Problem is it's very hot on the outside, as in too hot to touch for any length of time, including the knobs. So clearly not very efficient and potentially dangerous.

Question is, what is likely to be causing this? Bad design or something broken?]]> https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=205954#Comment_205954 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=205954#Comment_205954 Tue, 22 Jul 2014 22:19:48 +0100 snyggapa

Maybe best to find a 'that oven' forum and ask if it's normal.

We have a 'rangemaster' where the doors and glass get stupidly hot.]]> https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=205955#Comment_205955 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=205955#Comment_205955 Tue, 22 Jul 2014 22:47:17 +0100 Peter_in_Hungary https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=205961#Comment_205961 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=205961#Comment_205961 Wed, 23 Jul 2014 00:34:08 +0100 tony https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=205965#Comment_205965 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=205965#Comment_205965 Wed, 23 Jul 2014 09:25:45 +0100 Simon Still https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=205968#Comment_205968 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=205968#Comment_205968 Wed, 23 Jul 2014 11:50:52 +0100 Triassic
I had an American side by side fridge freezer and was that close to melting it down for scrap. The manufacturers were no help, all they wanted was to send out a technician (£100) plus parts. A forum search found a guy who helped identify the defective part and repaired it for £40.]]> https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=205977#Comment_205977 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=205977#Comment_205977 Wed, 23 Jul 2014 14:26:35 +0100 snyggapa https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=207282#Comment_207282 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=207282#Comment_207282 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 10:57:41 +0100 haplessDiyer https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=207287#Comment_207287 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=12366&Focus=207287#Comment_207287 Mon, 18 Aug 2014 15:15:01 +0100 davidfreeborough
One thing I've noticed is that the fan which circulates air between the outside of the oven & the underside of the hob comes on at strange times. When the oven is running & up to temperature there is an imperceptible air flow from the slots above the oven door (& presumably between the panes of glass in the over door). A few minutes after the oven has been switched off the fan suddenly turns on for 3-4 minutes pumping out huge quantities of hot air. If cooking something in the oven which generates lots of moisture then steam emits from the rear of the cooker where there is no real ventilation gap; again implying the fan which should move air from back to front isn't working when it should.
