Cast-iron credentials in challenging times
A member of the AGA family
Rayburn is in good company for sure. It shares a great deal with its sister brand, AGA, and many Rayburn purchasers recognise this straight away – the cast iron ovens cook fantastic food using radiant heat, British-made throughout, a choice of stunning coloured enamel finishes, cast-iron hotplates, and the warm glow of heat into the kitchen that can offset the need for radiators. For some, it is the on-off ‘AGA’ that’s ready to cook in around 25 minutes and is only on when you need it. For all Rayburn owners, it’s the heart of their home, and a focal point for the family in the most important room in the home.
Rayburn and the environment
Rayburn is an unsung environmental champion with a strong spread of green credentials:
• Recycled Materials
• Low carbon footprint from factory to your home
• Optimised for renewable fuels
• Efficient energy use
Rayburn running costs – the facts
There is a Rayburn that runs on almost every fuel, and one to suit most sizes of home. For Rayburn models that provide hot water or hot water and heating, you’ll need to consult a qualified heating engineer who can calculate running costs based on the size and type of home.
If you’re wondering how much it will cost to run a cooker-only Rayburn (Cooker or XT), there’s a handy table in the full Rayburnomics document (below) that shows the energy consumption and running costs based on energy prices as of February 2010. It costs surprisingly little to run a Rayburn, and these figures are based on running the Rayburn for five hours in the evening – providing all the cooking you need along with 5 hours of warmth into the kitchen.
