What are the Different Types of Electric Cookers?

Before you book your electric cooker installation in Sidcup, you need to decide what type of electric cooker you want for your kitchen. There are two main types of electric cookers that we install in Sidcup:

  • Electric Coil Cooktop: This is the most traditional and affordable type of electric cooker. It has metal coils that heat up when electricity passes through them. You can use any type of cookware on this cooktop, but you need to be careful not to spill anything on the coils or touch them when they are hot. They also take longer to heat up and cool down than other types of cooktops.
  • Electric Smooth Top Cookers: This is the most modern and popular type of electric cooker. It has a smooth ceramic or glass surface that covers the heating elements underneath. It is easy to clean, sleek, and stylish, and it heats up and cools down faster than coil cooktops. However, you need to use flat-bottomed and non-abrasive cookware on this cooktop, and avoid dropping anything heavy or sharp on it.

If you have bought a new electric cooker or oven, or you want to replace your old gas appliance with an electric one, you might be tempted to try to install it yourself. However, installing an electric cooker is a large and complex job that requires a certified electrician and a lot of electrical safety precautions. You don’t want to risk getting shocked or severely injured, or damaging your new cooker or your home’s wiring. That’s why you need professional electric cooker installation in Sidcup from a reliable cooker installation service.

Before you book your electric cooker installation in Sidcup, there are some things you need to do to prepare for the installation process. First, you need to measure the space for the cooker and make sure it fits your kitchen layout and your current cooker hood. You also need to check the power rating of your new electric cooker and make sure it matches your existing electrical circuit. 

If you have a less powerful cooker that uses 2.99kW or less, you can plug it into a standard socket. However, if you have a more powerful cooker that uses more than 2.99kW, you need an independent electric circuit with a dedicated fuse and switch. You also need to make sure that there is enough ventilation around the cooker and that there are no flammable materials nearby.

If your new cooker did not come with a cable and plug, you need to buy them separately and make sure they are compatible with your cooker and your socket. You also need to disconnect and remove your old cooker, if you have one, and dispose of it safely. If your old cooker was gas-powered, you need to hire a gas safe registered engineer to disconnect the gas line and cap it off. You also need to make sure that the gas supply is turned off and that there are no gas leaks.
