Gas Aga - To sell or not to sell?

kari59 · 2007-09-11 09:08:46

I inherited a two oven natural gas Aga when I moved into my house in December. I think its ugly but also very expensive to run and maybe bad from a carbon footprint point of view. All it does is cook, no hot water or heating from it (apart from warming the kitchen and part of the garage wall). I am thinking of replacing it…

I did use the Aga for 6 months before turning it off when the (summer) arrived, so I understand how to use it pretty much, and I know its great for roasts and breakfasts and airing your washing etc., but I wonder if I use it enough to warrant the expense. The previous house owners left basic electric oven which I have used since, but its in the utility room which is a pain.

So is your Aga run on gas? If so could you estimate a weekly running cost?

and cats.
