Hi All
SWMBO has got her heart set on a gas double oven to replace our old
elctric
fan oven, we already have a gas hob so the gas supply is there already,
how
much trouble is it likely to be to fit? The last time I did any gas
fitting
was with 3" iron pipe in a boiler house (20 years ago). Are there likely
to
be fittings designed to supply both hob and oven easily available or is
it a
case of just finding a BSP tee and flexible connector. I guess I'm
asking
if this has been standardised - in our previous house I just fitted a
bayonet fitting.

Flexible hoses are for "mobile" or non fixed appliances. Fixed
appliances, eg oven units/hobs/gas fires/central heating boilers
should be fitted with rigid pipework.


Thats what I thought originally but the built under unit would have to be
'mobile' to slide it out just like a gas cooker, a gas cooker wouldn't be
any more mobile but these are often fitted with hoses.
