Draught Stopper for Doors - FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Do I have to use the fitting packer?
A: The fitting packers has been provided to ensure the draught dodgers are fitted exactly the right distance from the face of the door. Not using the fitting packer also guarantees an inferior result.

Q: Does this product carry a warranty?
A: The Product carries a 2 year warranty. As the quality of the surface, however we cannot warranty the self adhesive seal as the quality of the surface and the surface preparation is beyond our control.

Q: How long will the product last for?
A: When correctly fitted, it should last for 10 years or more.

Q: Can we have draught dodgers 2.7m long?
A: No. You would need to join them.

Q: I want to treat my front door and my back door. Should I get a 2 door set or 2 x 1 door sets.
A: If your doors are single standard height doors, then a two door set will be sufficient. Otherwise, you will need 2 x 1 door sets.

Q: Can I get white draught dodgers with a brown seal?
A: No. But you can buy a spare set of seals in the colour of your choice (being either white or brown seals).

Q: Will ecoMaster come and install these for me?
A: The ecoMaster installation crew are available for full home energy efficiency retrofits. If you require one or two items to be installed, a local handyperson should be able to help you. Please ensure you show them the installation videos to ensure you get a quality result.

Q: I did not watch the videos and have stuck the draught dodgers onto the door in the wrong place. Now I can’t put the seals in.
A: Yes, unfortunately that is quite problematic. We do provide the videos to ensure you get a quality result. However, we can’t make you watch them. The dodgers can be removed from the door, but the self adhesive tape will not restick. You could nail or screw the draught dodgers on (in the correct place) using the fitting packer after you have watched the video.

Q: Will this help to reduce noise?

A: Yes, but if you particularly want an acoustic door seal, then you should consider the RP78.

Q: Are there any videos that will help me with installing?
A: All of our ecoMaster products have informative videos created by our Technical Director. This video will provide you with easy step by step instructions to assist with your DIY Install. You can find this by clicking the tab “INSTALL”.

Neat Solution

So far I have found the Draught Dodgers fairly easy to install on my casement windows. I have quite a few to install so I invested in a proper mitre saw which enables me to make perfect 90 degree cuts and also 75 degree cuts to match the angle of the bevel. This allows me to use all the off-cuts as there is more than enough wood for each window. I stained & varnished all the lengths first before installing and now have a really professional looking job.

Hi Allan,

We're delighted to hear that the installation of your Draught Dodgers for Awning Windows has been a straight forward one. Making that investment into a mitre saw really does make the process so much easier - go you!

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback, we really appreciate it!

Also, we would LOVE to see a photo of your completed install too. Please feel free to send them through to sales@ecomaster.com.au
Have a great day!

Works really well
Highly recommend

Hi Glen,

We look forward to serving you again soon!

Excellent door seal

Good quality and very clever design. I had my handyman help me to install it, and he said the video was easy to follow. The little piece of board that helps the installer measure the width of the rubber seal made all the difference, he said. Also, great service from Eco master when I rang with questions before I purchased

Hi Kate,

we sincerely thank you for your encouraging words and positive feedback. It is great to know that you and your handy man love our 'Draught Dodgers for Doors'.
The team here at ecoMaster put a lot of effort into the videos to help make the install process as simple as possible. We will definitely be sharing your feedback with them. Thanks again!

Easy to install

I installed 2 small and 1 large pelmet above 3 different windows. It was easy to do, although a join on the big one fell apart once, so make sure you stick it down really hard. They really are invisible which I like, as I find box pelmets too heavy.

We are quite thrilled that you like our 'Invisible Pelmets'! Good point about 'sticking down hard', it is the best way to active any adhesive tape.
We hope you visit again soon! Have a great day!

Goodbye Heating Vents

Cutting the boards to size was easy and installing the units was also straightforward.
The return unit was a bit fiddly due to it being a long oblong with an angled and uneven top but used the offcut board pieces to make a level surface and lots of filler.
Units are a bit pricey.

Hi Robin,

We take pride in the fact that you took your time to write to us. This helps us strive for the best experience for customers like yourself.
We are so pleased to hear that the installation process of our 'Goodbye Heating Vents' was a simple one.

With rising costs across the board, sourcing the components unfortunately isn't as cost effective as it use to be. Providing a convenient one stop kit to de-commission old heating vents and save money on energy bills, we hope is worth it. As a small family business that is committed to energy efficiency for Australian homes we do keep our margins very slim.

Thanks again for sharing. Have a fantastic day!
