    The gas oven is lighting but the flame insnt increasing when the diall is turned up. is it easy to tell if this is fixable? gas regulartor blocked? Am wary of poking around too much with gas...
    How much would it be to get someone out to have a look and fix if necessary (ball parK)?

    Sounds like thermostat has gone, depends on make, not cheap! maybe 150/200

    its an old cooker so not worth repairing at that price seeing as new ones are €230-300 even in places like currys.
    Do they also install them for ye and take away the old one or any know any place that does?

    Curry's will recomend an RGI to do the install, but beware Curry cookers, most i have installed have been a bitch to convert to LPG and incure extra costs, they normally charge to remove old cooker.

    There is no recycling fund included in the cost like tvs etc?
    So i'd have to get it deilvered then get someone out to hook it up and then get them to come back and collect the old one after?
    i guess i could stick it in the shed if needs be....

    dont need to convert it to LPG as gas is piped into the house.
