There are mainly two types of cooking stoves available in the market. They are either LPG Gas based or Electricity based cooking stoves. In the world, the majority of the population has been using LPG gas-based cooking stoves since generation. They are proven to be really effective and cook delicious food in time. They are also easy to use and easily available in the market.
Unlike LPG gas-based stoves, Electricity based cooking stoves use electricity as fuel to cook food. They are much more efficient and convenient compared to LPG gas-based stoves. However, they are also quite expensive and rare compared to regular stoves. They are generally known as Induction Stoves as they use/induct infrared rays to supply heat energy for cooking.
But Electricity based cooking stoves are the topic for some other day. Today, we will be talking about LPG gas-based cooking stoves. LPG gas stoves are further divided into two types i.e. Manual Ignition and Automatic Ignition Gas Stoves. Among them, we will cover the Automatic Ignition Gas Stoves in this article.
As the name suggests, Automatic Ignition Gas Stoves operate automatically when used. They ignite the flame themselves without any manual effort. They are also much easier and safer to use for cooking purposes. In a survey of an area, it was found that the majority of households used automatic ignition gas stoves for cooking. The rest of the households were also thinking of shifting to the auto-ignition gas stoves.
Well, that was for the introductory part. Now comes the main question, 'How do automatic ignition gas stoves work?'
The answer to this question is pretty simple and easy to understand. The LPG gas needs a spark to ignite, right? So, when you turn on the knob, the gas will come out from the burner. There is a built-in igniter in the gas stove that lights up the flame when you turn the knob. It will make a sound when the igniter produces a spark. The igniter will instantly light up the flame so there are no leakage issues.
Here, the igniter doesn't use flame sparks which may lead to fire accidents. Instead, it uses electricity sparks to ignite the flame which is much safer and efficient. After the flame is ignited, you adjust the intensity of the flame as per need. Now, your stove is ready for some delicious cooking.
