Gas Hobs

A gas hob, sometimes known as a gas stove or gas cooker is a kitchen appliance that uses flammable natural or liquid petroleum gas (LPG) as the source of fuel. The flame is used to heat both the cookware and the air surrounding it. This allows for quick cooking and precise temperature control. Gas hobs are designed to be elevated, which offers extra security by preventing your body from coming into contact with the flame. This reduces the chance of burning.

Therefore, it is important to assess your kitchen's utility expenses and infrastructure before choosing a model of hob.

Hobs Induction

Induction hobs are popular with our customers who are looking for an elegant, modern kitchen. Magnetism is employed to heat the pans, rather than an evaporating surface or burning gas beneath. Beneath the glass ceramic surface are copper coils through which an alternating electric current runs through. When an induction-compatible pot is placed on the top of the cooker, the coils sense the magnetic base and induce heat directly into the pan or pan itself. This is much faster than gas stoves that are traditional and more efficient in energy usage. The glass-ceramic surfaces are cool to feel and easy to clean.

Like other modern hobs, induction hobs are also designed to be easier to keep clean than their gas counterparts. To keep your induction stove as clean as new, all you require is a damp cloth.

This model is ideal for homes with limited space, as it does not require an extractor fan. Like other induction hobs it makes use of magnetic fields that operate within the kilohertz spectrum to create the heat that indirectly affects the contents of your pan. In normal operation the magnetic fields are within the range of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection's standard value for the density of magnetic fields for the frequency at which it operates. There are no health hazards to be expected.

Electric Hobs
