Cheap Economy 7 Electricity from Scottish Power.

We regularly check fuel prices so we can help you keep an eye on the running costs of your AGA or Everhot and were very pleasantly surprised when we checked the current economy 7 tariff from Scottish Power. Found through www.uswitch.com, the tariff called 'Online Energy Reward' and has a day rate of 6.72p per KW/h and a night rate of 3.16p per KW/h (the first 900 day units per year are at 19.56p which equates to a standing charge of £115.56 but you get a rebate of £63.00 if you stay with them until the end of July 2011). This is by far the cheapest we've seen electricity for a long time and means a two oven Economy 7 Electric AGA would cost just £8.00 per week to run; we'd recommend you 'get switching' - we have!

Update to our Electric AGA Page and New Economy 7 FAQs Page

We've updated our Electric AGA page to include information on both the 13amp and Economy 7 models and details about AIMS.

There's also information on current running costs for all the models of electric AGA.

We've added a new page too - Economy 7 FAQ's. Hopefully answering your questions on the Economy 7 tariff (which due to being the cheapest AGA to run is surging in popularity).

AGA and Rayburn Price Increase

We've been informed that there will be a manufacturer's price increase taking effect after 12th April 2010 (it was previously going to be 29th March but this has now been revised).

Some appliances are going to stay the same price and others will be going up by 3-5%, you can avoid the increase if you order before this date.

If you're not quite ready for the cooker just yet but want to avoid paying the extra then we can store it for you until you are (appliances stored beyond the end of April would need to be paid for in full).

Gas and Electricity Prices Down!

We couldn't believe it but when we were updating our price list with the current running costs for AGAs - we've found some great deals on fuel:

Standard tariff electricity at 7.06p per KWh (from EDF Online S@ver Tariff);

Natural gas 2.78p per KWh (iSave Dual Fuel - electricity was 7.88p on this tariff);

Economy 7 at 9.53p daytime and only 3.73p night time (from British Gas Websaver '5').

All had a standing charge, but then the higher prices before also had one.

These were all found on www.uswitch.com by using our postcode as the reference point (on 25th January 2010). As the hook-line goes - get switching; if you check your bill you could be paying nearly double the standard tariff price for electricity!

Everhot 100i

Our new display cooker is in the showroom - resplendent in black and with the optional induction hob and lid the Everhot 100i is here!

Two indepedently controllable ovens, a warming oven, two cast iron hot plates (again with independent controls) and a separate super-fast induction hob make it a 'complete solution' to those who want to have range cooking as well as controllability. See the product page for more details.

Did you want a range style cooker to keep you warm in winter, cook in the traditional 'oven cooker' way but were worried that the kitchen may be a bit small, or might get too warm in summer?

Well, that's what Everhot have addressed with their cookers. Starting at 60cm wide (to fit in a standard cooker 'gap') and bigger models up to 150cm wide (including a 100cm wide model, which is the most popular of all) they all offer individual control over each oven and both hot plates, so if you're not using some or all of it you can turn it down or even off as you please. They even have a separate grill with its own control too.

The 60cm, 90cm and 100cm models only use about 100 units of electricty per week whilst still warming the kitchen (when left on for an average amount of time).

You can even save another 15% on the running costs by using the 'ECO' function that's built in to all the models. This lowers the temperature overnight when the cooker's not in use.

They don't even need a big cooker circuit - they all run from just a 13amp plug/socket outlet.

Our showroom display model is now here and working - feel free to come and have a look. (Click here for the Everhot section of our website.)

New Rayburn in the Showroom

Corgi and The Gas Safe Register

Did you know that Corgi no longer run the UK's gas safety registration scheme?

From 1st April 2009 the Health and Safety Executive have taken the scheme off Corgi and handed it to Capita, who now run it under the name "Gas Safe Register"; so from now on you have to be "Gas Safe Registered" rather than "Corgi Registered" to legally work on gas pipework and appliances.

Engineers' ID cards now have a different logo - please see graphic to the right, however the company (or individual) registration numbers have carried through.

In the transitional period you'll probably see a mix of the two logos on letterheads and vans (ID cards should be up to date) but the Gas Safe Register is the one to look out for.

Just to confuse things though.... Corgi is not disbanding; they are running a 'Competent Persons Scheme'. This means you'll still see members of Corgi, using the Corgi logo, however this doesn't necessarily mean they will be 'Gas Qualified', for this you need to be Gas Safe Registered.

AIMS Control for Gas AGAs

Can be ordered with new gas AGAs (and now available as a retrofit for most old / existing cookers) as an option. The system (similar to that for the 13amp electric models) is an optional extra (Retrofit kits do cost more - please see the other article or give us a call for more details).

Savings up to 20% on fuel consumption can be made with AIMS (we've found this can be as much as 29% with the 13amp electric models) and is handy if you want to turn the cooker down and reduce the warmth coming in to the kitchen. AIMS can also be used to switch the AGA off (or set it low) whilst you're away on holiday and then bring it back to life ready for when you get back.

AIMS is available for cooker-only conventional flue and power flue gas AGAs (not hot water or balanced flue models). Non-AIMS gas AGAs will continue to be available (click here if you'd like more information about fitting AIMS to an existing AGA).

Give us a call or click here if you'd like a more information or to arrange a home survey.

Economy 7 Electric - any colour you like but always green!

We all know that the electricity companies watch Coronation Street so they can power up when we all put the kettle on in the adverts, but did you know that when (most of us) go to bed and turn everything off for the night they can't just turn off the power station? It carries on running (at a lower level, but carries on none-the-less) making power that's not always used.

Due to the giant scale of things it just isn't possible or economic to switch a power station off. So to try to smooth out the load, the overnight power (that would otherwise be wasted) is cheaper, the idea being to encourage us to use it then, instead of (rather than aswell as) during the day. Trouble is, you can't easily store electricity so if you watch telly during the day, you use power during the day, and if you cook during the day, you use power during the day. Normally.

This is where the Economy 7 electric AGA's genius comes in - it's designed to charge with enough heat for a full day's cooking in the cheap rate overnight period. Then, during the day, you're using last night's electricity to cook with.

It's the cheapest way to run an AGA (roughly £12.50 a week at current prices, plus there's very little maintenance too) not bad when the AGA will do all your cooking; there's no need for a toaster; a kettle; a tumble dryer; the heating boiler will do less work and be cheaper to run; you'll be more gentle on the environment and to top it off if you get the four oven there's room for the cat and the dog in front of it!
