Differences Between Halogen and Radiant Units

Halogen units have radiant coils in the center that do not glow as brightly as the outer halogen coils.

Some cooktops have both radiant and halogen surface units. This is how they differ.

Halogen units are much brighter than the radiant units. Radiant units have a dull red glow.

Halogen units hum louder than radiant units when they are first turned on.

Halogen and radiant units cycle on and off frequently. This is normal. You will notice the cycling more on the halogen units because of their brightness.

Halogen units click when they cycle on and off. Radiant units do not. This is due to the different switches used on halogen units.

Radiant coils take about 10 seconds longer to glow than halogen units.
