These pollutants are caused by the interaction between an unlit flame and vaporized oil from the cookware. This is especially prevalent when using nonstick pans with gas hobs. In order to minimise the risk of these pollutants, it's important to avoid burning any flammable objects near a gas burner.

Consider your cooking needs and how you would like your new stove to be designed. But, you must also consider practical considerations like the space you have available, as well as the energy efficiency rating you are looking for.

A popular option for modern homes, electric hobs can be found in a range of styles and finishes from simple coil hobs to sophisticated ceramic or glass models with touch controls. They're fairly easy to clean and typically offer a more precise temperature control than gas hobs, but may take longer to warm up and cool down in comparison.

Induction hobs

In contrast to electric and gas hobs, induction hobs use magnetism rather than direct heat to warm pots and pans. Induction hobs have coils beneath the glass surface, which run a varying electric current. When an induction-compatible pot is placed on the top of the hob, the magnetic force generates electricity in the iron core of the pan which then heats it, and in turn cooks whatever is in the. Induction hobs are renowned for cooking faster and being energy efficient. Many homeowners report a reduction in their overall cooking cost.

Some sources claim that induction hobs emit high levels of electromagnetic fields - at frequencies in the kilohertz spectrum when they are used. At normal distances from the appliance, these fields will not be harmful to your health, and they diminish as you get further away. However, these magnetic fields may interfere with pacemakers so it's best to keep a minimum of 5-10 centimeters between the cooker and any pacemaker.

Induction hobs also require specific cookware. These cookwares must have a flat bottom, and are usually made from steel or iron with a magnetic layer and cast iron is a popular choice, but you can also find induction-compatible stainless steel, copper and aluminum (check the label to determine if they are compatible).

One of the biggest advantages of cooking with gas on glass is that they are much easier to clean than traditional stainless steel models. It is important to remember that only flat-bottomed pans and pots are recommended for use on glass cooktops. This is because a rounded bottom will cause too much of the surface to come in contact with the burners, which can result in the overheating of the cooktop and causing damage.

Glass on glass cooktops are also less maintenance-intensive than stainless steel models. Stoves made of stainless steel must be maintained regularly to avoid burns and other damages. A glass cooktop can be cleaned with a sponge or cloth and cleaning solution. They also come with an inbuilt shut off valve that can shut off the flames if they accidentally turn off.
