Fisher & Paykel Series 7 Induction Cooktop

Bridgeable zones allow you to combine two separate cooking elements into one large surface. This is ideal for using oversized cookware like griddles, fish poachers, or large roasting pans that wouldn't fit on a standard burner.

Yes, this model supports both flush and raised installation. Flush installation creates a seamless, uninterrupted surface with your countertop, while raised installation sits slightly above the surface for a more traditional look.

Induction uses electromagnetic energy to heat the cookware directly rather than heating the surface of the cooktop itself. This results in much faster boiling times, more precise temperature control, and a surface that stays cooler to the touch, making it safer and easier to clean.

Yes, induction cooktops require cookware with a magnetic base, such as cast iron or magnetic stainless steel. If a magnet sticks to the bottom of your pot or pan, it will work on this cooktop.

The touch and slide interface is designed to be responsive, but like most glass-surface touch controls, it performs best when the surface is clean and dry. If the controls get wet, the cooktop may become less responsive as a safety precaution.

Because the cooktop surface itself doesn't get as hot as traditional electric burners, spills are less likely to bake onto the glass. You can usually wipe it clean with a damp cloth or a specialized glass cooktop cleaner once the surface has cooled.
