Aga Ranges GEB - Manual

With specific exceptions, the installing of any type of Aga
Cooker is subject to the respective directions contained in
current issue of The Building Regulations. In addition,
Planning Permission may need to be obtained, which
should be applied for separately. The complete range of
Aga cookers are suitable for Natural or Propane gases
only and cannot be used on any other gas.
The complete cooker is floor-mounted and the space in
which the appliance is to be fitted must have the following
minimum dimensions:-
A minimum clearance of 60mm is required above the
raised insulating cover handle.
Side Clearances: A 3mm gap is required each side
between the cooker top plate and adjoining work surfaces
that maybe fitted, this is to allow for the safe removal of
the top plate should this be required at a later date.
Where cookers are fitted against side walls a 116mm
clearance is required at the right hand side for oven doors
access. (A further 116mm is necessary if a left hand side
gas connection is required.
If the Aga is to be installed in a brick recess, then the
minimum clearances should be increased by at least
10mm on either side, to allow for the walls not being
square and also for the natural dimensional variations
found in the castings.
In addition a minimum clearance of 1000mm must be
available at the front of the cooker to enable the cooker to
be serviced.
