To use a fridge in hall, it has to be declared, and you’ll have to pay a fixed monthly fee to cover electricity costs. For A/C, NTU has just switched to an A/C mobile app pay-per-use system. Read on for more!

Fridge

DECLARATION

In SOME halls, like Hall 14/15, the socket for fridges is locked, and will only be unlocked for units which have declared ownership of a fridge. However, this is not the case in many halls.

​

That said, in all halls, Hall Office requires any fridge to be declared. These fridges will receive a sticker to show their status.

 

Fridges must be declared at least 1 day before use. 

​

Failure to declare will incur a double charge of $160.

 

The max fridge size is 60 by 60 by 60cm.

​

During the semester, you may receive an email titled “Notification of Fridge Declaration and Payment”. Although it says “Your action is required”, this is a mass email, and if you have no fridge, you can ignore it.

​

FEES

The monthly fee is fixed at $80 per sem.

 

GETTING A FRIDGE

If you’re looking for a cheap deal, look out on NTU marketplace for second hand fridges! Prices can get quite low ($40-60) during the end of sem and the end of summer (when everyone is moving out).

Air Conditioning

All halls with A/C in NTU have now switched to a mobile app. This will be used both to pay for A/C (on an hourly basis - $0.39 -  when you use it) and as a remote to control the A/C. 

There will be a room-specific QR code to scan and pair your app to your room’s A/C.
