Induction cooking uses electricity and electromagnetic energy to heat cookware directly instead of burning natural gas or heating a burner first.

Because the cookware itself becomes the heat source, induction cooktops cook food quickly, offer precise temperature control and waste less energy than traditional gas or electric resistance stoves. They also produce no combustion emissions inside the home, which can help improve indoor air quality.

For many homeowners, induction cooking offers an opportunity to increase energy efficiency while creating a healthier indoor environment. While gas stoves remain common in many homes, induction technology is becoming an increasingly popular option as households replace aging appliances and enjoy the faster cook time induction offers.
