Opportunity awaits 

passionate junior chef 

PASSIONATE: Gabby Sanders has always had an 

interest in cooking and says food can be used as a 

way to bring people together. 

Gabby Sanders is travelling to Australia to compete for a golden chef’s hat award. 

Reporter Emily Moorhouse talks to Sanders about her unlikely favourite foods as 

a child, her thought process behind a successful menu and why she is passionate 

about cooking 

GABBY SANDERS 

remembers trying to help her 

mum in the kitchen when she 

was a little girl was probably 

“quite annoying”. 

But fast forward 20 years 

and that curiosity in the kitchen 

has paid off – next month 

she will be in Melbourne 

representing the South Island 

in the grand finals of the 2022 

Nestlé Golden Chef’s Hat 

Award

Lengthy 

delay in 

centre 

rebuild an 

‘injustice’ 

• By Emily Moorhouse 

AN 11-YEAR delay in rebuilding 

a community facility has been 

described as an “injustice” to a 

“forgotten suburb”. 

Shirley locals were 

promised a new community 

centre after the old one at 10 

Shirley Rd was demolished 

following the February 22, 2011 

earthquake. 

However, the city council is 

only now starting the discussion 

of a possible rebuild. 

Community group Shirley 

Road Central chair Jennifer 

Dalziel has been advocating for 

a rebuild since the old facility 

was demolished, and described 

the whole process as “hugely 

frustrating”. 

“My position is the injustice 

of it,” she said. 

“They call Shirley the forgotten 

suburb, and recently with 

Emmett St flooding and no 

one came to do anything, it’s 

like Shirley is just left out of 

everything.” 

Dalziel said the city council told 

locals there would be a rebuild of 

the centre at its original site but in 

2016, the idea was dropped. 

In 2018, there were two 

feasibility studies carried out 

but both were rejected, Dalziel 

said.

No decision 

yet to 

appeal 

declining of 

rehabilitation 

facility 


THE DEPARTMENT of 

Corrections has until February 9 

to appeal after permission to build 

a contentious rehabilitation centre 

for violent offenders in St Albans 

was declined. 

However, it is remaining tightlipped 

on whether or not it is likely 

to do so. 

Last week the Bristol Street 

Resource Consent Hearing panel 

declined to grant resource consent 

for the Bristol St facility, fo lowing 

a hearing in November. 

The proposal would have seen 

up to 12 men serving sentences 

of home detention at 14 Bristol St 

while participating in a violenceprevention 

programme. Men 

with significant untreated mental 

health issues would not be eligible 

to participate in the programme. 

In their decision, city council 

appointed commissioners Anthony 

Hughes-Johnson QC and Ken 

Lawn said they were not satisfied 

the site was appropriate for such a 

facility. 

Corrections acting regional 

commissioner Chris O’Brien- 

Smith did not answer Nor’West 

New’s question on whether an 

appeal would be made, but said 

corrections would spend the 

next few weeks reflecting on the 

commissioners’ findings.

Third feasibility study for centre under way 

• From page 1 

In May last year, Dalziel, along 

with Shirley residents passionate 

about the rebuild of the community 

centre, created a petition 

advocating for it. They gained more 

than 1200 signatures from the 

community. 

They presented the petition, along 

with two letters from Christchurch 

East MP Poto Williams and 

Christchurch Central MP Duncan 

Webb, to the city council as part 

of a submission for the Long Term 

Plan. It was then agreed that a 

feasibility study would be carried 

out for the rebuild. 

That feasibility study has begun 

with staff gathering information on 

cost estimates for four development 

options. 

City council head of community 

support and partnerships John 

Filsell said once the information 

was gathered, a discussion will be 

had with the Waipapa Papanui 

Innes Community Board on how 

the feasibility study should proceed. 

The date for this 

discussion is yet to be 

finalised, Filsell said. 

He said operational 

funding for the feasibility 

study was included in the 

Long Term Plan and capital 

funding of approximately 

$3,000,000 has been set 

aside in the plan over the 

years 2030/31. 

Innes Ward councillor Pauline 

Cotter said she can understand why 

Dalziel has described the process as

2008) was a space for locals and community groups to gather. 

an “injustice”. 

“I can empathise with the 

community for having a 

community centre that was 

then gone,” she said. 

“I feel like this area is 

kind of almost last to have 

areas restored . . . Shirley, in 

particular, needs the stability.” 

Cotter said she fought 

alongside Papanui Ward 

councillor Mike Davidson to 

get the money for a feasibility 

study allocated to the city council’s 

Long Term Plan. 

She said the wheels are starting to 

turn now, and hopes the feasibility 

study will be presented to the 

community board by the end of 

the year. 

Dalziel said the whole process 

has been an “uphill battle against 

authorities” but has hope that 

the community facility will be 

restored. 

“They’ve [city council] agreed to 

do something but what it’s going to 

be, we don’t know.”

Let’s use water 

like we oughta 

Christchurch and Banks Peninsula households 

that regularly use much more water than 

average will pay extra for their water supply 

from October. 

Most households are using less than 700 litres of water a day and won’t be charged. 

Thanks for using water like you oughta! 

A fairer way to manage our city’s water supply 

We don’t charge ratepayers for water itself. We charge for delivering it 

– through our network of pipes, pumps and other infrastructure. 

When the district’s water use doubles over summer, the cost of 

delivering water goes up significantly too. That increase in demand 

isn’t spread evenly, with most of the increase due to a small 

proportion of households. 

When demand on our water supply network is at its peak we’re at risk 

of not being able to supply enough water to properties, which could 

have serious impacts on public health, and our ability to fight fires. 

If everyone uses water like we oughta, we won’t need to spend as 

much money expanding our water supply network, and it will also 

improve the sustainability of our city’s water supply, which helps us 

achieve our climate change goals. 

Seek the leak and reduce your use 

You can use our Water Reporter online tool to find out how much 

water your household uses before charges come into effect in 

October 2022 – visit ccc.govt.nz/WaterReporter 

If your household is using a lot of water there might be a leak on 

your property. You have time to find the leak and get it fixed. 

Our website tells you about how to read your water meter, check for 

leaks and reduce your water use*. 

*Some properties’ water use is not recorded on the Water Reporter. 

This includes: properties with a shared water meter, properties 

that haven’t had their water meter read and properties without 

a water meter. 

How the new rate will work 

The new rate will apply to any household that uses, on average, 

more than 700 litres a day. We’ll read your water meter roughly 

every 90 days, and for every 1000 extra litres you use during that 

period, you’ll pay $1.35. 

We know there are some reasons households might have high water 

use. If any of these circumstances apply, you might be eligible for 

a remission: 

Unexpected high use due to a leak – if you can show the leak 

was repaired promptly. 

Personal circumstances such as medical conditions. 

Families with nine members or more who are using water 

responsibly. 

High water users can expect to receive their first bill between January 

and March 2023. 

What does this mean for tenants and landlords? 

The property owner, or the person who receives the property’s rates 

bill, will also receive the excess water supply bill. The landlord must 

pay the bill and can then ask the tenant to reimburse them. 

If high water use is due to a leak, it’s the owner’s responsibility to get 

it fixed and apply for a remission. 

Landlords should let their tenants know they have a responsibility to 

be good water users and will need to pay for excess water use. 

Know and reduce your water use

‘The way it tastes is the most important’ 

• From page 1 

Sanders, 23, won gold at the 

regional heats to qualify for the 

grand finals, held at Ara Institute 

of Canterbury, where she is 

studying towards a diploma in 

cookery level 5. 

She received gold for her twocourse 

menu of hoisin glaze pork, 

black vinegar dumpling and 

umami broth and a dessert of 

chai spice cake with pear, coffee, 

pecan and white chocolate. 

“It was surreal, it didn’t actually 

feel real because I wasn’t 

expecting it to happen at all,” 

Sanders said. 

She had competed in the heats 

last year, narrowly missing out on 

bronze so wanted to really push 

herself this year. 

Sanders will be competing 

against 12 other chefs, with 

one other chef from the North 

Island and the rest from all over 

Australia. 

The winner will be awarded an 

AU$10,000 cash prize, something 

Sanders said would be an amazing 

opportunity to help expand 

her cooking equipment. 

“I’d be able to go out and immerse 

myself in the food culture 

in Christchurch and around New 

Zealand a wee bit more which 

would be fantastic as well.” 

While Sanders has always had 

an interest in cooking, she never 

considered it to be her professional 

career. 

After leaving Lincoln High 

School, Sanders worked full-time 

HELPING HAND: As a child, Gabby Sanders loved to help 

her mother out in the kitchen. Here she is at three-yearsold 

with a cake. 

at a supermarket, still figuring 

out what she wanted to do. 

Her co-worker Jeremy, who was 

going through a career change 

to be a chef, encouraged her to 

study cookery, so she decided to 

give it a go and enrolled at Ara. 

Sanders said she is still in 

contact with Jeremy and he was 

stoked to hear about her securing 

a spot in the grand finals competition. 

Sanders said her mother is an 

“amazing” cook and growing up, 

she was encouraged to eat like an 

adult and try new things. 

“We’d always be pushed to try 

new things. As a kid some of my 

favourite foods were blue cheese 

and pâté and olives which lots of 

kids don’t really enjoy. 

“I really like how food sort of 

brings people together, it’s something 

to enjoy with a group.” 

Sanders lives with her partner 

in St Albans and when asked 

if they enjoy her cooking she 

laughed. 

“You’d think so but we eat a lot 

of curries and baked beans and 

stuff, just general easy dinners.” 

Although, she did say she’s 

been enjoying cooking heavy, 

richer meals during the colder 

weather, such as lamb shanks and 

beef stew. 

She said the most challenging 

thing to cook is anything she’s 

unfamiliar with as it can take a 

while to get her head around it. 

“I think the hardest thing to 

make is probably something 

you’re too scared to have a go at . 

. . [but] the only thing worse than 

messing something up is just not 

trying in the first place.” 

Sanders is “hesitantly confident” 

for the grand finals and 

while she’s excited to give it a go, 

she’s also still processing it all. 

During the regional heats, 

chefs were judged on presentation, 

taste and the use of ingredients 

down to how clean they 

are in the kitchen, general food 

handling and how much food 

they waste. 

“You’re being watched the 

whole time, it’s a bit scary,” Sanders 

said. 

For each competition, chefs are 

given a set ingredient list which 

they have to build their menu 

around. 

Sanders said she likes to sit 

down and brainstorm what flavours 

would work well together 

then, with the help of her tutors, 

figure out the best way to execute 

each piece of the dish. 

“You can always tweak it and 

improve it and everyone’s taste is 

different,” she said. 

“It’s a group effort to get 

something down that majority of 

people would enjoy eating.” 

Sanders works on what the 

dish will look like last, once she’s 

nailed the taste. 

“The way it tastes is the most 

important because it could look 

amazing and just taste awful and 

there’s not much point in that.” 

As for kitchen fails, nothing 

sprung to mind for Sanders, 

although she admitted she has 

dropped and burnt her fair share 

of things. 

“When you mess something 

up it’s how you deal with it and 

make it work in the end, it’s 

always a really good learning 

experience because when you 

make a big mistake you’re always 

going to remember it and not do 

it again.” 

Outside of study, Sanders 

works part-time at The Monday 

Room as a commis chef, a job 

she scored from completing work 

experience there as part of her 

study. 

As a commis chef, Sanders 

assists the other chefs with food 

preparation, particularly working 

on entrées and desserts, although 

she said she likes to give everything 

a go. 

When Sanders graduates she 

said she’s open to moving around 

a bit and maybe spending some 

time overseas but for now she is 

happy where she is, doing what 

she loves.

Animals on this design all endangered 

MADDISON BOTT and Olivia 

Lynch from Breens Intermediate 

have won first place in Toi, the 

country’s largest annual wearable 

arts competition for schools. 

Their entry, named Tomorrow 

Is Too Late, highlights the plight 

of endangered animals. The 

duo said: “We are here to show 

awareness for our endangered 

animals around the world . . . 

“All the animals on this 

outfit are endangered and if we 

don’t act now they will become 

extinct, just like the dinosaurs. 

Every little bit counts. One 

person can make a difference. 

Change now because tomorrow 

is too late.” 

The top 10 national finalists 

in both the open and junior 

sections have all won a sewing 

machine from Bernina and a 

World of WearableArt prize pack 

Winners Maddison Bott, 

Olivia Lynch and Olivia Varley 

have won tickets to attend the 

2022 World of WearableArt 

show in Wellington and a 

voucher from The Fabric Store. 

Toi is now Aotearoa’s largest 

wearable arts opportunity for 

school students, produced in 

collaboration with WOW. It 

originated as part of performing 

arts competition Showquest, but 

rapidly grew into a standalone 

platform due to enthusiasm and 

demand the event organisers 

saw from art, fashion and design 

focused students. 

FIRST PLACE: Breens Intermediate students Maddison 

Bott and Olivia Lynch with their winning design. 

The goal is for students to get 

a taste of WOW while at school, 

and to nurture budding young 

designers who may one day enter 

the globally celebrated WOW 

competition. This year was the 

biggest yet, with 285 individual 

entries of wearable art garments 

throughout the country. 

Toi national producer Kelsey 

Moller said: “Each year the 

creativity, construction and 

out-of-the-box thinking steps 

up a notch. We were blown away 

by the ideas and stories students 

brought to life in their garments 

this year.” 

Teams were judged by Dame 

Suzie Moncrieff and Heather 

Palmer from WOW on four 

main areas -–concept, originality 

and innovation, quality of 

construction, and health and 

safety (how safe the garment was 

for the model to wear and move 

around in).

Finish your roast meal with a 

Venison roast 

Serves 4 

1 salt and freshly ground pepper 

700g lamb roast 

2 cloves garlic 

Ingredients 

Directions 

Marinade: 

½ cup red wine 

1 cinnamon quill, crushed 

2 star anise 

6 whole cloves 

1 tbsp honey 

Small strip orange peel 

1 tbsp olive oil 

Roast: 

400g venison 

Freshly ground black pepper to 

taste 

2 tbsp olive oil 

Sauce: 

1 cup (250ml) meat glaze or 

good beef stock 

Directions 

To make the marinade, combine 

wine, spices, honey and orange 

peel in a saucepan. Slowly bring 

to the boil. Simmer for 1 minute, 

then cool. When cold, add olive 

oil. 

Place venison in a plastic bag. 

Pour marinade over. Move meat 

around so it is well coated. Refrigerate 

for at least one hour or up to 

8 hours. 

Return to room temperature 

before cooking. Preheat oven to 

200 deg C. 

Remove meat from marinade 

and pat dry. Reserve marinade for 

the sauce. Season. 

Heat olive oil in a pan. Sear 

venison until lightly browned 

on all sides. Place in a small 

roasting pan in the oven. Roast 

for 20-25 minutes for medium 

rare. 

Remove from oven and tent 

with foil. Cover with a thick towel 

and stand for 10 minutes. 

Meanwhile, strain marinade 

and bring to the boil. Add 

meat glaze or stock and simmer 

for 1-2 minutes. Serve with the 

venison. 

Great accompanied by baby red 

jacket potatoes, plus 4cm cubes 

of pumpkin and large broccoli 

florets, roasted with the venison. 

Tomato-stuffed mini lamb 

roasts with roast garlic 

Serves 4 

Ingredients 

⅓ cup tomato pesto 

⅓ cup ground almonds 

2 tbsp fresh oregano 

Heat oven to 200 deg C. To make 

the stuffing, place sun dried pesto, 

ground almonds and chopped 

fresh oregano in a bowl. Season 

with salt and pepper to taste and 

mix to combine. 

Trim any fat or sinew from 

the lamb (use 2 x 350g roasts). 

Season on both sides with salt 

and pepper and lay out flat on a 

board, skin-side down. Spread 

stuffing over the lamb pieces and 

roll them up to contain filling. Tie 

pieces with string to secure them 

into two parcels. 

Heat an ovenproof pan, add 

two tablespoons oil and sear lamb 

parcels for five minutes, turning 

to brown all over. 

Add two gloves of garlic, cut 

in half to the pan and place in the 

oven to roast for 25 minutes for 

medium-rare.

chocolate dessert or cake 

150gm unsalted butter, softened 

75gm caster sugar 

4 large free-range eggs, 

separated 

1 tsp pure vanilla extract 

150gm ground almonds or 

toasted hazelnuts 

12 toasted hazelnuts, reserved 

for decoration 

50gm dark chocolate, grated, to 

decorate 

Chocolate mousse: 

150gm dark chocolate, coarsely 

chopped 

30gm unsalted butter, cubed 

4 large free-range eggs, 

separated 

Banana, coconut and 

chocolate cake 

Serves 4 

Ingredients 

200gm milk chocolate 

1 large ripe banana, peeled and 

mashed 

2 tsp vanilla essence 

2 eggs, lightly beaten 

2 tbsp canola oil 

1 cup coconut milk 

¾ cup cane sugar 

2 and ½ cups plain flour 

2 tsp baking powder 

¾ cup desiccated coconut 

Directions 

Directions 

For the cake, preheat oven to 

170 deg C. Grease a 22cm spring 

form cake tin and line the base 

and sides with baking paper. 

Place the chocolate and coffee 

in a bowl set over a saucepan 

one-quarter full of simmering 

water to melt. Or microwave in 

short bursts. Stir until smooth 

then set aside. Place butter and 

sugar in a bowl and beat with 

an electric mixer until pale and 

creamy. 

Add vanilla and egg yolks, one 

at a time, beating well after each 

addition. Beat in the chocolate 

mixture and then stir in the 

ground hazelnuts. 

In a clean bowl, whisk egg 

whites until stiff peaks form. Use 

a large metal spoon to fold the 

egg whites into the chocolate 

mixture in two additions. Pour 

mixture into prepared tin and 

smooth the surface. Bake for 

40 minutes or until an inserted 

skewer comes out clean. Remove, 

cool in the tin. 

For the mousse, place chocolate 

and butter in a bowl set over 

a saucepan one-quarter full of 

simmering water to melt. Or 

microwave in short bursts. 

Stir until smooth. Add egg 

yolks, one at a time, stirring to 

combine. In a clean bowl, whisk 

egg whites until stiff peaks form. 

Fold egg whites into the chocolate 

mixture in two additions. The 

mixture may appear to split but 

keep folding and it will come 

together. 

To assemble, pour the mousse 

onto the cooled cake while it is 

still in the tin. Refrigerate for 

at least 4 hours, or preferably 

overnight. 

To serve, release the spring. 

Use a small knife to help ease the 

paper away from the cake. Peel 

off the paper and discard. Use 

a hot knife to cut the torte into 

wedges. 

Decorate with reserved 

hazelnuts and grated chocolate. 

Heat the oven to 180 deg C. 

Lightly grease and flour a 20- 

21cm square cake pan. Line the 

base with baking paper. Break 

chocolate into squares. Cut each 

square in half. 

Combine mashed banana, 

vanilla essence, eggs, oil and coconut 

milk. Stir in the sugar. Sift 

the flour and baking powder over 

the banana mixture. Fold in the 

coconut using a spatula. Fold in 

the chocolate — do not over-mix. 

Spoon into the cake pan. 

Bake for 50 minutes, or until 

a skewer inserted in the centre 

comes out clean. Cool in the pan 

for 10 minutes then turn out on 

to a wire rack.

Keep cosy with 

RD Petroleum 

this winter 

Netball that isn’t 

hard on the body 

• By Jaime Cunningham 

ON A freezing Tuesday 

night in Christchurch, 

16 walking netball 

fanatics, including two 

who had never played 

the game before, turn up 

to ‘Wiggle and Giggle’ 

at Christchurch’s only 

walking netball group. 

Christchurch Netball 

Centre has run walking 

netball for almost five 

years every Wednesday 

morning at Hagley Park. 

Unlike standard netball, 

walking netball players 

must keep at least part of 

their foot always in contact 

with the ground, so no 

jumping or running is allowed. 

The slower version of 

netball spiked in popularity 

across the world around 

2017, with many clubs in 

countries like Australia, 

England and New Zealand 

establishing walking netball 

groups. 

After hosting two successful 

night sessions this 

winter, the Christchurch 

group is looking to grow. 

CNC activator Julia van 

Dyk says, in the past, the 

group has included people 

with disabilities, those 

coming back from sporting 

injuries and people who 

just want to stay active. 

By hosting the two night 

sessions at the Bishopdale 

YMCA, those who would 

normally work on a 

Wednesday morning have 

been able to join in, too. 

Long-time walking 

netball volunteer Trudi 

MacKenzie has been participating 

since CNC first 

established the group 

almost five years ago and 

has led its organisation for 

the last three years. 

“Sometimes I feel like I 

laugh more in that hour 

(of netball) than for the 

rest of the week. It’s just 

really good physically and 

mentally.” 

MacKenzie says the 

number of participating 

had dropped during the 

Covid pandemic. Before 

the virus hit New Zealand 

in 2020, the CNC had 

three full walking netball 

teams. 

“We now struggle to 

get two full teams, and 

normally have about 10 to 

12 playing.” 

Allan Williams is one of 

two original walking netball 

members still playing 

this year. 

Despite sporting a few 

bandages and a slight 

weakness in one arm, he 

is a handy defender in the 

shooting circle. 

Until five years ago, he 

had “never played netball 

in [his] life”. 

Williams says he enjoys 

walking netball because 

it has kept him fit and 

helped him lose more than 

seven kilograms in six 

months. 

He’s been pushing for 

more days of walking 

netball events though 

recognises Covid has put 

off some. 

Van Dyk hopes that 

when the $20 million 

netball and futsal centre at 

Nga Puna Wai is finished 

more people will join 

walking netball at the new 

indoor facility. 

CNC’s walking netball 

is held at at Hagley Netball 

Courts from 10-11.30am 

every Wednesday. 

RD Petroleum (RDP) is a familiar sight 

for farm and rural residents around the 

Canterbury region, however now days urban 

residents also enjoy the same excellent 

customer service for which RDP is known for 

in rural communities, through their home 

heating diesel. 

RDP began its home heating diesel delivery 

service to the lower South Island’s main urban 

centres of Christchurch, Timaru, Dunedin 

and Invercargill a number of years ago. 

Customer demand has continued to increase 

year upon year, and RDP has responded 

with specialised improvements to its delivery 

equipment. 

The trucks that deliver RDP’s home heating 

diesel in each urban centre are drawn from 

the company’s extensive vehicle fleet. This 

means they have the latest communication 

and GPS tracking technology on board, so 

the operations team always know where they 

are and how far away they are from their next 

delivery stop. 

RDP’s home heating diesel trucks come 

equipped with a specially-designed hose, 

through which the diesel is pumped from 

the truck into house tanks. The length of 

the hose allows the trucks to access tanks 

without having to enter the property, avoiding 

damaging the driveway. RDP is the place to 

go if you require diesel conveniently delivered 

to your home and as a loyal RDP customer 

you’re offered discounted pricing and can 

become eligible for value-added benefits. 

For all enquiries please phone 

0800 44 00 14, or visit the RDP website at

HOME & HEATING 

Ground moisture barrier 

under low sub-floor 

Now with the colder and wetter weather on 

its way, home owners are focusing on ways 

to make their homes comfortable, warm 

and healthy for their families throughout 

winter. Rising damp is an issue that affects 

many of our older properties which suffer 

from poor, or no, ground moisture barrier. 

In Canterbury especially, post-quake, many 

people have relocated to homes that suffer 

from rising damp which can be associated 

with health problems. Independent tests have 

shown that up to 40 litres of water can rise 

from the ground and enter a house every day, 

leading to mildew, mould, condensation and 

musty smells. Moulds can produce various 

allergic reactions and the frail, elderly and 

very young are especially vulnerable. 

Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a 

locally owned and operated firm. The team 

understands the problems caused by rising 

damp and are there to help. They will come 

to your damp home and pump a lightweight, 

flowable foam concrete under your timber 

floored home. 

While insulation is important, it has been 

recognised that it is dampness that is the real 

villain in the house. The new Healthy Homes 

Standards introduced by the government 

effective from the 1st July 2019 now has 

a requirement to install ground moisture 

barriers, a key element in the armory to fight 

moisture in the home. 

Dr Larry Bellamy BE (hons) PhD in a 

report dated 1988: Foam Concrete Under 

Timber Floors: An Energy Analysis assessed 

the effects of placing Foam Concrete over 

damp soil and had this to say: Condensation 

on the underside of a timber floor can occur 

where the floor is suspended over damp 

ground and the inside air temperature falls 

close to the crawl space air temperature. 

Much energy is required to vaporize moisture 

that penetrates the structure. By avoiding 

underfloor condensation, foam concrete can 

reduce floor heat losses by up to 90%. 

• Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd can in most 

cases, install a Ground Moisture Barrier 

under the suspended wooden floor of your 

home, even when there is no crawl space. 

• BRANZ Appraised; Appraisal Number 961 

• Members of the Insulation Association of 

New Zealand. 

• We offer a free measure and quote in the 

Canterbury region with no obligations. 

• Assessments can be made in all other 

regions by arrangement. 

Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd 

now for your free, no obligation quote and 

complimentary appraisal of your underfloor 

ground moisture barrier needs.

What makes a great 

Heat Transfer System? 

There are a number of Heat Transfer 

systems on the market. Smooth-Air 

ventilation specialists offer a range of HTU 

Heat Transfer Units with carefully selected 

components to optimise the system: 

They use insulated duct to transfer 

the heated air with as little heat loss as 

possible. The fan moves sufficient air 

for the distance and number of rooms, 

without being noisy. The diffusers send the 

heat to the floor, not to skim the across the 

ceilings. All components are good quality 

- designed to operate for years without 

problems. 

Smooth-Air’s HTUs come in a range 

of options: One to four rooms, with or 

without thermostat and with a choice 

of grilles and diffusers. HTUs improve 

energy efficiency in your house, as you 

are using excess heat. They have low 

power consumption - only 80watts for 

the three room system. Circulating 

air through the house also reduces the 

risk of damp. 

You can also choose the HTU 

version with downjet diffusers, which 

throw the warm air downwards to 

the floor. These downjet diffusers can 

also be adjusted to regulate which 

room receives the most warm air. 

An average size living room requires 

2-4 kw of heating, yet appliances such 

as log burners generate heat in the 

region of 10 -20kw. This leaves an 

excess of 8 -16kw of heat which sits at 

high level in the heated room, usually 

above door level. 

Heat transfer units work best where very 

hot air has ‘stratified’ into a layer near the 

ceiling. So heat pumps, which circulate 

warm air around the room with no 

layering, are not suitable as a heat source 

by themselves. However, if you have both 

log burner and a heat pump, heat transfer 

systems with thermostat can work very 

well: The heat pump stops operating once 

the heat from the fire has heated the room, 

and the heat transfer kicks in above this 

point, once there is a layer of hot air at the 

ceiling. 

Contact Smooth-Air on 

0800 SMOOTH (0800 766 684) to ask 

how they can help you with your Heat 

Transfer, as well as any other ventilation 

requirements.
