Electric Ovens Built In
Cookers & Ovens Fitting Guide
You may need to replace a cooking appliance or maybe you are planning a kitchen layout. Either way, the kitchen is the heart of a home and having the right appliance is essential to a fully functioning kitchen.
When you are choosing a cooking appliance, it is important to establish the fuel supply and the style and space. The type of fuel the appliance will use could be determined on the power supply already installed. You will be able to choose from gas, electric, or dual fuel (gas hob and electric oven).
The style and space of a cooking appliance can determine the type you choose. There are slide in freestanding cookers available, as well as range cookers, built-in, hob and single or double oven and built-in microwave options. The space you have to accommodate a kitchen appliance is very important to consider. The average single oven is typically H60x W60 x D60cm with double oven being 30cm taller. Manufacturers recommend that you leave a 5cm space around a freestanding cooker to ensure there is no heat damaged caused to the surrounding units.
The different types of ovens available are: electric ovens, fan ovens, multifunction ovens, gas ovens and double ovens. A fan oven is typically the most energy efficient as the heat is even throughout the oven due to the fan pushing the air around. A multifunction oven is also very energy efficient as you can choose to use the fan in this model.
Cooking appliances are labelled with an energy efficiency rating. The gradings start from A to G with A being the most energy efficient. This rating will determine how much energy is used and you can compare products by this rating.
Gas appliances must be installed by a Gas Safe Register engineer. You must also be aware that it is now law that gas engineers will refuse to install any appliance that does not have a flame failure device when being fitted into flats or multi-occupancy accommodation. You should check for this prior to purchase.
There are many different features available with all types of ovens. These features can make cooking much easier and more efficient for you. An example of features available are, Self Cleaning, Timers, Electric Controls, Grills and much more.
Depending on your budget, you can choose from a slot-in cooker or a range cooker. A slot-in cooker is the least expensive and more flexible option as it does not need to be built-in to Your Kitchen units. They also have height adjustable feet to enable you to fit the cooker to correct height of your surrounding units. A range cooker is also a freestanding cooker, but can also be built-in to your kitchen. A range cooker has twin ovens side by side and the hob has both gas and electric burners on most models. A range cooker with a fan oven along with a conventional oven is a good choice to gain maximum control and cooking flexibility.
