Oven Venting.
The main ovens on an electric Aga cooker are vented to outside atmosphere, so as to remove natural cooking smells and steam. This is achieved by means of a small, 28mm diameter copper pipe, linking the Aga to outside atmosphere, terminating with a compact electric fan.
This requires the Aga to be situated close to, or against an outside wall, within the limits given below, or sometimes it is possible to discharge into an unused, existing chimney.
The route and maximum length of vent pipe (up to 6 metres) is governed by the following simple calculation, ensuring that the maximum total value of V does not exceed 20
