old house built in gas hob (about 8 years) is not working anymore
thinking of change it to ceramic hob, but the salesman said cannot because the hole of the kitchen top is too big. cannot fit in

anyone encounter this problem before, how to solve it ????

Find a bigger ceramic hob?

cannot ..... I've tried to ask a few shops
they said normally gas hob is bigger than electric ceramic hob...................

but i heard some people can change from gas hob to ceramic hob.....???? how they solve their problem ????

If not mistake, they putting ADD on into it...additional plat.
I remember someone done that before, maybe good to check on this topic and redirect them to your question here.

A good solution with a stainless steel plat solved your problem

hope that solves your problem but you will need to prepare a minimum 20amp wiring point for ceramic hob.

Is not 15amp?

15amp is for Water heater. Just to share how to calculate.
eg:
Water Heater 3600w / 240v = 15amp
EEG 75201 4500w / 240v = 19amp

Fotile HL7B require 13amp normal socket point only

SOrry, my bad...
Indeed is 20amp, as I was thinking that I asked asked my contractor laying 15amp cables, in fact I asked 20amp for hob and oven..

first, I think I need to find someone to tailor make the stainless steel plate......

is the fotile hob consume a lot of electric power since it needs 20amp

pls pm me the price of the hood on the photo too.....

electric hobs memang nd around 20amp. According to FOTILE's research, this hob is more energy efficient compared to gas hob.

Just a reminder to other forumers, Please PM me if u wan 2 ask about price and do not post in thread as i might overlook your message. Preferably to join my facebook to view the prices and chat in facebook.
