The new electric Rational iCombi Pro, commissioned and tested in the Woodston Primary School kitchen.

This week at Woodston Primary School in Peterborough, we removed an ageing gas cooking line and replaced it with a brand-new all-electric setup. The new kit is a Rational iCombi Pro combi oven and a Falcon flat-top range. It is another school kitchen quietly making the move away from gas, and there are good reasons why.

Why schools are switching to electric

Across England, school and public-sector kitchens are steadily moving from gas to electric catering equipment. This is not a fad. It is being driven by three very practical pressures.

What we installed at Woodston Primary School

Out went the old gas line. In its place, two workhorse pieces of electric kit, supplied, delivered and fully commissioned:

From kerbside delivery to a fully commissioned, flame-free kitchen.

The result

The Woodston Primary School kitchen team now has a cleaner, safer, flame-free line that is ready for whatever net-zero brings next, with none of the ongoing headache of an old gas system. It is a straightforward upgrade that pays off every single service.

If you run a school or public-sector kitchen and you are weighing up the move from gas to electric, we can help you plan it, supply the right kit and arrange installation with minimal disruption, usually inside a school holiday window.

Two schools, two kitchens, one straightforward mission: replace old gas with proven electric equipment, reduce running costs, improve safety and align with net-zero targets. Both Woodston Primary School and Nene Valley Primary School are now ready.
