With some states banning gas and US federal agencies such as the CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) considering the same, alternative cooking options are highly in demand, such as electric and induction appliances. THOR Kitchen’s Professional Tilt Panel Electric Ranges are the latest in the brand’s line of energy-efficient ranges. The two new models offer enhanced functionality and accessibility through an innovative tilting panel, which is motorized and touch-controlled with an LCD display that can be tilted up to the user’s preferred angle. When the user is finished viewing and controlling the range’s settings, the panel will automatically or manually lower back down seamlessly into the front of the appliance.
The Tilt Panel Electric Ranges are available in a 30-inch model, which features 4.6 cubic feet of oven capacity, and a 36-inch model with 6 cubic feet of oven space. Each stainless steel range has a sleek cooktop surface made with black polished glass ceramic and complemented with professional-style control knobs. Five radiant electric heating elements provide a range of low to intense heat, from a 100-watt warming zone to a high-powered 3,000-watt quick boil element. Using a true convection fan that evenly blows heat from the 800-watt heating element, the oven provides multiple cooking modes including air fry, bake, broil, roast with built-in meat probe, and keep warm, providing the flexibility needed to create versatile meals.
A self-cleaning cycle uses high temperature to power through soils in the oven cavity, requiring only a wipe down at the end of the cycle. THOR Kitchen’s Professional Tilt Panel Electric Ranges align with consumer and industry demands for energy-efficient appliances. With many cities across the United States enacting building codes to reduce reliance on gas, builders, architects and developers are seeking electric cooking options for their home construction projects. THOR Kitchen's Professional Tilt Panel Electric Ranges are an ideal solution for specifiers looking to meet these new codes, and for homeowners who would like to replace their existing appliances with cleaner, more energy-efficient products.
