Cool pool lights Enjoy an exhilarating night swim under the stars with our newly installed underwater lights at the pools in Towers A & C. These LED lights will give you a clear, unobstructed view of your pool, especially after dark.

With enhanced visibility, we hope that this chill-out zone is as safe as can be.

rule refresher

Here’s a section for your home, pets, and property to ensure a peaceful, safe and clean community.

SUMMERTIME & PETS

KEEP IT CLEAN

• Pets with white-colored ears and short-nosed pets are prone to summer-related health risks. Limit exercise time outdoors.

• Please pick up after your pets.

• No excessive barking. Please respect your neighbours.

• While travelling, ensure that pets are safely relocated to avoid distress.

• Please use waste bags that fit the chute door and ensure there is no spillage.

• Bulky/large items, liquid, or hazardous waste are not to be disposed of through the chute.

• Items left in the common areas or corridors are a fire hazard and hindrance. Keep your community clutter-free for a safe exit during an emergency.

RESPECT OTHERS

BALCONY ETIQUETTE

• Photography at the pool encroaches upon others’ privacy. Tuck those cameras away.

• Loud parties or noisy work are not allowed after 10 pm. Be considerate.

• Avoid storing items on the balcony.

External structures are not permitted.

• Plants can be placed on balconies.

Be mindful of the community aesthetics.

PARKING ETIQUETTE • Keep your parking bay free of stored items.

• Do not misuse the visitor parking bays.

COMMUNITY AMENITIES • Please do not bring children under 16 along to the community gym.

• Amenities are designated to different age groups keeping in mind safety and wellbeing of all residents.

give your home a health check

Have an electrical specialist check your home’s circuits to avoid potential mishaps.

Never leave water heaters switched for long hours to avoid overheating, leakage or breakdown.

A routine inspection is helpful.

Your AC unit is working hard this summer. Notice any abnormal noise from the fan coil unit? Get a service provider right away to check it out.

Going away for a while? Maintain your AC at an optimal temperature to avoid water consideration through the chilled water network. It could cause damages to home interiors, mold formation, and electrical failure from high humidity.

Unclog your drains regularly to avoid water leakage into your home or homes below you.

HOT TIP: Find the best summer deals on mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services on Emaar One app.

vacay hacks for a secure home Secure all entryways, including the windows and balcony.

Unplug electrical items to avoid fire risks.

Leave your home clean and tidy to avoid pest infestation.

Check for any gas leaks before you lock up.

Make sure your pest control is up to date.

Don't neglect your plumbing - turn off the main water valves for faucets, sink and toilets to avoid water leaks.

Put your newspaper subscriptions on hold till you are back.

Leave your contact details with a trusted friend in case of an emergency.
