Common questions
What is the difference between fixed-hinge and sliding-hinge integrated fridges?
On a fixed-hinge, or door-on-door, fridge the kitchen door is fixed straight onto the appliance door, so both swing together on the fridge's own hinges. On a sliding-hinge fridge the kitchen door hangs on cabinet hinges, and the appliance door is linked to it by runners that slide as it opens. Fixed-hinge models generally carry heavier doors more securely; sliding-hinge ones need the right housing and hinges.
Does an induction hob need a new circuit?
Often, yes. Many induction hobs draw more current than an ordinary socket circuit can supply, so they are wired to a dedicated cooker circuit from the consumer unit. If you already have a cooker circuit of the right rating, the hob can usually connect to it. A new circuit is notifiable in England and Wales, and everywhere it must be tested and certified to BS 7671.
Should I choose a ducted or a recirculating cooker hood?
A ducted hood is usually more effective, because it takes steam, smoke and smells outside. A recirculating hood passes air through grease and carbon filters and returns it to the room, so it deals with grease and smells but not moisture, and another means of extract is usually needed. Recirculating suits kitchens with no practical duct route, and its carbon filters need replacing.
What do I need for a boiling water tap?
A boiling water tap needs a tank in the cupboard under the sink, usually a socket or fused spur to power it, and often a filter, particularly where the water is hard. Some models have a minimum water pressure, so check yours before buying. The tap also needs a correctly sized hole in the sink or worktop and enough clear cupboard space for the tank and pipework.
