Weights
The weights quoted below are approximate and spread across the full area of the cooker’s solid base-plate, as shown.
Note the exception with the electric models, which have their heat store resting separately on the hearth.
The hearth or floor below the Aga must be strong enough to carry these weights as well as the extra weight of any plinth or slab used.
If the kitchen floor is suspended, it may require additional support underneath. Please check with your builder or a structural engineer.
The hearth must be also be non-combustible for a minimum thickness, dependent on the fuel type. See also the individual site requirements pages.
Any plinth or hearth must be absolutely level in all directions.
