Description

K B Unit probably refers to a Kitchen Bathroom Unit. After extensive research, the Ministry of Works introduced a standardised boiler unit that sat between the kitchen and bathroom of their prefabricated houses. This economised on space and time as well as the associated costs of reduced pipe work.
