Keeping your hob clean with a regular routine and avoiding using abrasive cleaners or scrubbing pads is key to keeping it in good condition and functioning efficiently.

Certain models include a radiant element, which emits heat through the glass surface. Some models use Halogen elements that are more powerful. They heat the entire surface in repeated pulses.

Many ceramic hobs we sell have advanced safety features like residual heat indicators that warn you when the surface is still hot to the touch, thereby preventing burns. Certain ceramic hobs come with child locks that stop children from accidentally changing the settings.

Beneath the glass ceramic surface are copper coils through which an electric current that is alternating runs through. When an induction-compatible pot or pan is placed over the cooker, the coils detect its magnetic base and cook the pan or pot directly. This is more efficient than traditional gas stoves and more energy-efficient. The glass-ceramic surface remains cool to the touch and is easy to clean.

Induction hobs are designed to be easier than gas hobs to wash. A simple wipe with an damp cloth is all you require to keep your induction hob looking as fresh as new.

This model is ideal for homes with limited space as it eliminates the need for an extractor fan. Similar to other induction hobs it makes use of magnetic fields at frequencies within the kilohertz spectrum to create the heat that is absorbed by your pan and its contents. In normal operation, the magnetic fields are within the range of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection's reference values for the magnetic density at the frequency at which it operates. There are no health risks to be expected.

Electric Hobs
