There are many different styles and sizes available along with a variety of hob types such as electric, ceramic and domino. + +Electric hobs are easy to clean and feature smooth surfaces. However, they take a long time to heat up or cool off. They also only work with flat-bottomed pans, and may have heat indicators. + +Ceramic Hobs + +Ceramic hobs are an excellent way to cook. They have a fashionable and sleek design, while remaining simple to use. They function with heating elements that are placed under the glass surface that is tempered to spread heat evenly and quickly across your cookware. Ceramic hobs come in a variety of styles ranging from traditional gas burners to more contemporary electric zones and the majority of them have a black-glazed finish that is tough and resistant to scratches and chips. + +These hobs have smooth, flat surfaces that are easy to clean. You can clean them with any standard kitchen cleaner. They don't also have open flames, making them an ideal choice for people with family members or elderly relatives in the house. Typically, they feature controls that can be rotary or touch to increase safety, as well as a residual heat indicator that warns you when a zone is still hot after the pan is removed from the oven. + +They cost more than a basic electric cooker but cheaper than an induction model and can be a good option for those that do not have gas on their residence. Like induction models they can be more efficient than other kinds of hobs but only if your cookware is fitted with an elongated base that maximizes the surface contact with the elements. The heating system will not recognise pots and pans if they are not exactly the same size as the element. + +It is essential to employ a certified electrician install your ceramic hob since working with electricity can be risky if it's not done correctly. If you do not have your ceramic stove installed by a professional could invalidate the warranty and cause future fire hazards. It's worth it to have peace of mind knowing your new cooktop will be safe to use. + +Gas Hobs + +A gas hob, also known as a gas cooktop, is powered by liquefied or natural petroleum gas (LPG) and is typically built into your kitchen counter or unit. The burners can be lit manually using matches or lighters. They are controlled by knobs to adjust the heat during cooking. Gas hobs are more efficient than electric models, and they can be used to cook in any style. + +The drawbacks of gas hobs are they require the use of gas and a ventilation system to function, making them more expensive to install than electric ones and they might not be as efficient as induction hobs. Gas hobs can also pose a safety hazard as they are made of flammable gas and require regular maintenance to identify leaks. + +Another popular option is an induction stove that makes use of electromagnetic technology to directly heat your pans, allowing them to boil water much faster than gas models and allowing precise temperature control. However, induction hobs only work with induction-compatible pans and can be a bit more expensive than other types of hobs. + +Another alternative is a ceramic-glass stove. It has a sleek look and is easy to clean. It's available on both induction and electric models and is usually the ideal choice for those who prefer an elegant, modern look to their kitchen. However, it's worth noting that this type of stove can become very hot to the touch and requires longer to cool and heat down compared to electric or gas models. + +Freestanding gas hobs or stoves are a more traditional option that is suitable for kitchens that are large and open-plan designs where they can be the focal point. It requires a space and is typically installed by an expert who is competent to manage the installation process, which involves handling gas connections that can present risks if they are not handled properly. + +Hobs Induction + +A popular option for those who want an elegant and efficient method to cook, induction hobs utilize electromagnetic induction technology to warm pans. In the glass surface, there are coils which when a suitable pan is placed on top of them emit a magnetic field which creates an electrical current that flow through the bottom of the pan. This generates heat which quickly warms the food inside the cooktop while it remains cool to the touch. + +Induction hobs are also renowned as being more energy efficient than conventional models, whether they are electric or gas. They only heat the space where the pan is set which helps reduce energy consumption and waste. Many induction hobs have a safety feature that shuts the hob off if there is no pan or in the event that it is removed. This helps reduce the amount of energy wasted. + +Like gas hobs and induction models come with a variety of control options, including dial, slide and touchscreen controls. The slider control is like a standard knob on a cooker and allows you to adjust the power level in one simple motion. A dial control is similar, and has a large dial which can be turned to select the required setting. Hobs with touchscreens are another option, which is typically found on more expensive and sophisticated induction models. They have an enlightened digital display that makes it easy to read and modify settings. + +As an additional piece of tech, induction hobs can be equipped with built-in extractors that work in conjunction with the hood to draw smoke and steam from the kitchen, and also prevent condensation and mould. They can be operated in a way that is distinct from the other hobs and are usually activated through a sensor or button. They can also be programmed to automatically switch on once an [oven](https://www.ovensandhobs.uk/) is placed over a cooking zone. + +Induction hobs are limited due to the fact that they require specialized cookware to work. The bottom of the pot has to be magnetic to be able to generate the electromagnetic induction process and even then, it's not guaranteed to work with all models. Cast iron stainless steel with a magnetic base, and some non-stick pans are commonly used in conjunction with induction hobs, although you should always read the manufacturer's advice to ensure the pan you are using is compatible before purchasing a new model. + +Domino Hobs + +Domino hobs are ideal for those with a small kitchen who still desire the freedom to experiment with different cooking styles. You can build a modular kitchen space by mixing and matching two-zone gas, ceramic and induction domino stoves, and even a Siemens grill. + +Solid plate hobs are by far the most simple type of hobs. They make use of sealed metal plates to heat electrical elements, which then warm your cookware. These are inexpensive, easy to use and hard-wearing. They can take a long time to cool and heat up, and are more expensive to operate than other types of hobs. + +The halogen model is a popular alternative to solid-plate hobs. It utilizes a row of halogen bulbs that are placed on a glass ceramic substrate to produce heat. This type of hob is fast and responsive due to the fact that the bulbs are bright and direct heat into the pan. Halogen hobs are not as efficient in energy use and are susceptible to damage by scratching the surface. + +Induction hobs, a new type of hob becoming more popular, utilize electromagnetic technology to heat cooking zones rather than the surface. Induction hobs are more eco green and economical than other hobs, however they can be more expensive and require induction compatible cookware. + +Ceramic hobs are another stylish and modern choice with their flat design seamlessly blending into the worktop to add fluidity to your cooking space. They are also easy to clean with the ability to wipe clean surfaces that require no special cleaning products. Some models have a stylish frameless appearance and can be customized using dials or touch controls depending on your preferences. + +Things to look for when purchasing a new hob include overheat protection. This switches off the heating element when it is at a dangerous temperature. Also, look for residual heat indicators, which will alert you if your hob is hot to point of contact and can cause burns. Finally, a pause function lets you temporarily disable all cooking zones in use. This is useful when you have to leave the kitchen for a while. \ No newline at end of file
