How we convert an Aga to electric
Come with us to convert this 2 Oven Oil Aga Cooker to our controllable "ElectricKit Advanced" System!
First, we start by dismantling the oil aga cooker. This involves removing the top plate, vacuuming out the loose-fill vermiculite, and removing the redundant cast iron parts.

The old oil system uses heavy cast iron barrels and conductions to move the heat around the cooker from the single heat source. Once the Aga Cooker has the ElectricKit Advanced Conversion inside, there are multiple elements to direct the heat where it needs to go - removing the need for those cast iron conductions.
Once dismantled, the Aga Cooker is built back up, with the ElectricKit Advanced Conversion elements placed under and above the ovens. This placement helps temperature regulation and vastly improves heat up times. Traditional oil models will reach temperature from cold in around 7 hours. Models with our ElectricKit Advanced Conversion heat up in around 50 minutes from cold.
The aga ovens are reseated and surrounded with furnace-grade insulation blankets to retain the heat and reduce your running costs.
The new ElectricKit Advanced hotplate units are installed, alongside a modern induction hob if applicable!
These conversion customers opted for an external screen upgrade, where individual oven and hotplate temperature adjustments, automatic on/off scheduling and timer settings can all be controlled by the small panel seated on the worktop next to the Aga Cooker.
