Function & Importance

This triple-zone radiant surface element features three independent heating rings—1100W, 2200W, and 3000W—allowing the cooktop to adapt to various pan sizes and cooking needs. Whether you’re melting butter, simmering sauces, or boiling water rapidly, the WPW10162041 element distributes heat evenly across the glass-top surface. Its advanced multi-zone design ensures efficient energy usage and consistent temperature control, making it a critical component of modern electric ranges.

A failing surface element can reduce cooking performance and compromise safety, which is why replacing it promptly is essential.
