Helpful Tips:Range

If you purchase an electric range with a glass cooktop or solid surface burners, you may have to replace your cooking pots and pans as well. For these types of elements it is critical the bottom surface of these utensils be absolutely flat. To test your pots, stand a straight-edge or ruler on its edge across the bottom of the pan. If the straight edge isn't in 100% contact across the bottom surface of the pan, it is not usable.

When using foil inside the oven to help keep it clean, keep it at least one inch from any electric heating element. The foil can reflect the heat back to the element causing overheating and premature failure. Do not put foil on the oven racks as it inhibits proper air circulation and can cause poor cooking results.

When cooking on an electric surface element, do not allow the heater to glow red hot. When that happens it means that the pot can not absorb all the heat generated by the element. You should reduce the setting one position. This excess heat can discolour the element drip bowl and even melt the steel element frame. In addition it also wastes electricity and reduces the lifespan of the element.

If you notice a 'hot spot' on your electric range surface or oven element, replace it before it fails when you're in the middle of cooking a big or important dinner.
