INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION SECTION
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 cooker is floor-mounted and the space in which the appliance is to be fitted must have the following minimum
dimensions:-
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 which protrude beyond the front of the AGA, a 116mm clearance is required
at the RH side for oven doors access.
If the AGA is to be installed in a brick recess, then the minimum clearance 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.
NOTE: AGA COOKERS ARE DELIVERED EX-WORKS UNASSEMBLED. ASSEMBLY IS UNDERTAKEN BY THE
AUTHORISED AGA DISTRIBUTOR/SPECIALIST.
