Hi All,
I have took VP of my condo unit last year December, my happy mood was immediately spoilt when I saw 2 big compressors in the kitchen yard!
When we bought this condo, we were told the condo adapt Water Cooled Air-cond System (WCAS) and therefore the location of AC ledge / compressors are NEVER marked in SPA layout.

They are many owners unhappy with this, the kitchen is now like sauna, and it poses safety and health hazard to the residents.
We have nego with developer but they are still dragging!!!! and in another 18 months time the defects liability period would be over!!!

May I check with the experts here:

1. Is developer's statement true:
"Even though AC ledge is not marked in main parcel, but it doesn't mean we couldn't install it at yard"
Developer claimed they didn't mark it in BP as they need more flexibility.

2. We also wonder whether AC ledge is Accessory Parcel. Developer should sell the accessory parcel sqft at lower price? Let's say there are 2 scenarios:
2.1 AC ledge is registered in BP as "Accessory Parcel": Is developer justified to install AC ledge there? And can they just take up our built up area?
2.2 AC ledge is not registered in BP as "Accessory Parcel": Is developer justified to install AC ledge there? And can they just up our built up area?

3. Developer claimed they can only install AC ledge / compressor within main parcel now. They cannot shift it just outside the yard (at the wall of our master bedroom) as it is already consider as Common Area?? What could we do now?

4. Let’s set a scenario, finally we are able to shift the compressor out of yard (maybe put it outside the yard, with extended platform). After this was done, JMB formed. Would we get into trouble when JMB set house rules said that this AC ledge must be removed because it affect condo appearance and so on?

Really appreciate your kindness and advices! I spent RM700++ K and end up heart broken icon_question.gif icon_question.gif icon_question.gif icon_question.gif icon_question.gif

1. Any documented proof that the condo was going to adapt WCAS?
2. Isn’t there any AC ledge at all on site?
3. Floor plan in your SPA also never showed any AC ledge space?
*
1. Yes, in DMC.
2. No, they change WCAS to split unit without informing us, and decide to put there as they never allocate AC ledge at first place.
3. No, but developer said never show doesn't mean can't put there.
