Ikea mentioned this to me.
Does someone know what the rules are /link to them?
They mentioned that a cooker must be 800mm away from a sink? Theres got to be a 20mm gap between cupboard and cooker (there aint for my current cooker).
And you can't have a cooker on the end (i.e. got to have another unit on the end).
Any ideas?
Given that they sell
Very Strange. Yep - kitchen consultant said there had to be 800mm of worktop between sink and cooker.
I expect this is just one of the their design guidelines...
The required gap to a cupboard (if any) will vary with the cooker. Some, like a slot it cooker, will require only a few mm.
There is some sense to that, but I am not aware of any hard requirement it be so.
I.e. no gap at all in practice
