oven

Posted last week. But no replies for install. Any help anyone?

I'm looking to install a built under electric double oven in place of a single model.

I'm looking to install a built under electric double oven in place of a single model. Proline brand 13 months old and knackered, hardly used and Comet would not entertain warranty!!! despite letters to their md/customer service etc

The current oven is 600 wide x 600 high. A shelf/cover plinth has been added to the bottom of the carcase to bring the depth of the unit from 700 to 600 to accommodate the current oven.

There is a no. of double electric ovens out in the market place. They all seem to be around 700 - 720mm deep. My question is will the oven still fit the existing space? I will obviously be removing the bottom shelf to gain back the 700mm. I'm worried that the oven may not fit, as the internal dimension on the carcase is 700mm, and there is an electric hob above which may interfere?

Thanks for any help in advance.

Most ovens are now designed to fit underneath the worktop in a oven housing, the housing has been adapted so your current oven will fit.
I can't see why your new one will not fit once you have removed the shelf below.
If you ask the sales people if the oven will fit under the worktop the will tell you.
The hob above normally was no effect on the oven below as usually theres is a bit of tolerance.

Many thanks for that. Cheers.

If it's a built under double, as opposed to a built in double I can't see there being a problem.

This hasnt been publicised very well, but nevertheless exists.

The above is a PDF.

quote form directive
"Article 5

Time limits

1. The seller shall be held liable under Article 3 where the lack of conformity becomes apparent within two years as from delivery of the goods. If, under national legislation, the rights laid down in Article 3(2) are subject to a limitation period, that period shall not expire within a period of two years from the time of delivery."

Cant find the full document at the minute as the link I had no longer exists, it is on the EU website somwhere though if you fance a boring read.
