Gas cooker safety distances
Posted: Thu Nov 11, 2010 11:56 am
Does anyone know the legal distance that a gas cooker has to be from a side wall? In this case I am hoping to install a free standing gas cooker into what was an old stone fire place with stone sides up to a height of 760cm above the cooker hob, where there is a stone lintle. Is there a regulatory distance that the gas hob itself has to be from the side wall. This wall extends out from the back wall by about 45 cm and is about 2/3 of the depth of the cooker? Your help would be appreciated ....
