What happens next?

 

We’ll email you to confirm we’ve received your order and are processing it, and then again when it’s left our warehouse and reached our partner,
AIT Home Delivery.

AIT Home Delivery will then be in touch by SMS and Email to confirm your delivery date, and will contact you on the day before delivery with an estimated time one-hour delivery slot, which they will confirm on the day of delivery.

If the item you ordered is very heavy (135kg or more), or if the delivery address is outside of our standard delivery area, AIT Home Delivery will send you an SMS and Email asking you to book your delivery slot with them directly.

What you need to do

 

  • Before you order, make sure the measurements of the installation area match the dimensions of your chosen appliance. See our refrigerator buying guide for more information
  • Make sure the route from your front door to wherever you want the appliance to be installed is clear and free from obstructions
  • Ensure that there’s a working plug socket within 1 metre of where the appliance will be placed
  • Once the refrigerator is unpacked and moved into position, we recommend you leave it to stand for 3 hours before turning it on. This gives time for the cooling gas to settle
  • If you choose Collection and Recycling, you must disconnect your appliance, fully drain of water (where applicable), and make it easily accessible for collection
