Whether you want a perfectly cooked Sunday roast or a stove that can handle all the pots it takes to make Nonna’s red sauce, a properly installed oven is what makes it possible. 

When you’re installing an oven, whether it’s electric or gas, you’ll need a certified electrician to help with the job. Most modern ovens have some kind of electrical component that will need a dedicated circuit.

  • Built-in ovens 
  • Wall-mounted ovens

  • Ceramic cooktops
  • Induction cooktops
  • Electric hotplates 

From renovations and replacements to new installations, ESBA electricians are fully licensed and insured to assess your switchboard’s capacity for a new appliance, install dedicated circuits, and wire your system. We can also look after your rangehood installation as well.     

ESBA operates Sydney-wide and offers a lifetime workmanship warranty and 100% service satisfaction guarantee, so by the end of the installation, you’ll be satisfied!

Electric vs. Gas: How They Work & Which to Choose

Deciding between an electric and a gas oven depends on your cooking habits, your existing utility system, and your budget.

 Electric Ovens Gas Ovens 
Operation 

Heated by heavy-duty metal resistance coils at the top and bottom of the unit cavity, radiating heat all around.

Dry air is circulated via fan-forced or convection operations. 

Heated via an igniter, electronic spark, or glow bar that lights the gas burner/pilot light. This circulates hot, humid air around the cavity, allowing you to cook. 

Excess heat and combustion gases are continuously vented as necessary.  

Internal Temperature Control Temperature regulation via thermostat monitoring, pulsing power to elements that keep the temperature even and consistent. Temperature regulation through cycling the burner on and off via a thermostat or sensor. 
Key Features 
  • Even, consistent heat distribution 
  • Easier to clean 
  • Simpler and cheaper to install 
  • Quick preheating 
  • Responsive temperature adjustment 
  • Will continue to operate during power outages 
Considerations 
  • Longer preheat times 
  • May increase your home’s electricity expenditure
  • Unusable during a power outage 
  • Occasionally, uneven heating patterns 
  • Can introduce combustion gases and moisture into the air 
  • Can be expensive if you don’t have an existing gas line and need one installed 
Best For Delicate baking and multi-rack cooking Roast dinner and dense breads 
Installations Requires either a standard power point or a dedicated electrical circuit Requires both a gas line and an electrical connection

When you’ve decided which oven you would like for your kitchen, call ESBA for the installation. We provide fully licensed electricians, experienced in handling new appliance installations, safe disconnection for replacements, and electrical upgrades to existing power supply systems. 

No matter how complex installations are, ESBA has you covered. Call us at (02) 8331 6785 or book an appointment online.

Our Oven Installation Services

An oven installation isn’t a DIY job and requires a licensed electrician regardless of the type of oven you’re looking to get. Luckily, at ESBA, we offer full installation services. Whether it’s electric or gas, we’re prepared to sort out the entire installation process with our expert licensed electricians.

Electric Oven Installation

An electric oven is a high-draw appliance that requires a dedicated circuit so as not to strain the rest of your system. 

For an electric oven installation, we’ll assess how your existing electrical system can accommodate your new appliance. This will involve: 

  • A site inspection  
  • Removal and disposal of your old oven
  • Wiring and circuit assessments 
  • Electrical load assessments 
  • Switchboard inspections 

If your system can handle the load and has a dedicated circuit, we can get straight into installing your new unit. 

If there isn’t a dedicated circuit or adequate power supply, we’ll install all the necessary additions and upgrades to your electrical system. Then we’ll connect your oven to the correct wires and connections.

Gas Oven Installation

A gas oven installation requires both an electrician and a licensed gas fitter. While ESBA doesn’t offer gas line outfits, we are more than able to handle the electrical components of a gas oven installation. 

During a gas oven installation, the gas fitter will handle: 

  • Connection to the gas line 
  • Installing isolation valves 
  • Pressure testing 
  • Ensure ventilation compliance 

As the electricians, ESBA will handle: 

  • Hardwiring the unit to the mains or installing a dedicated power point or circuit
  • Test the circuits 
  • Issue Electrical Safety Certificate 

No matter what kind of oven you’re looking to get installed, ESBA is here to cover any electrical work that needs to be done. 

We can do anything from full electric oven fit-outs to supporting the gas line fitter with the electrical components of a gas oven installation. 

With a lifetime workmanship warranty and 100% service satisfaction guaranteed, ESBA won’t rest until you’re happy with the heart of your kitchen! 

To outfit your kitchen, call ESBA on (02) 8331 6785 or book an appointment today.

Electric Cooktop Installation

Depending on your kitchen’s layout, you might want a dedicated electric cooktop that’s separate from your oven unit. This can help save space, allow you to mix appliances and brands, and more easily maintain your appliances. 

Additionally, induction electric cooktops are faster, safer and more energy-efficient than traditional gas cooktops. 

Like electric ovens, electric cooktops require a dedicated circuit and occasionally a switchboard upgrade. ESBA’s ASP Level 2 electricians are ready to take on the job.

Similar to an oven installation, ESBA has a straightforward process to follow: 

  1. Site inspection, safety check, and written quote  
  2. Electrical upgrades and running new dedicated circuits to your cooktop
  3. Decommissioning of the previous installation  
  4. Hardwiring and connection 
  5. Testing 

It’s that simple when you rely on experienced, qualified electricians like the ones at ESBA. All of our pricing is transparent, so you won’t be surprised by hidden fees or work you weren’t expecting to pay for.

Surge Protection

Rangehood Installation

If the oven and stovetop are the heart of the kitchen, rangehoods are the lungs. They help maintain healthy indoor air quality by ventilating cooking fumes from the area. This helps prevent grease build-up and reduces humidity that can lead to mould growth.  

There are two main types of rangehood builds you can utilise in your kitchen: ducted and recirculating rangehoods. 

Ducted Rangehoods

Ducted rangehoods vent heat, moisture and cooking fumes through ducting in a wall or roof. These types of rangehoods are more effective at ventilation but can be complicated to install if ducting is not already installed in your kitchen. 

Recirculating Rangehoods

Recirculating rangehoods contain charcoal filters that catch contaminants and recirculate clean air into the kitchen. You don’t need ducting for recirculating rangehoods, just the electrical connection and mounting. This makes them easier to install and more practical for spaces where external venting can’t be utilised. 

To make sure you’re not choking on smoke when you burn the bacon at breakfast, call ESBA to help with your rangehood installation. 

ESBA has 15 years of experience as part of the Alliance Climate Control family, who specialise in ductwork repair, installation, cleaning and redesign. 

When you want a rangehood installed, Alliance Climate Control can handle the ventilation, and we can handle the electrical work.

How to Prepare for an Oven Installation

To make sure your kitchen is ready for your new appliance, there are a few ways to prepare for it:

Measure
Dimensions

Measure the width, height and depth of the space you would like your oven installed. Consider the: 
· Cutout size  
· Cabinet clearance  
· Airflow  
· Pathways 

Choose Your Make & Model

Find an oven that will suit your lifestyle. Do you want gas or electric? A separate cooktop or combined unit? The world is your oyster!  Popular brands like Bosch, Westinghouse, Smeg, Miele, and Fisher & Paykel all have a variety of products that you can choose from. 

Check Your Power Sources

For electric ovens, see if the space you’ve picked out has an existing hardwire connection or a dedicated circuit. If not, call ESBA to have a new power point installed or for a circuit installation.    For a gas oven, have a certified gas fitter take a look at your property to see what existing lines are available or whether a new line should be installed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, built-in ovens require a dedicated circuit to operate safely and efficiently. Ovens are high-draw appliances and can’t share a circuit with other high-draw kitchen appliances or use a standard outlet. If you don’t have a dedicated circuit, your system can overload and cause breakers to trip or pose serious fire hazards.

How long it will take to install an oven will depend on a variety of factors: 

  • Replacing an existing unit or installing a new one
  • What gas and electricity connections are available and required 
  • Whether modifications to cabinetry are needed 
  • Whether new electrical circuits or gas lines are needed  

For a straightforward swap, 1-2 hours is the approximate time it takes to install an oven. For more complex jobs, 2-4 hours is the average. 

Yes, you will need a licensed electrician to install an electric stove. Ovens and stovetops are high-draw appliances and require a dedicated circuit to run properly. 

Any electrical work in NSW needs to be conducted by a licensed electrician; it’s illegal to DIY an electrical project and poses serious safety risks to yourself and your household.     

The cost to install an oven will depend on whether it is a like-for-like replacement or a new oven. Cost will also depend on whether electrical upgrades, gas line installations, or kitchen renovations are necessary. 

On average, the cost range for an oven installation is between $150 and $600, not including cabinetry alterations or electrical upgrades.    

With Electricians Sydney by Alliance, you’ll receive a written quote on any work that needs to be done, so there are no surprise fees.  

For professional oven installations, call (02) 8331 6785 or book an appointment.

The cost to install an induction cooktop depends on your kitchen’s electrical needs. For a pre-existing replacement, the average cost is $250-$600, but for a new installation that requires a dedicated circuit, prices can range from $1,200 to over $2,000

If there are major renovations that need to be done, such as gas decommissioning, benchtop modifications, and additional electrical work, this will impact the price of the project. 

Luckily, when you work with Electricians Sydney by Alliance, we offer you transparent pricing and won’t start work until you have signed off on our written quote.
