Smeg Gas Hobs @ We Sell It

Polished stainless steel and mirror glass The Smeg evolution range features hobs in polished stainless steel on a mirror glass base in 60cm and 70cm widths. Beautifully designed polished stainless steel burners together with a sleek reflective glass base give a practical and hygienic cooking surface with superb style.

Simple symmetry with innovative design Extending the Linea range are some exciting models featuring illuminated controls which are not only ergonomically designed but perfectly coordinate with our range of Linea ovens. The innovative controls are illuminated when the burner is active. The unique feature creates a visual gas safety system. If a burner is accidentally extinguished a safety valve will turn off the gas supply and the control light will also be turned off. With removable cast iron pan stands for each these new style of hobs add versatility and originality to an already esteemed range.

Comprehensive selection in brushed stainless steel The Classic range of hobs includes 30cm, 60cm, 70cm, and 90cm models. The burners on the 60cm versions are arranged in a versatile diamond configuration with front controls and a choice of pan stand either stainless steel, cast iron, or enamel. There is also an impressive 90cm 6 burner hob which fits directly on to the carcase in place of a worktop.

The "Classic" range also includes five 31cm wide modular hobs, offering varying functions, which are all available in an ultra low profile version. Modular hobs can be fitted individually or it is possible to install a combination using connecting strips.

Hobs in the Linea range reflect the simple symmetrical design of the oven, and many feature directional burners beneath ³suspended² pan stands. This innovative style of pan stands allows the total width and depth of the hob to be used for placing pans, either above the burners to cook or set aside to cool.

The directional flame is almost vertical; real power is transferred to the pot as the flames spread to match the diameter of the underside of the pan. This feature causes the heat to concentrate, resulting in a high performance burner that cooks rapidly ­ faster than a traditional gas burner.

Many Smeg hobs include ultra rapid burners, which respond very quickly, and are ideal for wok cooking. These powerful burners offer up to 5kW of power, and are one of three designs: a triple flame burner with a single control, a dual flame burner with a single control, or a dual flame 3-way burner. This last type is composed of am auxiliary and a rapid burner, together capable of generating more than 4kW of power. Two control knobs allow both parts of the burner to work together, or they can be used independently.

Safety valves are fitted on all hobs throughout this brochure. Valves on the burner cut off the gas flow if the flame is accidentally extinguished. In this even shuts off immediately, regardless of the position of the control knob.

The Ultimate in professional styling, flush-fitted or ultra low profile hobs are available in both the Classic and Linea ranges. The Ultra low profile base lies a mere 4mm above the work surface, and a completely flat surface is achieved with the flush-fitted versions.

When exposed to a direct flame all stainless steel will tarnish, however using the appropriate cleansing agents will virtually restore its original appearance.
