Gas Hobs for Singapore Homes
If you prefer the responsiveness of real flames, gas hobs are a tried-and-tested favourite in many Singaporean kitchens. Whether you're preparing daily meals for the family or experimenting with new recipes, a quality gas hob provides the flexibility and power home cooks trust. At Mega Discount Store, we carry a wide selection of gas hobs to suit every kitchen setup—whether you’re furnishing a new BTO or upgrading your resale flat.
From compact dominos to spacious 5-burner cooktops, our collection features both affordable essentials and premium models designed for serious cooking.
Types of Gas Hobs We Offer
We stock a wide range of gas hob configurations to match different cooking habits and kitchen layouts in Singapore:
Domino Gas Hobs: Ideal for smaller kitchens or minimalist setups, these compact 1- or 2-burner hobs are perfect for light cooking or as an add-on to your main hob.
3- to 5-Burner Gas Hobs: For larger households or avid home chefs, multi-burner models offer the flexibility to cook multiple dishes at once. Many come with wok burners for high-heat Asian cooking.
Cast Iron Grid Support: Need more surface space when not using the burners? Some models include flat, heavy-duty grids that can double as resting space for pots and pans.
Made in Italy Options: While most gas hobs in the market are manufactured in China, we also offer premium Italian-made selections from trusted brands like Brandt and Elba—great for homeowners looking for European craftsmanship with sleek finishes.
How to Choose the Right Gas Hob for Your Singapore Home
When selecting a gas hob, consider your kitchen layout, cooking frequency, and whether you'll need extra features like flame failure safety devices or easy-clean surfaces.
Size & Fit: Measure your inner cut-out hole before buying. Most Singapore kitchens accommodate 60cm–90cm models, but check the installation specifications to ensure a seamless fit.
Burner Configuration: If you cook multiple dishes at once, go for a 3- or 4-burner hob. Need to stir-fry or use a large wok? Look for hobs with a triple-ring or high-flame wok burner. In fact, gas hobs are especially popular among local home cooks because they can deliver the high, direct heat required to achieve "wok hei" — that smoky, charred flavour essential in stir-fried dishes like sambal kangkong, hor fun, or zi char. This is something induction hobs still can't replicate.
Ease of Cleaning: Glass surfaces are sleek and stylish, but stainless steel models are generally more scratch-resistant. Removable burner caps and drip trays also make cleanup easier.
Safety Features: Features like flame failure devices (which cut off gas if the flame is accidentally extinguished) are essential for family homes and tight kitchen spaces.
Understanding Gas Types in Singapore: LPG vs Town Gas
When shopping for a gas hob in Singapore, one key thing to consider is the type of gas supply your home uses. In Singapore, there are two main types: LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) and Town Gas (TG).
LPG (Cylinder Gas):
This is supplied in portable gas cylinders and is commonly used in private properties, landed homes, and some condos or older apartments that are not connected to the town gas network. LPG-compatible gas hobs are designed to handle the higher pressure of cylinder gas, and cylinders are usually stored below the hob or nearby in the cabinet. It's essential to monitor gas levels regularly and arrange refills with your gas supplier.
Town Gas (TG):
Town gas is piped directly into your home from the national gas grid. It's the standard in most HDB flats and newer condominiums across Singapore. If your home is equipped with a town gas line, you'll need a TG-compatible gas hob, which operates under lower pressure compared to LPG.
Important Tip: Gas hobs are not universal—they're either LPG- or TG-specific. Always check your home's gas type before buying, as installing the wrong type could pose safety risks and may void your warranty. If in doubt, consult with your gas provider or our customer service team.
