Induction cooktops are popular for many households due to their precise temperature control, energy efficiency, and safety features. Unlike gas cooktops, induction cooktops use electromagnetism to heat the cookware directly, resulting in faster heating and greater efficiency.

FAQs
How do induction cooktops work?
Induction cooktops use electromagnetism to heat the cookware directly rather than heating the air around it. This means they heat up faster and are more efficient than gas cooktops.
Do I need special cookware for an induction cooktop?
Yes, you will need cookware that is specifically designed for use with induction cooktops. Look for cookware labelled "induction compatible" or "induction ready."
How do I clean an induction cooktop?
To clean an induction cooktop, ensure it is cool, and the power is turned off. Use a cooktop cleaner or a mixture of vinegar and water to clean the cooktop's surface. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals that can scratch or damage the cooktop.
