jaCKY777 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2010 Yes , I stay at 22th floor... its very noisy... happens late at night occasionally call town council. they should know what to do by now. - mi olso can hear it every nite. Was wondering wat causes it? - wen recce around e common corridor & staircases, i discovered dat some pipes were missing. - at e staircase mid-landing, there is a vertical stainless steel pipe near e parapet/low wall. - i remember clearly, this pipe used 2 have a T-joint connect out 2 a short pipe with meter & gauges. This short pipe then connect 2 another T-joint out (forms a C-shape), connect bak 2 e main vertical pipe. - this short pipe with meter & gauges is no more in sight. Remains r e 2 gatevalves after e 2 T-joints. - was kinda shock. So wen on 2 check out other staircases. True enough, all of this short stainless steel pipes with meter & gauges r gone. - how many r there in blk 79A -79E? How much do this pipes & gauges worth? - base on my assumption, e leaking of air from this pipes, had caused this whistling sound. - somebody shd call TC 2 complain abt it. - if no action taken, mayb can send in e missing pipes pix 2 STOMP, title: Missing pipes create sound nuisance 2 residents, TC do nothin'. Gossip-> - heard dat e infamous bak kuk teh shop (opp, at Central) had ceased operation. - new pet's stuff store at central, replaced e tit-bits shop. - new vehicle access road is being constructed at e junction b4 e point blk beside MRT stn. Hope it wil ease e jam there in e morning. - 2 vacant stalls r available for rent in our beluv Foodpark. - e prawn mee at blk 85, so so only. - e 'saloon' dnstairs got standard. Mi tried 'Hairtech'. Can say e skill & technic is comparable 2 those branded saloon. - e neighbours i'd met most 4 e pass mths outside dis forum-> babymaro & meepok, dracula & wife, stay79 & family, Roy777 & wife, ... & some non-forumers. - wonder where r e other forumers???

ahloon 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2010 hi jacky777, On the topic of whining water pipes, for my case, i found out that the noises were coming out from the pressure relief valves that were built with the pressure gauges. The town council contractor came and tweaked the water pressure from the riser outside my unit. I'm not sure exactly what he tweaked, but the whining noise were gone after that. One thing for sure, my unit's water pressure remains the same after his "tuning". On a side note, did anyone notice that the lifts in 79C were dripping water everytime there's heavy rain?

Actually i am about to engage one of them already, so far seems good and can pass most of my requirements. Will probabaly update when they start or when they pass me the 3D pics. Anyway while waiting for my ID to come up with the designs i actually already did a preliminary one myself to get an idea for the size of the house before i got my keys. Relatively simple one without textures though ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7lUoQwgHVQ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually i already did the 3D layout and my friend asked me to post pics, haa haa .. so i did up the video instead lah .. haa haa .. Anyway i am level 30+ facing North ... heh heh Oh yeah by the way any of you guys staying at 79 on the 30+ floors have installed Rain Shower / City Gas or Central heating combination? any problems with the pressure or the heating? I know a storage heater will definitely solve the issues of pressure and heating but its just so big and since we dun have a service yard, it gets quite unsightly in the small kitchen Edited April 1, 2010 by robvandam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
