Re:Considering DIY'ing a Brivis Ducted Heater - 2007/09/28 05:06
Thanks for the order - all the best with the installation.
I would cut the holes before the carpet goes down for a few reasons:
1 - you can see where the joists are with a timber floor (makes life a little easier) 2 - you won't have to risk damaging your new carpet
Cut the hole 306mm x 106mm to allow for the boot thickness. Test it when the kit arrives to ensure a snug fit with the register.
With the cutting - it doesn't really matter where - just make sure you have the room underneath and your not going to cut a hole above a joist, bearer, sewer pipe, gas line, water pipe etc etc etc
If it was my place, i'd be more interested in the distance off the window so curtains aren't affected and it looks good in that position - no one is going to notice if half or a full floor board is cut... (just my humble opinion)
let us know how the installation goes!
