<strong>The</strong> design of the building included lots of elements to let in bountiful<br />
sunlight. Windows <strong>and</strong> floor to ceiling glasses were massively utilized,<br />
allowing maximum natural light in the clubhouse, tower lobbies<br />
<strong>and</strong> apartments <strong>and</strong> bringing the natural picturesque scene to the<br />
residents. Breezeways were reserved in all towers to match with the<br />
mass l<strong>and</strong>scape coverage of the estates. It helps to improve the air<br />
circulation for dispersing heat <strong>and</strong> pollutants within the site boundary<br />
<strong>and</strong> maintain a comfortable living environment for our residents.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Management Company successfully obtained the full support from<br />
the Owners’ Committee <strong>and</strong> owners of Isl<strong>and</strong> Resort to continuously<br />
promote environmental protection <strong>and</strong> energy efficiency works for<br />
years. In 2004, a series of improvement<br />
works had been conducted, including<br />
the dismantlement of an energy saving<br />
lamp in the lobby of each residential<br />
floor, replacement of all T8 tubes <strong>and</strong><br />
electromagnetic ballast in lobbies<br />
<strong>and</strong> staircases with T5 tubes <strong>and</strong> HF<br />
electronic ballast <strong>and</strong> frequent review<br />
of the operation hours of common<br />
facilities etc. <strong>The</strong> energy consumption<br />
was kept to the minimum usage rate<br />
with 1,040,000 kWh saved after a<br />
year <strong>and</strong> at a reduced consumption<br />
equivalent to just 13.2% of that in<br />
2004. Around $1,000,000 electricity<br />
charge was ultimately waived through<br />
the captioned works. In view of these<br />
remarkable achievements, Isl<strong>and</strong> Resort<br />
won the “Silver Award” (Residential<br />
Building) of the “1st Hong Kong<br />
Energy Efficiency Awards” organized<br />
by the Electrical & Mechanical Services<br />
