Range Cooker Dilemma: Will it fit into the gap in the Chimney Breast ???
Flimber
Posts: 736 Forumite
Right, we have knocked out part of a chimney breast in the kitchen and the internal width we have is ~110cm. This is to take a nice oven.
Now then, I've only ever really considered 90cm ones, which would give ~10cm room either side (for pan handles and to not be cramped etc). But the question is this: could I get away with a 100cm Range-Style oven ? I can't find any guidelines for this sort of stuff and pics online and elsewhere are not helping. Am I even pushing it at thinking of a 90cm wide oven ?
Please help !!!
Cheers,
Mike.

Hi,
Ive just bought a 110cm range and on my instruction booklet it says to leave a gap of 130mmat the side to allow for oven door openingand at least 75mm to any other adjacent surface. Hope this might help0 -
Thanks for that. I'd love to find installation instructions for any range cooker online as that's bound to have proper guidlines on this sort of thing. Could someone on here help with that ? Or even scan one in for me ? Can't find the specific info I need online anywhere

Cheers,

I typed installation instructions+range cooker into google and it came up with these websites. Maybe one of them will have what you are looking for.

My range is from rangemaster and I emailed them the model number and asked for the instruction booklet and he sent it by email. Maybe you could email your makers?0
