HOW DOES THIS COOKTOP COMPARE

WITH YOUR OLD ONE?

Type of Cooktop Description How It Works

Electric Coil Flattened metal Heats by direct contact with the pan and by heating the air under the pan. For best

tubing containing cooking results, use good quality pans. Electric coils are more forgiving of

electric resistance warped pans than radiant or solid disks. Heats up quickly but does not change

wire suspended heat settings as quickly as gas or induction. Electric coils stay hot enough to

over a drip pan. continue cooking for a short time after they are turned off.

Radiant Electric coils Heat travels to the glass surface and then to the cookware, so pans must be flat on

(Glass Ceramic) under a glass- the bottom for good cooking results. The glass cooktop stays hot enough to

Cooktop ceramic cooktop. continue cooking after it is turned off. Remove the pan from the surface unit if

you want cooking to stop.

Induction High frequency Pans must be made of ferrous metals (metal that attracts a magnet). Heat is

induction coils produced by a magnetic circuit between the coil and the pan. Heats up right away

under a glass and changes heat settings right away, like a gas cooktop. After turning the control

surface. off, the glass cooktop is hot from the heat of the pan, but cooking stops right away.

Solid Disk Solid cast iron Heats by direct contact with the pan, so pans must be flat on the bottom for good

disk sealed to the cooking results. Heats up and cools down more slowly than electric coils. The

cooktop surface. disk stays hot enough to continue cooking after it is turned off. Remove the pan

from the solid disk if you want the cooking to stop.

Gas Burners Regular or sealed Flames heat the pans directly. Pan flatness is not critical to cooking results, but

gas burners use pans should be well balanced. Gas burners heat the pan right away and change

either LP gas heat settings right away. When you turn the control off, cooking stops right away.

or natural gas.

Your new cooktop has electric coil surface units.

If you are used to cooking with gas burners or other

types of electric cooktops, you will notice some

differences when you use electric coils.

The best types of cookware to use, plus heat-up and

cool-down times, depend upon the type of burner or

surface unit you have.

The following chart will help you to understand the

differences between electric coil surface units and any

other type of cooktop you may have used in the past.
