We just bought a new home a few months ago and want to replace the small 24 inch gas oven to a 27 inch. We are having a tough time finding a suitable gas double oven. It seems like all we are finding are electic double ovens. Is it possible to convert a electic oven to a gas oven? Oh yea here's the best part we do not have a 220 connection. Do you have any suggestions that will not break the bank?
It is definately not possible to change a gas to an electric. There are very few options for double gas ovens as electric is far superior. IF you have to go with gas , check out the local Habitat for Humanity store. You should be able to buy a used gas oven. It probably won't have the self clean feature. You would be better off trying e bay or a local scratch and dent outlet for a nice electric convection oven. It will need a seperate 220 volt circuit probably 40 amps. This isn't as expensive as you would think. Use the installer from the dealer you purchase the oven from. They are usually a lot cheaper than a union electricial worker. The 4 sizes available for built in ovens are the old standard of 24" the newer standard of 27" and the most common and useful 30" This is the current standard but you will also still be able to get 27" There is also a custom standard of 36" which would be for the very high end lines. These are all width measurements. The height will vary with the model. Most cabinets are made to accept various heights by removing one or more drawers underneath.

We have an old Roper gas double oven, width is 24 inches and length is 50.5 inches. Inside width is 19 inches.The upper oven is broil and bake, while the bottom is bake only. Are there any gas double ovens that have bake capabilities in both the upper and lower cavities?
