Oil, Gas and Converted Aga Cookers Have Been Discontinued

For many years, oil-fired and gas-fired Aga cookers were a familiar sight in country kitchens across the UK, prized for their constant background warmth and traditional cast-iron cooking. However, AGA stopped manufacturing new oil and gas-fired cookers around a decade ago, shifting production entirely to genuine electric models. This now means no more costly flue installation, complex site preparation, or the need for a plinth. 

In more recent years, third-party companies have offered aftermarket conversion kits, such as ElectricKit and eControl, which take an older oil or gas Aga and retrofit it with electric components. While these conversions can look appealing on price, they are not manufactured or endorsed by AGA, are typically built on-site rather than delivered as a finished appliance, and rely on non-AGA parts and independent installers for ongoing servicing and support.

Combined with the rising and unpredictable cost of heating oil and gas, the twice-yearly servicing many of these older systems require, and the fact that spare parts for discontinued models are becoming harder to source, it’s easy to see why so many homeowners are now moving away from oil, gas and converted Aga cookers altogether.

As a result, Range Exchange no longer sources, reconditions or sells oil-fired, gas-fired, ElectricKit or eControl cookers, and instead specialises exclusively in genuine, factory-built electric Aga models, which offer lower and more predictable running costs, full programmable control, and the reliability of a cooker engineered by Aga for electric use from day one.
