They are easy to clean and they generate instant controlled heat that's evenly dispersed. They are also energy-efficient and do not require combustion, which helps to reduce carbon emissions. Hobs Induction As the name suggests these hobs utilize induction technology to heat up pans. The coils are positioned under each cooking zone, and when they are activated by a magnetic field, they emit magnetic fields that heat the bottom of any pan made of iron. This saves energy because the hob remains cool until you put a pan on top. It is also easier to clean, and safer for children. Some induction hobs will come with a 'flexizone' area on the left that allows you to connect two zones to create a large one. This is perfect for those who use larger pans and pots. Some models, such as this WiFi enabled model from Samsung have more advanced features. For example, a pause function that lowers the temperature when removing your pan. You can also control it remotely with an SmartThings app that lets you set timers and alerts, or even switch the stove on and off when you're away. Induction hobs are also among the most energy efficient available. This is because the heat is produced and held in the pan itself, rather than the surface of the cooker's hood. In addition, they shut off more quickly if there is no pan present or when the pan is removed which reduces the residual heat.
