"AGA cookers are the heart of the home"
In the heart of beautiful North Vancouver stands an Aga cooker, a deep blue beauty that has been the centrepiece of our kitchen for two generations. The Aga isn’t just an appliance; it is the soul of our home. Our cast-iron masterpiece hums with life each morning, radiating a comforting warmth that welcomes our family as they gather for breakfast.
For the Johnstone family, the Aga cooker is more than just a source of heat. It is where sourdough loaves rise to perfection, stews simmer gently for hours, and cups of tea/coffee are always kept piping hot on the warming plate. Its steady, radiant heat fills our kitchen, making it the coziest room in the house during chilly winter months.
Before we ever renovated our home, we knew the Aga cooker was the range for us. We quickly learned the delicate art of cooking with it. From slow-roasted lamb shanks to fluffy Victoria sponge cakes, the Aga’s consistent warmth has provided perfect results every time. With its multiple ovens and spacious hotplates, it allowed myself, my wife and our family to cook multiple dishes effortlessly.
Our Dogs love the AGA, too.
The Aga cooker also transforms family gatherings. We are the go-to home for all family parties and gatherings. On Christmas morning, the scent of roasting turkey fills the air while mulled wine simmers gently nearby on the warming plate. Family and guests gravitate to the kitchen, drawn by the inviting warmth of the Aga. Conversations flourish, and memories are made around its comforting glow.
Beyond its culinary prowess, the Aga cooker is an energy-efficient marvel. Its cast-iron design retained heat brilliantly, reducing the need for constant power. Our new modern models even incorporate eco-friendly upgrades, making them a sustainable choice for environmentally conscious families.
Today, I can proudly share our love for the Aga cooker with friends and neighbours. Whether baking artisan bread, preparing rich casseroles, or simply curling up nearby with a good book, we know the Aga is more than just an appliance — it’s a cherished tradition that keeps our home warm, welcoming, and full of flavour.
If you're considering adding timeless charm and exceptional cooking performance to your home, an Aga cooker could be the perfect centrepiece for your kitchen. Come in and see why the AGA is......
"the heart of a home".
It is in mine and can be in yours too!

The iconic AGA cooker.
AGA and Alpine
The World’s Best Cooking Experience.
Alpine Appliance Installations Ltd. is the original installation and service company for the legendary AGA cooker in Canada.
In 1986 Alpine Appliance Installations Ltd. was selected as the first Canadian company to be trained and certified on installation and service for the legendary AGA.
The AGA is a heat storage range which is referred to as a "cooker." The AGA cooker works on the principle that the heavily framed interior made of cast iron absorbs heat from a relatively low-intensity fuel supply, either gas or electric. This fuel supply is continuously heating the cast iron. The accumulated heat can then be used for cooking by evenly radiating that stored heat out of the cast iron ovens.
The AGA cooker was invented and initially produced in Sweden. Manufacturing was moved to the U.K. in the 1930s and the AGA cooker is still produced there.
In 1988 Bruce Johnstone owner of Alpine Appliance was appointed as the Canadian representative for AGA. When it comes to the AGA, his knowledge of this iconic cooker is extensive.
As Bruce and staff often say, "Let us teach you how to cook a mouthwatering meal with ease the AGA way. On a conventional range, 80-90 percent of the food is “worked” on the top burners. In the AGA the reverse is the way. We use the multiple ovens and let them do the work while we enjoy family and friends. It's so effortless!” The AGA's ability to make a perfect meal is thanks to the precise and even radiant heat in each oven.
Alpine specializes in sales of new and rebuilt AGA's, providing knowledge, installation, and service of the iconic AGA brand and is the only full servicing dealer in Canada.
The traditional AGA requires a trained fitter upwards of 2-3 days from delivery to "firing up a build”. Each AGA cooker is hand-built in the traditional way of excellent craftsmanship!
New AGA cookers are delivered pre-assembled, in a variety of colours speeding up your ability to enjoy your meal the same day. The Total Control AGA cooker is revolutionary. You can control each oven's heat from "full to slumber mode" at the touch of a button.
Adding to the AGA line is the conventional range type of the Mercury and Elise models.

How a Traditional AGA cooker is built.
1650 lbs of cooker
Sealing and prep work
Sealing and prep work
It all starts with uncrating and moving over 1650 lbs of cast iron in the residence. Careful setting up of the base and platform is required.

It is important that all the panels be sealed prior to building to maintain gasket integrity.
Ovens and burner box
Sealing and prep work
Ovens and burner box
If the AGA is not set up correctly from the foundation of the build, the main components will not allow a level cooking surface. It is critical that each step is checked and double-checked before proceeding.
The face is on
Were half way there!
Ovens and burner box
After all the checking, we now get to install the front face and do more gasket sealing and an audit of the build so far.
Were half way there!

At this point, we have insulated and packed the insulating rock wool and vermiculite 3/4 of the way up. All gaskets and seals must be installed and another analysis of fittings and adjustments are completed.
More insulation
Were half way there!
Were half way there!
More checking, adjusting, gas flue way sealing, all so critically important to the AGA and all of the components. Step by step it is coming together.
Great job Jeff !!
When its all done!
Wow, finally done!
There is so much that goes into the assembling of a traditional AGA cooker. From the kitchen design many months back, even years in some cases, to the fuel services, the venting, delivery, and assembly.
If you are moving your precious AGA cooker, only Alpine Appliance has the supplies and equipment to do so. Moving this fabulous cooking appliance is not for the faint of heart!
One lucky owner!
These owners now have seven cooking stations on this model. Ovens that will roast, bake, simmer, warm, and hold food. On the top deck, there is a boiling and simmering plate to cook on as well as a warming deck to keep your plates, tea, and coffee warm. And yes the ovens will fit a 30 lb bird of your choosing !!
