Other models use halogen elements which are more powerful and will heat the entire surface area in multiple pulses, making them particularly suitable for cook times that are quick.

Certain ceramic hobs are equipped with advanced safety features, such as residual heat indicator, which warns you when the surface is hot to the surface. This can prevent burns. Some ceramic hobs have child locks to prevent children from accidentally altering the settings.

The flame heats both the cookware and the surrounding air. This allows for rapid cooking and precise temperature control.

This design is elevated and requires particular care when using or cleaning the hob to avoid accidentally spilling liquids onto the burners.

It is important to consider the cost of utility and infrastructure before choosing a type.

Induction Hobs

Induction hobs are the most popular choice for our customers who are looking for a sleek, clean-looking kitchen. Magnetism is employed to heat the pans, rather than an evaporating surface or burning gas beneath. Below the glass ceramic's surface sit copper coils that an alternating electric current runs through. When an induction-compatible dish or pan is placed on top of the cooker, the coils sense its magnetic base and cook the pan or pot directly. This is much more efficient than traditional gas hobs, and is more energy efficient as well. The glass-ceramic surface is cool to touch and easy to clean.

Induction hobs are designed to be easier than gas hobs to wash. To keep your induction hob clean as new, all you need is a damp cloth.

If you're not sure whether your existing cookware is induction-compatible, a quick test is to place a magnet on the bottom of the pan. If it sticks firmly, then your pan is induction-compatible.

There is a wide selection of induction hobs to choose from, from budget models up to top brands that feature TFT displays with a comprehensive operating menu.

There are also clever accessories available, such as pan sensors that stick to the sides of your cookware and connect to the hob via bluetooth to regulate the power in a precise manner.

One of our most popular models is an induction cooker with an integrated extractor fan to cut down on the smoke, steam and cooking smells. This model is ideal for homes with limited space as it removes the need for a separate extractor fan. It uses magnetic fields within the kilohertz frequency range in order to generate heat that is then absorbed by the pan and its contents.

There are no health hazards to be anticipated.
