Q: Hi I am chandra from B-1A. Why din't we go for solar lights for common area. It may save the electrical energy and too minimize the maintenance amount.
Its pretty simple maths actually. CFL bulbs are really cheap, whereas although its a one time payment the solar lights do cost more. Builders dont usually have them installed as an initial cost cutting measure. But personally i think getting it installed is an excellent idea.
If you are the owner or resident of apartment then you can join the owners group of the same and discuss with other owners/residents of the project in the group. To join simply login to commonfloor with your id and click on Owners Group .. select your apartment and click on discussion.. and post the above. That way the other apartment owners in your building would be able to view and comment on the same.
