Fixed v Flexible Gas Connections

Another Dave · 2004-10-14T08:38:54+00:00

For 30 years I've used free-standing gas cookers connected via a flexible pipe which enables them to be pulled away from the wall for cleaning.I've just bought a modern kitchen with an electric under-oven and a gas hob. The instructions for the hob specify a "fixed" gas pipe though they don't specifically exclude flexible connections. A fixed connection means an expensive Corgi job. Is it possible to continue using the existing flexible pipe?TIAAnother Dave

I thought that you might say that!

I have made provision in the design for the drawers imediately below the hob to become redundant if the need arises. So, in theory the interfering part of the drawer back can be removed.

its not just after that date he cannot do it anyway if it says so in the instructions or if it is above a oven and most other circumstances.
