The kitchen is the heart of the home, and the stove is an indispensable core of the kitchen. Whether it's a gas stove, electric stove, or induction cooker, proper maintenance and cleaning can not only keep the stove looking good but also ensure its efficient operation and extend its service life. Here are some practical tips for stove maintenance and cleaning.

1. Regular Cleaning

• Gas Stove: Regularly clean the burners and grates of the gas stove to prevent the accumulation of food residue and grease. Use a soft brush and mild cleaning agent, avoiding the use of steel brushes or hard cleaning tools to prevent scratching the surface of the stove.
• Electric Stove: Wipe the surface of the electric stove with a damp cloth, avoiding the use of abrasive cleaners. For stubborn stains, a mixture of white vinegar and water can be used for cleaning.
• Induction Cooker: The surface of the induction cooker should be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild cleaning agent. Avoid using metal wire brushes as they may damage the cooker surface.

2. In-Depth Cleaning of the Stove

• Gas Stove: Perform at least one in-depth cleaning per year, including inspecting and cleaning the gas pipelines to ensure there are no blockages or leaks.
• Electric Stove: Regularly check the heating elements of the electric stove to ensure there is no dust or debris blocking the heat dissipation.
• Induction Cooker: If the surface of the induction cooker has scratches, professional repair services may be needed to prevent further damage.

3. Stove Maintenance

• Gas Stove: Regularly check the igniter and safety valve of the gas stove to ensure they are working properly. If any issues are found, contact a professional for repair immediately.
• Electric Stove: Check the power cord and plug of the electric stove to ensure there is no wear or damage. If any issues are found, replace them immediately.
• Induction Cooker: Avoid placing magnetic items near the induction cooker as they may interfere with the normal operation of the stove.

4. Safety Tips

• All Types of Stoves: When cleaning and maintaining the stove, ensure that the stove has completely cooled down. Test any cleaning agent on an inconspicuous area of the stove first to ensure it will not damage the surface.
• Gas Stove: Ensure good ventilation when using a gas stove to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.
• Electric and Induction Stoves: Avoid placing heavy pots and pans on the stove to prevent damage to the heating elements.

Stove maintenance and cleaning are key to ensuring long-term efficient operation.
