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.
