EXAMPLE AT A GLANCE
This fictional Albury, New South Wales hydronic radiator replacement example contains 7 itemised costs totalling A$3,348.00. Its app-exported PDF uses the exact metric quantities and AUD rates in the table, with scope assumptions and exclusions explained below.
Project scope: Two existing radiator positions
Replace two selected hydronic radiators at existing accessible positions, reconnecting suitable pipework and testing the system.
This original fictional example is set in Albury, New South Wales. Harbour & Gum Projects and Alex Morgan are made-up parties. The matching Australian guide explains which measurements, product decisions and site conditions turn this brief into a client-ready quote.

Itemised hydronic radiator replacement costs
These 7 AUD lines reproduce the native app export. Radiator allowance is measured as 2 each; Valve and fitting allowance uses 2 set. Some lines are measured work while others are a product or site-task allowance. Read the unit before reusing the structure for a different job.
| Work item | Quantity | Unit rate | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| System and position survey | 1 job | A$234.00 | A$234.00 |
| Drain-down and protection | 1 job | A$300.00 | A$300.00 |
| Radiator allowance | 2 each | A$504.00 | A$1,008.00 |
| Valve and fitting allowance | 2 set | A$198.00 | A$396.00 |
| Radiator fitting labour | 2 each | A$468.00 | A$936.00 |
| Refill and leak check | 1 job | A$294.00 | A$294.00 |
| Old unit disposal | 1 job | A$180.00 | A$180.00 |
| Illustrative total | A$3,348.00 | ||
Product selection and installation should be clear from the descriptions. Confirm delivery, fixings, preparation, waste and any specialist trade responsibility for the actual job rather than assuming each allowance covers them.
Check the arithmetic
Radiator allowance: 2 each × A$504.00 = A$1,008.00. Valve and fitting allowance: 2 set × A$198.00 = A$396.00. All other lines use the same quantity-by-rate calculation and sum to A$3,348.00. Every fixture line lands on an exact cent, so the native PDF subtotal equals the displayed table total.
Measurement to check: Measure radiator size, heat-output basis, bracket position and valve connection at each location. Selection to check: Keep radiator products, valves and connection fittings separate. The PDF uses a 0% tax input only to make its fictional arithmetic visible. Confirm the GST treatment that applies to the actual job and set your own markup before sharing a client quote.
Assumptions and exclusions
Confirm isolation, drain-down and refill plan before removing old units.
Outside this stated scope: No boiler replacement, new pipe routes or whole-system balancing.
Corroded nearby pipework or unsuitable output selection changes scope. A changed condition should lead to a newly measured quantity, revised allowance or separately agreed task. Keep the client informed of the changed figure before producing another PDF.
