Installing a gas cooktop is usually more expensive than electric. This extra cost is partly due to the fact that a new gas line may need to be installed, and the initial cost of the cooker is higher, on average. After you have taken into account the costs from the calculator, a couple of other factors may come in to play.

Other Possible Costs

  • Retrofitting: If you are installing the cooktop in a new location – not replacing an existing one – or if the new cooktop is vastly different in size, you will be charged for the extra time needed to install it.

  • Ventilation: Although not part of the cooktop itself, you may wish to install some kind of ventilation such as a range hood. A cheaper alternative would be a small wall-mounted extraction fan.

Opt for Professional Installation

You can install a gas cooktop yourself, but it isn't recommended and may be illegal in your area. This generally isn't one of the areas where homeowners should consider the DIY route. There are many reasons for this, but the main concern is the gas line.

For new installations, a professional ensures that a gas line and shutoff valve are installed correctly and runs an electrical circuit to the cabinet space beneath the cooktop to power the spark igniters. The installer cuts an opening into the countertop that conforms to the manufacturer's recommended clearance on all sides as well as above the unit so that a vent can be installed. In areas where natural gas is not available, a professional can also install a gas-to-propane conversion kit.
