 Welcome to AGA Engineers, we specialise in repair servicing and maintaining all models of AGA ovens


Servicing an AGA oven

It is recommended that Gas & solid fuel Aga's are serviced at least every 12 months. Oil Aga's are recommended to be serviced at least every 6 months.Our engineers are trained Aga specialists & carry a large stock of cooker spares on their vans.The areas we cover for servicing are usually within an hours travel from Newark. These mainly include Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and Leicestershire.Once we have been out and carried the service, if you wish, we can add you to our contact list to inform you when your next service is due.When arranging a service maintenance visit, your engineer will require the Aga to be cool, therefore could you please ensure that the Aga is turned off the night prior to the visit. An Aga which is too hot, can not be serviced safely.

Engineers carrying out your service will hold the relevant Corgi or Oftec qualifications required and can provide proof upon request.

What does an AGA service usually consist of?

During a service some of the following actions will be carried out, dependent on model and fuel type.

  • Check operation of all functional controls and components.
  • Test safety devices.
  • Confirm correct fuel rates (oil) and gas pressures.
  • Clean burners and internal flue-ways.
  • Inspect/Replace rope seals and gaskets.
  • Adjust operation of insulating lids and doors.
  • Verify level and if necessary top up insulation.
  • Visual safety check of oil line and storage tank.
  • Check for gas soundness.
  • Ensure flue system and ventilation is correct.

  1. Insulated Covers: Those twin insulated covers are the great Aga hallmark. When closed, they`re just gently warm to the touch. Open them and both hot plates are instantly ready to cook.
  2. Boiling Plate: A high heat that can boil water faster than most electric kettles. It`s large enough to hold three average sized saucepans at once.
  3. Heat Source: Once an Aga is up to operating temperature just a trickle of energy is all that`s needed to keep it there. You can choose from natural gas, propane gas, electricity or oil.
  4. Simmering Plate: Again holds three average sized saucepans. It also doubles as a griddle.
  5. Roasting Oven: This oven can take anything up to a 13kg/28lb bird. It is also used for grilling and doubles for baking.
  6. Baking Oven: Featured in every 3 or 4 oven Aga. Like all Aga ovens the cast iron interior holds in its heat tenaciously, so don`t be afraid to open the door and take a peek at progress.
  7. Simmering Oven: Using this versatile oven in conjunction with the hotter oven and hotplates is the key to Aga cooking simplicity - and its wonderful flavours.
  8. Warming Oven: Featured onevery 4 oven Aga. Keeps cooked food warm without drying it out, ideal for entertaining.
  9. Warming Plate: A valuable general purpose surface standard on every 4 oven Aga.
