Ceramic Hobs

Ceramic hobs combine style and functionality in a modern kitchen. The glossy surface can be damaged by food scratches and residues. Keep your kitchen clean by following a regular routine and avoiding using scrubbers or abrasive cleaners is key to keeping it looking good and working efficiently.

The hobs of this style are heated by transferring an electrical current through coiled metal elements that are hidden beneath the glass surface. They generate heat when they are activated using control knobs. Some models use an element that emits heat to the surface of the glass. Others employ halogen elements, which are far more powerful and can heat the entire surface in a series of pulses, making them particularly suitable for cook times that are quick.

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

We recommend ceramic hobs that have dual-ring designs, or 'I Flex' zone. It can be used to accommodate two single pots or one large pan. You'll require a pan that has a minimum size of 30cm to register. Additionally, we have models with a booster burner for rapid heating of specific areas or pots - ideal for stir-fry or searing steak. We also have models with an auto shut-off feature which turns off the hob after a predetermined time to avoid overheating. This is a great safety feature that will give you peace of peace of. This function is activated by pressing 'Power' on the control panel once the appliance has reached its maximum temperature.

Gas Hobs

Gas hobs, also referred to as gas stoves or gas cookers are kitchen appliances that make use of natural gas that is flammable or liquefied petrol gas (LPG) for their fuel. The flame heats the cookware as well as the air surrounding it which enables quick cooking and precise temperature control. The elevated design of a gas hob offers additional security as it stops the body from coming into contact with the flame, reducing the risk of burns. However, this elevated construction requires particular care when cleaning and using the hob to avoid accidentally spilling liquids onto the burners.

A traditional gas hob is ignited by an igniter or an igniter, and the burners are controlled by hand. Modern models come with an automatic igniter, which ensures that the gas is lit in a timely manner. The flame can be controlled with the control knobs. This makes it simple to alter the heat level. Some gas hobs come with multiple flame burners, dependent on the model. This provides greater cooking flexibility.

Gas hobs require a consistent gas supply, which can be an issue if you live in an area with a sporadic or unreliable supply. Gas hobs also require frequent maintenance to prevent corrosion and leaks. Because of this, it is important to install a gas hob after consulting a Gas Safe Registered fitter who will provide professional installation and adhere to strict safety protocols.

Gas appliances remain popular in a few regions, despite the fact that electric and induction hobs are growing in popularity. This is due to consumer preference and environmental concerns, as well local prices for energy and availability. It is crucial to think about the utility and infrastructure costs before choosing a type.

Induction Hobs

Induction hobs are the most popular choice for our customers looking for modern and stylish kitchens. Magnetism is employed to heat the pans, rather than a heated surface or burning gas beneath. Below the glass ceramic's surface are copper coils through which an alternating electric current runs through. When an induction-compatible pan is placed on top of the cooker, the coils sense the magnetic base and generate heat directly into the pan or the pan itself. This is much faster than traditional gas hobs and is more energy efficient too. The glass-ceramic surface remains cool to the touch and is also easy to wipe down.

As with other modern hobs, induction hobs are also designed to be more easy to clean than their gas counterparts. A simple wipe using a damp cloth is all you require to keep your induction hob looking as good as new.

Induction cooking requires that you make use of the correct cookware. All cookware including cast iron stainless steel, non-stick and cast iron, must have an iron base that is magnetized. 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 are a variety of induction hobs to choose from, from budget models up to premium brands that have TFT displays with an extensive menu of operating options. The hob will display the position of the pan in full-color when it is placed in an area of power. A control button or slider lets you to alter the power setting or set a clock. There are a variety of clever accessories, such as pan sensors that adhere to the sides of cookware and communicate with the hob using bluetooth to control the power.

Induction hobs with a built-in fan can reduce steam, smoke, and cooking odors. This model is ideal for homes with limited space since it eliminates the need for an extractor fan. Like other induction hobs, it uses 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 magnetic density at the frequency at which it operates. There are no health risks to be expected.

Electric Hobs

The best electric hobs provide a sleek finish and are designed to fit all kitchen designs. They are a good option for those who prefer the ease of use of touch controls rather than dials. They also come with a variety of options to suit your cooking requirements. The majority of these are made from glass, which is easy-to-clean and stylish in black or a white design. Some models feature the option of combining two zones in order to fit larger pans while others have an extra power boost button that provides extra heat for tasks that require a lot of effort.

Induction hobs are becoming increasingly popular due to their contemporary and clean look that is in line with the designs of today's kitchens. They cook quickly and offer a high degree of security. For example they tend to cool faster than gas cookers and have a 'hot' indicator light that remains on to inform you that the cooking area is hot to the touch. They also tend to be more efficient since the magnetic field only produces heat under the pan itself and doesn't heat the air around it.

But, there are a few things to bear in mind when selecting an induction hob that will require a particular power supply that is fitted with the correct breakers and cables, so we'd recommend having your electric hob installed by a certified electrician. They can also be quite expensive and you'll require an appropriate set of induction pans to get the most out of them. They may cost more because they require more energy.
