We will not charge you extra delivery costs for this. If you ask us to deliver the Order in instalments, we may charge you extra delivery costs. Each instalment shall constitute a separate contract. If we are late delivering an instalment or one instalment is faulty, that will not entitle you to cancel any other instalment.

11.8. Prior to the Company providing the Quotation pursuant to clause 11.1, we shall first require a Pre-Installation Questionnaire to be completed and any such Quotation later provided shall be conditional on the accuracy of the answers provided on the Pre-Installation Questionnaire.
11.9.
