💡 Thinking about upgrading to gas?

Installing a gas stove in South Africa is not only easier but also quicker than you might think! 🎉 Each installation is as unique as your cooking style.

What Affects Gas Stove Installation Costs? 🤔

- 🛠️ **Complexity of installation:** Are you considering running gas lines through numerous walls or cupboard partitions? Perhaps you need to route them through the ceiling or embed the lines in the foundation, maybe trenching the line? Keep in mind that these options may significantly increase installation costs.

- 📍 **Location, location, location:** A tricky-to-reach spot for your stove might mean extra labor and materials.

- 📦 **Extra materials:** Anything above our standard installation kit will add to the final total.

Basic Pricing Breakdown: - Pricing typically starts at R2000 for a basic cupboard installation if an external route isn't possible. - For the preferred external gas line installation, you might be looking at around R2950. This price includes all the necessary gas installation equipment within **5 meters** and **2 elbows**—everything you need to get cooking! 🔧

Stove or Oven? 🤔 Choosing a gas stove opens up options. Whether you're eyeing a fully gas-powered oven or prefer a gas stove with an electric oven, here are a few things to consider: - **Appliance brand:** Are you going for a high-end brand or something more budget-friendly? Brand can impact the final cost. - **Oven type:** Gas or electric oven? ⚡ Electric ovens often feature a built-in fan for consistent heat and even cooking—something most gas ovens may not offer! - **Extra Features:** Fan-assisted ovens, convection, or standard? These can make a difference in your cooking experience.
