Induction cooktop installation
in Fitzroy North.

More Fitzroy North families are cutting the gas bill by moving to induction, electric hot water and heat pumps. Each one adds to the load on the switchboard, and a cooktop is the biggest of the kitchen loads. Before installing, we check three things: the board has space, the supply can carry the new load alongside everything else, and the cable can reach the kitchen. In houses with rear extensions, the cooktop is often on an island bench, so the cable comes up through the floor and the cabinet maker needs the position early. The cooktop needs a circuit and breaker of its own, and in older homes that often means a new board. A licensed gasfitter handles the gas disconnection. We connect the cooktop, test it, and show you how it works before leaving.

What the job involves, warning signs and what's included are on our main induction cooktops page. For everything else we do locally, see electrician Fitzroy North.
