Conversions continue...!

With the slight easing of lockdown measures, we are able to carry out Aga and Rayburn conversions again. There may be a slight delay in being able to get hold of kits from the manufacturers, but that is improving all the time. We have a full set of safe practices to maintain social distancing and anti coronavirus measures.

Here is the most recent one - an 18 year old Rayburn 480 AG, with a newly configured control panel. This conversion was carried out just over a week ago.

Coronavirus update

Well, the virus has pretty much stopped the carrying out Aga and Rayburn conversions in their tracks.

Government guidance on staying at home and reducing travel to mitigate the risk of passing on or receiving an infection means I think it unwise to carry out conversions at the moment. Other people potentially involved in the process, such as the suppliers of the conversion kits, electricians, plumbers and gas fitters will be similarly affected, and will be making their own judgements on whether they are still able to work.

So although I cannot actually carry out conversions currently, I am still very willing and able to discuss any potential conversion enquiries, or answer any questions you may have, so that we are ready to act when the future allows.

In the meantime, it is not all doom and gloom. In a moment of idleness, I rediscovered an enjoyment of baking bread - something I have not done for many years. Here is a picture of some I cooked recently in my electrickit converted aga to feast your eyes on.

They were delicious…!

Aga conversion - 1958 model

Just finished converting this beautiful all cream 4 oven aga, installed in 1958. It was put in as a solid fuel model originally, then converted to oil a few years later. It has not been running at all for about four years, but is now converted and alive again. Lovely to see ones like this, with the aga boiler unit next to it, not removed and scrapped - they are perfectly convertible
