Design Considerations
1.  Floor Strength: The AGA sits flat on the floor, 
spreading the weight over 10 square feet for the 4-oven 
model (1,290 lbs.) and 7 square feet for the 2-oven 
(900 lbs.) Review the Floor supports. (Ordinarily not a 
problem).
2.  Heat Loads: Most kitchen appliances radiate heat. i.e., 
commercial-style refrigerators (300-900 BTU/hr.) AGA 
Cooker (3,000 BTU/hr. or 3 tonnes), commercial-style 
cookstoves (12,000/burner - 40,000/oven BTU/hr. when 
operating), overhead light spots (12x100 watt bulb at 
approximately 300 BTU/hr.) Orientation, solar gain, and 
room dimensions should also be considered. 
3.  Air Conditioning/Ventilation: Cross ventilation 
should be considered in the kitchen design as well as any 
air conditioning. A certified heating and cooling engineer 
will be able to determine your needs.
4.  Work Space: It helps to have space on each side of 
the AGA on which to set hot pots. The left side of the 
4-oven may not require extra space because of the 
warming plate.
5.  Hood: No hood is required under the American or 
Canadian Gas Association Certifications. However, many 
owners will include one for looks or for extracting air 
for the occasional, brief cooking on top of the stove, or 
for low-volume room air ventilation.
6.  Cabinets Over the AGA: Flue pipe going through a 
cabinet must be Type B. Cabinets over the AGA must be 
30” above the cook top and may not project more than 
13” from the wall.
7.  Side Cabinets: Zero clearance on each side. Consider 
a narrow cabinet on the left to house the roasting pan, 
cookie sheet, or grill rack. If the gas lead is out of the left 
side, this gives a hidden work area routing the pipe or 
possible shut-off.
8.  Platform/Hearth: Face treatment should be planned 
into the final dimensions of the hearth: tile, brick, etc. 
Page 1 covers these details.
9.  Routing Vent Pipe: (Applies to Standard Vent and 
Power Vent only) Please don’t wait until the last minute 
to accommodate the vent pipe, because you can lose 
options. The Standard Vent unit must extend above the 
roof. Be sure to review any building code requirements 
before proceeding.
