Keeping your hob clean with a regular routine and avoiding using harsh cleaners or scrubbing pads is crucial to keep it in good shape and functioning effectively.

These types of hobs are heated by passing an electric current through coiled elements hidden beneath the glass surface that generate heat when they are activated through control knobs. Some models have radiant elements that emits heat across the glass surface. Other models use halogen elements which are much more powerful and heat the entire surface in a series of pulses, which makes them ideal for cooking in short time.

Many of our ceramic hobs have advanced safety features such as residual heat indicators which alert you when the surface remains hot to the touch to avoid burns. Some ceramic hobs have child locks to prevent children from accidentally altering the settings.

It is essential to select the right cookware for your ceramic hob.

Gas Hobs

Gas hobs, also known as gas stoves or gas cookers are kitchen appliances that utilize natural gas that is flammable or liquefied petrol gas (LPG) to power their fuel. The flame is used to heat both the cookware and the surrounding air. This allows for quick cooking and precise temperature control. Gas hobs are designed to be elevated, which gives additional safety by preventing the body from coming into contact with the flame. This eliminates the risk of burning. However, this elevated design requires particular care when cleaning and using the hob to avoid spilling liquids on the burners.

A traditional gas hob is lit with matches or the pilot light and the burners are manually controlled. The latest models have an automatic igniter, which ensures that the gas is lit on its own. The flame can be controlled through the control knobs making it easy to alter the heat level according to your needs. Based on the model, a few gas hobs also have multi-flame burners for increased cooking flexibility.

Gas hobs require a continuous gas supply, which may be problematic if you live in a place with an unreliable or erratic supply. In addition, gas hobs require regular maintenance to guard against the risk of leaks and corrosion. Gas hobs should only be installed by Gas Safe Registered Fitters who can ensure an efficient installation and adhere to strict safety protocols.

While induction and electric hobs are gaining popularity however, there is a substantial market for gas appliances in some regions. This is largely due to consumer preference and environmental concerns in addition to local energy prices and availability. This is why it is important to assess your kitchen's utility expenses and infrastructure prior to choosing a kind of hob uk.

Induction Hobs

Induction hobs are the most popular choice for our customers looking for a sleek and clean-looking kitchen. Magnetism is employed to heat the pans rather than the surface being heated or burning gas beneath. Beneath the glass ceramic surface are copper coils through which create an electric current that alternatingly flows 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 pot or the pan itself. This is much more efficient than traditional gas hobs, and is more energy efficient too. The glass-ceramic surfaces remain 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. To keep your induction stove as fresh as new, all you require is a damp cloth.

The primary drawback with cooking induction is that you'll need have suitable cookware for it. All pans including cast iron, stainless steel and non-stick ones, need 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.

A range of induction hobs are available, from budget models to premium brands with a full TFT display and an extensive operating menu. When a pan is set in a power zone the hob will show its location on the full colour display, with the option of a slider or control button that lets you change the power setting or set an alarm. There are also clever accessories available, including pan sensors that stick to the sides of your cookware and communicate with the hob using bluetooth to control the power in a precise manner.

Induction hobs equipped with a built-in fan can reduce steam, smoke and cooking odors. This model is ideal for homes with a limited space as it removes the need for an additional extractor fan. Like other induction hobs, it utilizes magnetic fields at frequencies within the kilohertz range to generate the heat that indirectly affects your pan and its contents. In normal operation, at a distance of five to ten centimetres, these fields are in line with the reference value of the magnetic flux density established for the relevant frequency range by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection and no health risks are anticipated.

Induction hobs are increasing in popularity due to their modern and clean design that can be incorporated into modern kitchen designs. They cook fast and provide a high degree of safety. They tend to cool quicker than gas cookers, and they have an indicator light that remains on when the cooking area gets hot to the touch.
