Top tips
Hiring a kitchen installer, without the regret.
Four moves that separate a smooth job from a nightmare.
Incorrect Cable Size
Using standard 2.5mm cable for a high-power oven can cause the cable to overheat inside the walls.
Inadequate Airflow
Failing to leave the manufacturer-specified "ventilation gap" at the rear can cause the oven to overheat and cut out.
The "Stick Out" Issue
If the electrical back-box is installed directly behind the oven, the appliance may not sit flush with the kitchen units.
Circuit Overload
Connecting a powerful double oven to a circuit that also powers a hob or dishwasher, leading to frequent tripped breakers.
Costs & timeline
Know what it costs. Know when it ends.
