Induction Cooking
Homeowners planning to create a dream kitchen are gravitating toward induction cooktops and ranges because of their significant advantages over traditional gas or electric cooking options. Induction cooking utilizes electromagnetic energy to generate heat directly within the cookware. When the cookware is placed on the glass cooktop surface, the magnetic field beneath the glass is activated, leading to friction and heat production.
Unparalleled Safety and Precise Temperature Control
With induction cooking, the cooking surface does not get hot—only the cookware does. This helps prevent accidental burns and fire hazards because nothing on the cooktop can ignite. Induction also allows for incredibly precise temperature control compared to gas or traditional electric cooktops, perfect for food lovers and home chefs.
Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings
Induction cooktops can be 90% more energy efficient than traditional counterparts. They work by transferring energy directly to the cookware rather than wasting energy by heating the cooking surface first. This makes induction cooking far more energy efficient than gas or electric.
Greener and Cleaner Cooking Option
Because there is no open flame or hot coils, induction cooktops don't generate the emissions or indoor air pollution issues of gas cooking.
The Cool Factor
Homeowners in Northeast Ohio can opt to have burners incorporated into a countertop. There is no visible cooking surface until the cooktop is activated. It’s a great option for homeowners looking for clean lines and a “wow factor” in their home.
Fast Heating and Responsiveness
Induction cooktops heat pots and pans almost instantly and can boil water faster than a microwave. The rapid heat transfer gives unmatched control over cooking temperatures, so home chefs and avid foodies are attracted to induction cooking.
Aesthetically Pleasing and Easy to Clean
Most induction cooktops have a sleek, modern look with smooth glass surfaces that can seamlessly blend into any new kitchen aesthetic. Because the surface doesn't get burning hot, spills and splatters wipe away easily without baking on messes. There are also no grates to worry about, making the cooktop easy to wipe clean.
