Hi
Currently in the planning process for some building works, and also the early stages of a kitchen design. We have been intending to reuse our existing 5 burner gas hob on a long kitchen island but I wanted to find out if there are any Gas Safe/Building regulations if there are any restrictions for positioning of the gas hob? i.e. I am aware that an electrical socket needs to be 300mm away from a gas hob so is there any regulation for the distance from the hob to the back or side edge of the worktop given that it will probably be open. Essentially I am trying to find out the minimum depth of the worktop for the island.
Thanks in advance
