Cooking

You can choose from a range of energy efficient home appliances including highly efficient ovens, cooktops and range hoods. For cooking, heat sources range from traditional radiant coils and solid hotplates, to the latest in instant response induction and halogen cooktops.

There's a wide variety of natural gas cooktops, so you should be able to find a design to fit your needs. For example, if you use a wok you can get a cooktop with one high-speed burner and a trivet especially designed to hold a round-bottomed wok. Or you can get a rectangular five-burner unit with four regular burners and an oblong (or fish) burner in the middle. You can also put a grill over it for barbecuing or, if you're not using it, cover it up and use it as a pot stand.
