General Electric ZHU36RSJSS Induction Cooktop 36 in

Product Description

The General Electric ZHU36RSJSS is a 36-inch induction cooktop finished in stainless steel. Induction cooktops transfer heat directly to compatible cookware through electromagnetic energy, producing faster heat-up times and more precise temperature control than gas or radiant electric surfaces. The surface itself stays cooler than traditional cooktops, reducing the risk of contact burns during service. This unit is intended for permanent countertop installation and is sized for residential kitchen applications. Licensed appliance technicians and qualified installers handle the hookup and commissioning of units like this one.

This cooktop is suited for residential kitchen installations requiring a 36-inch cut-out. The stainless steel finish is a common spec in both new construction and remodel projects. Induction technology requires ferromagnetic cookware — cast iron and magnetic stainless steel pots and pans will work; aluminum and copper cookware will not. Verify cookware compatibility before installation is complete so the end user is informed at handoff.
