Hobs / buying notes

Hobs: before you order

Keep the worktop cut-out and outer dimensions as separate measurements. Then check the supply and installation requirements.

Use the manufacturer’s installation drawing for the cut-out and clearances. A familiar width category does not establish whether a replacement will fit an existing opening.

Choose gas, induction or radiant electric before comparing zones and controls. Ask a suitably qualified installer about the actual supply and fitting requirements.
