Induction cooktop installation
in Clifton Hill.

Many Clifton Hill homes had the kitchen done up some time ago, with new cabinets and appliances but the original circuits behind the walls. An induction cooktop is a heavy load and shouldn't share a line with anything. We check the existing cooktop circuit, the cable's size and condition and the board's spare capacity. Often a new cable from the board is the right answer, run through the roof space or under the floor and up into the cabinetry, to keep the period walls untouched. Switching from gas usually means a gasfitter disconnects the old supply, and we connect the new cooktop and test it. Owners of heritage homes sometimes worry about kitchen changes, but induction suits them well: no flame, no gas line, easy to keep clean. We'll plan with your cabinet maker and tell you the pan types that work with induction.
