Oven Installation Cost: In 2026

Estimate oven and range installation cost — with the free electrical calculator.

Swapping an oven or range looks easy — but gas lines and 240V wiring make it an electrician's job. Here's the real 2026 installation cost.

THE SHORT ANSWER

The short answer

Oven installation runs $200–$1,000 in 2026. Electric ranges run $200–$500 (existing hookup); gas ranges $200–$1,000. The unit runs $600–$1,300+. Extra wiring adds $400–$700. Cooktop installs average $500.

01

What it costs

Replacing an electric range on an existing hookup runs $200–$500. Gas runs $200–$1,000 — the gas line work is the variable. The unit runs $600–$1,300+. Adding a new circuit runs $400–$700. Cooktop installs average $500 ($400–$800).

  • Electric range: $200–$500
  • Gas range: $200–$1,000
  • Unit: $600–$1,300+
  • New circuit: $400–$700

Electric vs gas

Electric ranges need a 240V circuit — most kitchens already have one, so the swap is simple. Gas ranges need a gas line, which may need re-running and pressure testing — the pricier path. Induction is electric with faster heating but needs the right cookware.
