Owner FAQs

Can I air my washing on my AGA heat-storage cooker?

Yes. The AGA heat-storage cooker radiates a gentle warmth that dries your clothes beautifully, reducing your reliance on a tumble dryer. To do this, use an airer or clothes horse - be careful never to drape clothes or sheets over the ventilation holes on the burner door.

Another job the AGA cooker makes light work of is ironing items such as folded pillow slips or t-shirts, simply place on the simmering plate cover over night to be 'AGA ironed'.

How environmentally friendly are AGA cookers?

Each AGA heat-storage cooker is made in Shropshire, England from 70% reclaimed iron, including old cast-iron cookers, drain covers, old machinery, door fittings etc and, in turn each old AGA is 90% recyclable, meaning you'll never find one on a landfill site.

We're also dedicated to developing more efficient energy sources.  This includes programs using micro-generated electricity such as wind, solar power and heat pumps. 

How quickly will the AGA cool down?

Due to the efficiency of the insulation you may not feel any perceptible change in the warmth being given off for several hours.
