Reply to comment by iamalext in Can anyone tell me why this model of Aga has taps on the front? by epicmoe

>STANDARD MODEL E COOKER 1941 – 1972

Wow! I love reddit. connecting so many people with knowledge and with knowledge of even where to look to find the answers, thank you.

I wonder can it be converted to a more modern back boiler without the drain cocks?

I have young grandchildren over a lot- and I'd be worried about hot water taps at such an accessible height for little hands!

I’m sure that it could be, and you might find some tech details concerning that in here: https://agaaustralia.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/AgaDeluxeCCBESolidfuel.pdf

Thanks for the thought! No need though, just paying it forward since others have randomly helped me in the past too. Plus OP is clearly a person of discerning taste and deserves help just on that basis!

You could perhaps change the taps to "vandal proof taps" they have a separate handle that comes off. Hopefully they are a standard thread. But plumbing fittings tend to be.
