    Which utility systems are considered Common Parts within a Jointly Owned Property?

    Ali Faizan Syed1 min read0 viewsUpdated 1/2/2026
    Law No. (6) of 2019 specifies that equipment and systems for main utilities serve more than one unit and are thus Common Parts. This includes electricity generators, lighting systems, and heating or cooling equipment. It also covers water mains, sewer pipes, gas pipes, and telecommunications towers. Crucially, elevators, tanks, generators, and mechanical ventilation systems are shared assets. Any equipment used to measure the supply of Utility Services to multiple units is also managed as a common part to ensure the property's overall operation.
