Research has shown that cooking on gas hobs can create indoor pollutants that are well over the regulated UK and EU air quality standards. These pollutants are created by the interaction of a naked flame and cooking oil that has evaporated in the cookware. This is particularly common when using non-stick cookware, that are commonly used with gas hobs.

When an induction-compatible pan is put on top, it causes the magnetic field to create electricity within the iron inside of the pan, thereby heating it and indirectly cooking whatever's inside. These hobs are famous for their speedy cooking and are energy efficient. Many homeowners report an overall reduction in cost of cooking.

Some sources indicate that induction hobs release high levels of electromagnetic fields - at frequencies in the kilohertz spectrum when they are employed. When you are at a distance that isn't too far from the appliance, these fields should not be harmful to your health, and they decrease as you get further away.
