Cook faster, cleaner and safer
Induction heats your pan directly using a magnetic field. It boils water faster than gas, gives precise control, and the surface stays cooler — so it's safer for families and easier to clean.
The induction difference
- Faster heat-up than gas
- No open flame or gas fumes in your kitchen
- Flat glass surface wipes clean in seconds
- Auto shut-off and child lock on most models
- VEU discount may apply when replacing a gas cooktop

Induction questions
Will my existing pots and pans work?
Most cast iron and many stainless steel pans work. A quick test: if a fridge magnet sticks firmly to the base, it will work on induction.
Do I need electrical upgrades?
Many cooktops need a dedicated circuit. We check your switchboard during the assessment and include any required work in your quote, so there are no surprises.
Can I replace gas cooking and gas hot water together?
Yes. Combining upgrades can save on installation and may let you remove your gas connection entirely — and its daily supply charge.
