Gas Hob / buying notes
Gas Hob: before you order
Look at burner positions as well as burner count. The layout matters when two wide pans need to sit alongside each other.
Put the dimensions of the pans you use together beside the hob drawing. Check the worktop cut-out and the clearances given for the exact model.
Confirm the gas type and any conversion requirements in the manufacturer’s documents. Ask a suitably qualified Gas Safe registered engineer about installation and safety.
Keep these details together
- Gas type
- Burner positions
- Cut-out and clearance
