Induction Cooktops
Welcome to induction
the cooking technology that’s rewriting the rules of the kitchen. By replacing old-school flames and coils with cutting-edge magnetic energy, induction delivers speed, control, and safety that feels almost futuristic. It’s not just an upgrade — it’s a smarter, cleaner, more efficient way to cook that makes every meal feel like a culinary flex.
Why choose an induction cooktop?
Faster heat, instant precision.
Think of it as cooking in the fast lane — with total control. Induction cooking technology uses an invisible magnetic field to heat your cookware directly, skipping the slow preheat of gas or electric. We’re talking water that boils before you’ve found the pasta, and heat levels that shift from hard sear to gentle melt in a heartbeat. It’s precision engineering for the everyday chef — so your dinner turns out exactly as you imagined, every single time.
Energy efficiency that saves.
With induction, almost every watt of power goes straight into your food — not your kitchen air. The result? Faster cooking, lower utility bills, and a kitchen that stays cooler while you work. It’s smart energy use without sacrifice, turning your cooking space into a lean, green, flavor-making machine.
Induction Technology
No flames. No glowing coils. No “don’t touch that” moments. Induction cooktops only heat when a compatible pan is present — and the surface cools down fast once it’s gone. That means fewer burns, less fire risk, and more peace of mind. It’s the kind of safety upgrade you don’t just notice — you feel it every time you cook.

Induction cooktop FAQs
What pans work with induction cooktops?
Induction requires magnetic cookware. To see if your pan will work, see if a magnet sticks to the base of your pan. If it does, you’re ready to cook. Cast iron and many stainless-steel pans work beautifully; copper and aluminum without magnetic bases will not.
Is induction cooking safe?
Yes — and here’s the science: Induction transfers energy directly into the metal of your pan, not into the air, and certainly not into you. The cooktop itself stays cooler, there’s no combustion, and most models automatically shut off when no pan is detected. In short: it’s one of the safest ways to cook.
Can I install an induction cooktop myself?
For a built-in cooktop, it’s best to call in a pro. Professional installation ensures your cooktop is wired correctly, ventilated properly, and ready to deliver its best performance for years to come.
