Hi all

Approx 2 years ago we requested our housing association to move us out of our large family home into a small bungalow as we need level accommodation due to disability.
Suddenly in the past 2 weeks one has come up which we have been offered.
Our problem is this several months ago we purchased a new and quite expensive multi fuel cooker, but the bungalow is all electric.
The cooker came with a set of lpg gas jets, and what I need to find out will it be cheaper to purchase a new electric cooker or have an lpg installation to run the cooker hob.
The cooker position is approx 1 meter from the outside wall to a large back garden.
I really have not a clue and any advice would be appreciated.
Also does anyone know of a gas safe engineer in the Maldon Essex area who could do this job.

Thanks in advance for any help.
 
I'm with Chris, You would also need to get permission off the housing association for this work to be carried out. You may need to get the appliance serviced yearly as part of the agreement which is an on going cost and it would be your cost as the cooker is your property.
Remember too that you will more than likely have to also pay for the removal of the LPG piping etc for the cooker if you move out of the property!
The easiest and cheapest option is to sell it, but only if it has its full install/service instructions!

Hi, We're changing our old electric range cooker for (hopefully) a dual fuel (electric oven/gas hob) range cooker. We have a pantry room directly behind the cooker - just wondering if there's any point in us exploring the possibility of installing gas bottles in the pantry for the hob, or if...
