Waste management measures, recycling of materials and schedule of waste collection will be provided by TCM to the owners or occupiers once the community is operational.

8.2 Waste Management Rules

VILLA LANTANA | 40 8.4 Tips for Sustainable Home Management 8.5. Irrigational Water Safety

• To ensure cooling efficiency, close all external windows and doors and shade all windows. All Villa owners and residents are notified that the water supplied to the street hydrants and irrigation systems is treated sewage effluent and not potable water therefore is not suitable • Set air conditioner controls at the highest temperature setting at which you still feel cool for drinking. The irrigation system must not be tampered with or used by any Villa owner or enough; 25ºC is usually adequate. Each 1°C increase of the thermostat setting will save resident (or their occupiers, invitees or contractors) for any reason whatsoever (including but about 10% on your energy usage. not limited to the irrigation of Villa gardens or washing of terraces, etc.).

• The installation of ceiling fans is an energy efficient way to reduce the use of air conditioning due to the ‘wind chill’ factor created by the ceiling fans. There are several companies who will supply and fit ceiling fans in Dubai who will be able to provide advice and guidance on the installation of ceiling fans.

• Unplug your appliances when they’re not in use as TVs, computers, microwaves and even some washing machines have a ‘standby’ mode, which means they’re still using energy even when they’re not in use.

• Buy appliances with a good energy rating.

• Although they usually cost more to buy, most front-loader washing machines save money over time and are kinder to the environment because they use less power, water and detergent than top loaders.

• Choose an energy-efficient fridge. Your fridge/freezer is working non-stop and the energy it consumes adds up quickly. Look for a model that uses a hydrocarbon, such as butane or pentane, as the refrigerant and/or blowing agent for the insulation foam.

• Invest in water-efficient goods when you need to replace household products. You can now buy water-efficient showerheads, taps, washing machines, dishwashers and many other water-saving products.
