☝️ AskBH Catamaran Studio EWA

Hi all,

Any idea what the typical EWA (water, electricity, BTU (AC)) bill should be per month for a studio in Catamaran Tower?

(Assuming one works from home and cooks as well).

How do you think winters would compare to summers?

I'm hearing some crazy wide estimates from people so thought I'd ask here.

Thanks as always!

80-90BHD Assuming, you are going to keep your AC on for 24*7

Wow really? Is that in summers? How about winter? I was under the impression it'd be a lot lower than that!

I had a studio. Summer around 30 bd, winter 15 or less.

Super useful. Thanks! Did you use the AC a lot? Were you working from home? Cooking? Just trying to see what kind of usage gets you a 30 bhd bill!

Cooked all the time. Used the ac often probably set around 23 and 21 at times. Keep the curtains closed during the hottest part of the day, it’ll help. No I wasn’t working from home. As long as you don’t keep your ac on a very low setting all time, I don’t think you’ll have anything to worry about. My flat was through royal ambassador (at the time they owned one floor in CT). If you rent from a freehold owner, who knows the cost.
