Tanjong Pagar & Chinatown

Shophouses, conservation walk-ups, and new-build condos side by side. Aircon installations here navigate tight spaces and heritage restrictions.

What affects aircon systems here

District 2 runs from the conservation shophouses of Chinatown through to the high-rise condos of Tanjong Pagar. The mix spans pre-war walk-ups with narrow airwells, mid-rise HDB blocks around Cantonment, and newer towers along the Tanjong Pagar corridor. Building age varies widely, which means the aircon infrastructure — wiring, drainage, pipe runs — varies just as much.

Conservation shophouses have limited outdoor unit placement options. Condenser units are often mounted on rear walls or rooftops, making access for servicing and repairs more involved.

Older walk-up flats in the Chinatown and Cantonment area may have single-phase electrical supply that cannot support multi-split systems without an upgrade.

Newer condos along Tanjong Pagar and Wallich Street are fully glazed towers with high solar gain on west-facing units, similar to the Marina Bay profile.
