Your Name & Address (incl postcode): 

Telephone Number(s): 

QUESTION 1:
Number of rooms to duct to? (90% of installations are 3 bedrooms and a bathroom - see note below)

• # of bedrooms: 
• # of bathrooms: 
• # other rooms:

(Note: bathrooms are people's favourite room to duct to because it makes the exhaust fans work three times as well, it keeps the chill off the ceramics, it dries the towels and shower screens, clears condensation and mould and generally keeps it fresh smelling.)

QUESTION 2:
Height of ceiling? (Enter 1, 2 or 3 on this line)

1. Normal (2.4m)
2. Medium (2.7 to 3m)
3. High (3m+)

QUESTION 3:
Height of roof at highest point? (Enter 1 to 4 on this line) 

1. No manhole and no space to crawl through at all
2. Crawling space on knees only
3. People can stoop and move around
4. People can stand straight with no problems

QUESTION 4:
What material is the roof made from? (Enter 1, 2 or 3 on this line) 

1. Tiles
2. Corrugated iron
3. Other (please describe):

QUESTION 5:
What type of primary heater(s) do you have? (Enter 1 to 5 on this line) 

1. Heat Pump: 
2. Wood Heater/Stove: 
3. Gas Heater: 
4. Electric Heater: 
5. Other (please describe): 

QUESTION 6:
What type of ceiling insulation do you have? (Enter 1 to 4 on this line)
(NOTE: Optional question - no need to crawl around your roof cavity to find out!)

1. Glasswool Batts (itchy stuff like Pink batts, but often yellow)
2. Cellulose Blow-in (fluffy, granulated recycled paper, often called Charlie Fluff)
3. Rockwool (looks like granulated pink batts, but beige/light brown coloured)
4. Other / don't know

QUESTION 7:
How thick is the insulation, in terms of centimetres? (Measure away from the wooden joists as they tend to prop it up)
(Once again, this is totally optional, don't worry about sticking your head through the manhole if this is not convenient)

Some ceiling/roof types are not applicable... Here are some general indications of what's ok and what's not:

1. Pitched/gabled roof - the install teams needs to lay flexible insulated ducting in your roof cavity, stretching from the area above the main heater to the back corners of the bedrooms. Pitched roofs are great for access, but some have larger wooden bearers that may prevent us from accessing the edges of the ceiling.
2. Skillion (flat or low-angled  no roof cavity) - unfortunately there is not enough space to lay the ducting in these types of roofs.
3. Cathedral (usually high-pitched roof with multiple sides meeting at apex) - we often put the air intake at the top of the vertical wall that forms the side of the cathedral ceiling. This assumes that your cathedralceiling has an adjacent "pitched" roof cavity that we can access.
