GREEN FEATURES

Energy efficiency:

• Passive design: no glazing areas on the west façade and a WWR of 3.1% on the east façade. Also, a thermal simulation was performed at early design stage to optimize glazing selection
• Building envelope: low-E double glazing used
• HVAC: COP improvement of 49.1% over QCVN 09:2013/BXD requirements
• Artificial lighting: LPD lower than 5 W/m2
• Water heating: heat-pump water heater with a COP of 4.2 has been installed
• Also, 95% of appliances (based on rated power) are labelled as energy-efficient,
• A solar PV plant of 9.6 kWp was installed on the rooftop

Water efficiency:

• Use of water efficient taps, showers and washing machine.
• Drinking water filtration system installed (including sediment filter, carbon filter and UV filter)

Health and Comfort:

• 95.2% of the habitable spaces have sufficient fresh air supply through natural ventilation
• Use of low-VOC paints, coatings, adhesives, sealants and floorings.
• 73.4% of the habitable spaces have sufficient daylighting

Others:

• All floorings made of exposed concrete
• Project site is an infill site, located near public transportation services and near basic services,
• Pot plants have been installed on the rooftop and on all balconies
• 68.4% of the paved and roof area limits heat island effect (with most of the roof covered with solar PV panels)
