What is the 13amp Aga Cooker?

AGA Rangemaster introduced the 13amp electric model back in 2004. It was revolutionary, with its flue-less design and ability to be placed anywhere in the kitchen.

When we refurbish our 13amp models, we completely overhaul the system. This means simple controls, reliable systems and upgraded insulation, so more heat stays where you need it - in the ovens.


Benefits of a Refurbished Aga Cooker with the 13amp system include:


  • Always on and ready to use.
  • Lots of ambient heat into the room.
  • No fossil fuels - electric only.
  • Room vented as standard, with no flue requirements.
  • No combustion smells or flames.
  • Traditional AGA cooking style - works in the same way as oil and gas models.
  • Not affected by outside weather conditions (vs gas and oil models).
  • No annual servicing required.
  • Runs from 1 single household switch.
  • Low maintenance 13amp system - no costly control board repairs!


All of our Refurbished Aga Cookers are restored by hand, per order and completely to your specification.

Low Maintenance System

The 13amp system we use is the low-maintenance version - basically a thermostat and electric element.


In our experience, the AIMS systems (computerised and controllable 13amp system) can be unreliable in the long term, with the constant heat affecting the control boards. These boards can be expensive to replace and have a limited 12 month warranty from the manufacturers.


The 13amp aga cooker is a traditional 'set and forget' model. Once you have found your optimum operating temperature, you can close the control door and forget about adjusting to cook. It's designed to be always on and up to temperature!


That being said, if you do want to turn it off, it's a simple on/off switch and you will have no issues relighting, unlike the gas and oil models which can be very temperamental if turned off.



No Annual Servicing Required!

The traditional oil and gas models require annual servicing (or every 6 months for oil). At a rough cost of £180 per service, this can add up in the long term life of the cooker.


The 13amp system uses the same technology as a conventional oven (thermostats and elements), so servicing is a thing of the past.


AGA recommend a simpler 'safety check' every 3-5 years which checks the safe operation of the cooker.


One benefits of the 13amp aga cooker, is that in the rare occurrence that something goes wrong with the electric system, the fix should be fairly straightforward due to the simplified design inside.

Traditional Ambient Heat

The 13amp aga cooker is the PERFECT choice for those who are looking for the traditional experience of Oil and Gas models, but without the fossil fuels, servicing and combustion issues.


The system is designed to be on 24/7, constantly radiating warmth into the room. This is particularly helpful in older properties prone to damp or those who are looking to emulate the traditional experience of an Aga Cooker.


When running at optimum temperature, you'll have one boiling hotplate and one simmering hotplate - both made of solid cast iron.


The top right hand oven is always your Roasting Oven, and depending on the model, your bottom oven will be a Simmering or Baking oven.
