Aga oil consumption

[KennyO]

Does anyone know how much oil a 2 oven aga should use if it on 365 days a year ?

We have a Redfyre poormans aga copy and it has averaged 3700 litres of kero per year for last 3 years.

rather depends on how long/much you use it surely ...is it central heating as well?

Sellers viewpoint below, how accurate is anyones guess.

Aga range cooker oil consumption running costs

UPDATE: Figures and data collated June 2017, our HUGE customer survey from March 2019 has some further data that might interest you - you can find that here. I recently added lots of information on our electric Aga range cooker conversions and realised that I have made a lot of assumptions over...

I think it depends on age too. The older ones have much less insulation especially in the doors.
Ours is 1976 four oven and drinks like a fish.
But we like it so pay up and look happy especially in May when we turn it off!

4 Door Aga is just under 2000l a year here, it's a refurb fitted around 1995.

Ours is gas, just had a top up of insulation and a blanket thing fitted under the lid.

It was new in 2009.

Its a pot burner. Only heats itself and the kitchen. No hot water or heating.

My mate recons his aga doing similar only uses 2000litres hence asking the question.

Gallon a day .

Looks like ours has a drink problem. As mentioned it is not a real Aga.

 

[Nukemall]

We have our two oven on for about 6 months of the year. Use a total of 2500l per year for the aga and oil boiler for central heating and hot water combined. Do have a wood burner as well.

Two oven aga with electric float control and on all year uses about 600 gallons a year, but does heat a hot water cylinder too.

We’ve got an esse doing cooking, water and heating, it’s over 4000l/yr and does none of the above tasks very well………And we turn it off in summer. .

sounds like yours is using a similar amount of fuel.

Ours is getting the heave once we can find a plumber that’s able to do 2 things: 1- turn up, and 2 - actually commit to doing a job. .

Am gonna get shot down but best thing with them oil cookers is the scrap man.
No Regrets here getting rid of ours about 5year ago
Hotwater/Heating Modern boiler uses about half the annual amount of Oil that was already in place before i ripped the gas guzzler out

If you have any luck with the plumber let me know. Still got rads to get fitted in our bathroom that we started last April.

One of best things we did was chuck ours out. Just a money pit.

If I want similar heat to my aga I will turn all the rings on, on my cooker and turn oven on and leave door open

Now i could poss do the same but a rangemaster electric cooker is in the hole where the oil guzzler once sat
couple of Rads on opposite wall off the boiler by heck they can get warm if needed

That's what we replaced ours with.

There not cheap either. But only cost of a couple of tanks of fuel that the aga guzzled
