Residents in a Buangkok HDB block have been left fuming following the installation of exhaust pipes on the rooftop of a neighbouring mall. One resident surnamed Sun complained about the smell of oil and smoke emanating from the exhaust pipes which are visible from her flat window. The 44-year-old who lives at Block 999B Buangkok Crescent told Shin Min Daily News that her home faces Buangkok Square shopping mall. She purchased the high-rise unit early last year, and claimed that there was no such smell when renovations were ongoing then. The eight exhaust pipes on the mall's rooftop were install to get rid of the fumes from the F&B establishments inside the mall. «Every time I open the window there's an oil smell. It forces me to shut the windows or open them slightly.» Sun installed an air purifier in her home, and has placed several fragrance bags around the house to combat the smell. She has also made complaints through the OneService app, but was told that the installation of the exhaust pipes comply with regulations as they did not directly face her flat.
