You will need to apply for a building consent if you are installing insulation in:
You do not need a building or resource consent for any other insulation projects.
If you need help to determine if an internal wall is a fire separation wall, contact us.
You may need a building consent if you want to inject wet insulation or water repellent dry fibre insulation into internal or external walls.
Examples of this product include foam, mineral fibre and other such products.
This will not include the use of non-repellent organic fibres, such as wool and paper.
We recommend that the insulation installer completes and submits the application on your behalf.
You will need to supply a letter authorising the installer to act on your behalf with the application.
After the insulation has been completed, your installer will also need to provide a completed Producer statement construction (PS3) Injected Wall Insulation.
The installer should be listed on our producer statement authors register.
Once work is completed you will need to apply for a Code Compliance Certificate (CCC). All CCC applications, including fixed fee consents, will be subject to additional charges for processing (excludes subsidised applications).
