Feeling excited to have finally banished the fossil gas connection from our home.
We're fortunate to have been able to install solar panels and an air-source heat pump. Now, with the removal of the ageing and probably dangerous gas hob (stove), we can finally say goodbye to gas and with it a significant source of indoor air pollution and methane emissions.

On our journey to removing gas from the house ... Step 1 completed today ... Gas hob gone and replaced by a new induction hob.
First meal cooked on it tonight and it was a dream ... For those that remember it was "easily turn on and offable"!!! #zerogasjourney #inductionhob
I was a kitchen snob who would only cook on gas. Now an induction hob is my new flame https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/feb/05/cook-gas-induction-hob-electric?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
Yup.
We shifted to an #inductionhob a couple of years ago. Never going back to gas. Induction is just brilliant.
Oh Mighty Mastodon Collective, please lend your wisdom.
We borrowed a Duxtop 9100MC induction cooktop from the Sierra Club. I love the speed and efficiency, but the high frequency sound gives me headaches.
It happens with different pots and pans. When the power level's on 3 and the induction cycles on and off, I can feel the cycling. It doesn't bother my wife, but it does me.
Is there a different make or model without the high frequency squeal?
Has anyone out there switched from a gas hob to induction?
If so, how did you find it?
Updated "Where I am at now" (thanks @Stephencrown ) : #PHEV 2 years, #ASHP, #InductionHob #NoGasMeter 1 year, #SolarPV 6kWp #Battery 10.2kWh coming soon. Also moved out of Cambridge so it is safe to cycle again :-)
