How To Choose A Gas Stove?
1. Placement method
There are three main installation methods of gas stoves on the market: built-in gas stoves, table gas stoves. The installation method is different, and the use effect is naturally different.
Built-in gas stove: This type of gas stove is to open a hole in the place where the gas stove is ready to be installed, and the gas stove is installed in an built-in way in the stove for use.
This installation method makes the gas stove and the surrounding countertop into a plane, which not only ensures the flatness of the cabinet countertop, is conducive to cleaning and cleaning, not easy to stain oil, but also convenient to match the design with other kitchen utensils, and the integrated appearance looks very neat and beautiful. Therefore, the vast majority of gas stoves on the market today are built-in gas stoves.
Table gas stove: This type of gas stove is to put the four feet of the gas stove directly on the kitchen counter to use.
The process of reserving holes is eliminated, and the three-dimensional whole body can enter oxygen, the combustion efficiency will be higher than that of the embedded, and the price is also a lot cheaper. However, it is larger in size, naturally takes up more space, and the appearance is not as beautiful as the embedded, it is not tidy enough, and it is easy to leak into the bottom shell due to the overflow of the soup when cleaning, and it is more troublesome to clean.
2. Size of firepower
If you want to buy a cost-effective gas stove, the most critical and basic factor: firepower.
The size of the fire power of the gas stove directly determines the size of the heat. For example, boiling the same pot of water, the use of small firepower may take 10 minutes, and the use of large firepower only takes 5 minutes or even faster. The measurement of gas stove firepower depends on two parameters: heat load and thermal efficiency.
1) Heat load represents the heat generated per unit time, the greater the heat load, the more heat.
It is usually concentrated between 4KW-5KW, which can meet different cooking methods such as steaming, braising, frying and stir-frying. Viosea gas cooker can also reach 5.2KW, this one can reach 5.2KW, please click here. But the more heat generated does not mean that the quality of the gas stove is better, it is also limited by energy efficiency, that is, thermal efficiency.
2) Thermal efficiency is equivalent to the profit utilization rate of the gas stove, and the product of thermal load and thermal efficiency is the final firepower of the gas stove.
Therefore, when choosing a gas stove, we should be clear that in addition to selecting a gas stove with a high heat load, we should also choose a high thermal efficiency, otherwise, the heat load can not keep up with the high conversion rate, which will lead to very expensive gas when used, and the fire effect will be very poor.
3. Panel selection
At present, there are three types of gas stoves on the market for consumers to choose from: stainless steel, tempered glass and rock panel .
Stainless steel can be said to be the earliest version, its biggest advantage is that it is strong, high temperature resistance, can withstand the weight of multiple kitchen utensils, and it is also very convenient to clean, in general, stainless steel is a very affordable panel material.
However, the use of stainless steel for a long time is prone to rust corrosion and other problems, resulting in an unattractive appearance. And it is not resistant to friction, as long as it is hard objects such as steel balls, knives, spatulas, etc., it is easy to appear scratches, and special attention needs to be paid to maintenance.
Tempered glass also has strong corrosion resistance, easy to clean, stained with oil only need to wipe gently with a wet rag to clean up. Compared with stainless steel, the wear resistance of tempered glass is greatly improved, as long as it is not a large amount of friction, there will be no scratches and wear. At the same time, its appearance is more fashionable, and it is loved by young consumers who pursue beauty.
However, the drawback is that its high temperature resistance is poor, so consumers should pay more attention to the temperature difference when using it.
Rock panel looks more high-end atmosphere, corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, wear resistance, easy to clean, with a rag can be cleaned, the pursuit of high-end texture consumers can choose this.
4.The safety of gas stove
As a kitchen appliance that needs to be used frequently, the safety performance of gas stoves is a factor that cannot be ignored. After all, in this fast-paced era, many people are not focused, careless, burning dry pot, panel burst phenomenon is not uncommon, for the safety of our family, I still suggest that you focus on choosing more protective measures when the gas stove, in order to reduce hidden dangers. Today's safety devices are mainly flameout protection devices, and the current flameout protection is mainly divided into thermocouple type and photoelectric type.
Many brands on the market have also introduced the function of anti-dry burning. It uses NTG active heat source tracking technology, which can detect the dry burning state of the pot intelligtly. Once it is found that the pot is dry burning, the air source will be turned off in time to prevent the burning of the pot and the occurrence of fire. If there are children at home, it is best to choose a gas stove with a child lock protection press switch to avoid injuries to children by mistake.
Our gas stove has the function of it will reduce the fire when you are taking away the pan, and prevent dry burning. When you are cooking, want to small fire a little, as long as the pan away from the fire will become smaller, without knob control, very convenient, and when you leave the cooking period, the pot in the dry burning, our company's gas stove can be intelligent detection of the pan of the dry burning state, automatic shutdown of the gas stove.
