All that's left is the electricity which is at a minimum because your big users of energy (oven, range, and dryer) are powered by gas, hot water is provided by a boiler room (so no electricity for the water heater), and cold air is provided by a water chiller system on the roof, all you pay for is the interior blower. It is easier to maintain over time in comparison to wood or block and stucco construction. It is good for sound absorption, as well as fire resistance, and structures with pre-cast concrete are subject to lower insurance because of strength and the ability to withstand fire and wind. Pre-cast panels are great at energy insulation. Grand Central is the only condominium community in Channelside built with pre-cast concrete. Double Pane, UV Resistant, High Efficiency Windows further prevent noise and enhance temperature control.
