Overview
What is an induction cooktop?
An induction cooktop uses electromagnets to heat the pot or pan directly, rather than the cooktop surface. This creates instant heat in the cookware, while the surface stays cool to the touch and very little energy is wasted.
It cooks faster, uses less energy than gas or traditional electric, and is safer around children. It is one of the upgrades you may be able to choose through Home Energy Saver.
You will need induction compatible cookware. A magnet sticks firmly to the base of compatible pots and pans.
suitability
Is it right for your home?
An induction cooktop may suit your home if you:
- want to move off gas
- want faster cooking and better temperature control
- want a safer cooktop without open flames
An induction cooktop may need a dedicated high power circuit, which can mean a switchboard upgrade. If replacing a gas cooktop, a licensed gasfitter safely disconnects the gas.
Function
How it works
Magnetic field
Electromagnets under the glass create a magnetic field when you turn on a zone.
Heat the pan
The field heats the cookware directly, so heat appears instantly in the pot or pan.
Cool surface
Because the surface itself barely heats, it stays cool to the touch and safer around children.
Precise control
Temperature responds instantly, giving you responsive, precise control.
