Utilities
Electricity
All units in Elite Residence are individually metered for electricity & water consumption by DEWA. Accounts are established privately between the occupier and DEWA, and consumption billed directly to the unit occupant.
Unit Owners contribute to the cost of all water and electricity used by the common areas of the building through their service charge contributions.
The occupant of each unit - whether a tenant or Owner, is fully responsible for their individual DEWA bills. Occupants will set up their own private account when moving in. Your agent or Building Management can assist in the process for a small fee.
Chilled Water
Chilled water is provided by a chiller plant located within the building and so Elite residents do not rely on supply from Palm District Cooling or Empower. This chiller provides chilled water to all the common areas in the building and to each of the individual apartments.
Neither the common areas of the building nor the individual apartments are metered for measurement of individual consumption by users so all cooling costs for the apartments and the common areas are combined into one communal bill payable by the Owners Association. This cost is included in the service charges payable by each unit owner, in accordance with the unit entitlements of that unit.
As chilled water is paid by the Owners through their service charges.
