• What is the radius of the glass top on the (CI) Induction and (CE) Electric Cooktop
• Induction and Electric Cooktop radius
• How to install CI Induction Cooktop or CE Electric Cooktop flush with tightest installation

Answer:

The outside radius of the cut-out is 7/16".

• The actual cooktop radius is 3/8" but the glass can vary slightly from unit to unit.
• A template is no longer provided due to differing tolerances in the template and glass.
• To ensure the tightest installation possible, use the actual cooktop glass to trace/create a template from wood or other material. That will ensure the template is an exact match to the cooktop glass.
• Previous Unframed Electric and Induction Cooktops had a cut-out radius of 1 5/16".
  • Cooktop Radius Reference
  • If a new Contemporary Induction or Electric Cooktop is installed in a previous model opening, additional countertop material will need to be removed from the outside corners or a new countertop is required.
  • A new Transitional or Professional (Framed) Cooktop would fit into the existing opening, however, it would sit on top of the countertop, not flush like the existing cooktop.
