Hobs induction

Induction hobs are a favourite for our customers looking for modern and stylish kitchens. Magnetism is used to heat the pans, instead of a heated surface or burning gas beneath. Copper coils are situated under the glass ceramic surface. An electric current that is alternating is pushed through them.

This is a lot faster than traditional gas hobs and more energy efficient as well. The glass-ceramic surface is cool and cool to feel and easy to clean.
