The Importance of Induction Hobs
At The Kitchen Company, we are dedicated to enhancing or augmenting kitchen designs
and themes across the board.However, we also want to make your kitchens fully-functional - with cost and energy-efficient options.
With this in mind, we are proud to feature a fine line of induction hobs for your new or existing kitchen.
These units basically generate heat through induction. While most homes have conduction methods for heating, induction hobs are designed to create electromagnetic fields between underneath glass top coils and pans. This results in:
- Better heat distribution for ferrous metal pots and pans (iron and steel units). • Better cost and energy-efficient heating than traditional gas and electric cookers. • Foods quick a lot quicker with induction hobs.
- These units are also easier to cleanup than standard cookers - and safer for the whole family as well.
Why Choose Induction over Electric Hobs?
Induction hobs are similar to electric cookers in that they use electricity to produce high levels of cooking heat. However, induction hobs stay cooler, while standard electric cookers can retain heat and cause bodily injuries if you are not careful. With induction hobs, you can touch the pan - on the surface - without having to worry about burning yourself. Still, we recommend using kitchen gloves for both types of units.
The biggest difference is with cost and energy efficiency. In fact, induction cooking has been proven to save home and business owners a great deal of time and money. This is due to:
- Induction hobs taking less time to heat up than electric hobs.
- You won't burn as much energy with induction cooking as you will with electrical cooking.
- Induction hobs can be 90% energy-efficient - while electric hobs are only around 55%.
- Gas hobs are less than 55% energy-efficient as compared to induction hob cooking.
