Choosing the right gas stove top for your kitchen can be a big decision. Beyond size, design and cooking performance, it’s also important to understand installation, maintenance and stove safety tips that can help keep your kitchen safe.
It helps to invest in a brand that you can believe in. To help you feel right at home with Goldline, we’ve put together this updated list of the top things that all of our customers should know—while also covering some practical gas stove safety tips for everyday cooking.
1. Goldline Gives Back to the Australian Community
Goldline gives back to the Australian community by supporting the Australian armed serviceswith our Heroes Program and worthy community causes. Supporting Australian communities has been part of Goldline’s story for many years and remains an important part of our heritage.
2. Goldline Offers Solutions for Narrow and Standard Kitchens
Goldline stove tops are designed for both narrow and standard bench installations. Our compact designs are especially popular in period homes within inner-city suburbs and in regional Australian homes, where bench space can be limited.
Before choosing any cooking appliance, measure the available space carefully and check the required cut-out dimensions and adequate clearance specified for your particular model.
This is particularly important when replacing an existing stove top, as overall dimensions and bench cut-out requirements can differ between models.
3. No Mains Gas? LPG May Still Be an Option
We support towns with no mains gas by offering LPG-compatible stove-top solutions. Even without town gas, you can still enjoy the cooking control offered by a gas cooktop.
Current Goldline gas cooktops are designed for Natural Gas, with applicable models including an LPG conversion kit. Gas installation or conversion should always be completed by a suitably qualified and licensed professional.
4. Goldline Cooktops Include Warranty Support
Goldline gas stove top models come with a standard 2-year warranty and are available through major kitchen appliance retailers, including The Good Guys, Harvey Norman, Retravision and a range of other retailers and local stores.
Visit our Where to Buy / Store Locator page to find a Goldline retailer near you.
Always check the current warranty terms, product specifications and installation requirements for your particular model before installation.
5. Goldline Continues to Develop New Cooking Solutions
We are constantly innovating and launching new products, including the Goldline Lifestyle range—an affordable series of cooktops designed to give Australian households more choice.
The Lifestyle range offers flexible cooking solutions suitable for everything from alfresco cooking to formal entertaining, while Goldline’s broader range now includes gas, electric and induction cooking options.
This means homeowners can consider their available space, cooking preferences, energy supply and kitchen design when selecting the most appropriate stove top.
6. Easier Cleaning Can Also Support Stove Safety
We make cooking easier and maintenance simpler. Our easy-to-clean glass cooktops allow you to wipe down surfaces with less effort, helping keep your kitchen looking great for longer.
Regular cleaning isn’t only about appearance. Grease buildup, food residue and accumulated cooking oils around a stove can contribute to unwanted smoke and potential cooking fires if exposed to enough heat.
As part of good stove safety, allow the cooktop to cool before cleaning and regularly remove spills and residue according to the care instructions for your model.
Keeping the cooking area clean and free from combustible materials is one of the simplest ways to help keep your kitchen safe.
7. High-Powered Wok Burners Are Part of Goldline’s Heritage
High-powered wok cooking has long been an important part of Goldline’s stove-top designs. Many Goldline gas models have featured powerful wok burners, including 18 MJ/h burners on selected models, making them well suited to high-heat cooking such as stir-fries.
When using high heat, however, cooking fire safety becomes especially important.
Keep pan handles positioned safely, use suitable cookware and oven mitts where required, and take particular care when heating cooking oils. Never leave cooking unattended, especially when frying or cooking with oil at high temperatures.
Always check the specifications of the individual Goldline model for its current burner configuration and heat output.
8. Gas Stove Safety Is a Priority
Safety is a top priority at Goldline. Goldline gas cooktops feature flame failure protection designed to stop the flow of gas if the flame unexpectedly goes out.
A Flame Failure Device (FFD) adds an important layer of gas stove safety, but safe cooking habits are still essential.
Some useful gas stove safety tips include:
- Never leave cooking unattended, particularly when using high heat.
- Keep tea towels, packaging, paper and other flammable materials away from burners.
- Avoid allowing grease buildup around burners and cooking surfaces.
- Take extra care with hot cooking oils, which can ignite if overheated.
- Keep children away from hot cooking surfaces.
- Maintain the required adequate clearance around the cooktop according to the installation instructions.
- Have gas appliances installed and serviced by appropriately qualified professionals.
For broader cooking fire safety, Australian households should also understand what to do in a kitchen emergency and have appropriate fire-safety equipment available. A suitable fire extinguisher or fire blanket should be used only as directed and when it is safe to do so. If a fire cannot be controlled safely, leave the area and contact emergency services or the fire department.
Never use water on a cooking-oil or grease fire.
These everyday safety tips, combined with the appliance’s built-in safety features, can help reduce the risk of kitchen fires.
9. Goldline Also Offers Electric Cooktop Options
We also offer electric cooktop options. Alongside our gas stove tops, Goldline has introduced narrow electric models designed for kitchens where a compact cooking solution is required.
Goldline’s electric range includes useful stove safety features such as residual heat indicators, helping users identify when the cooking surface may still be hot after use. Whether you’re using gas, electric or induction, the same basic rule applies: no cooking appliance should be left completely unattended while in use.
10. Goldline Is Designed With Small Spaces in Mind
Goldline is perfect for small, compact spaces. We continue to expand our compact cooking solutions for city apartments, student accommodation, period homes and smaller kitchens.
A smaller kitchen doesn’t mean stove safety should be overlooked. In compact spaces, it becomes even more important to maintain adequate clearance, keep combustible items away from the cooking area and prevent clutter or grease buildup around the appliance.
Goldline’s narrow cooktops are designed to help homeowners make better use of available bench space while still providing practical cooking configurations.
Bonus: Essential Stove Safety Tips for Every Kitchen
No matter which Goldline cooktop you own, a few everyday habits can make a meaningful difference to cooking fire safety.
Always:
- Stay nearby while cooking and never leave cooking unattended when frying, grilling or using high heat.
- Keep combustible items away from burners and hot cooking zones.
- Clean spills, food residue, cooking oils and grease buildup regularly.
- Use appropriate cookware and oven mitts when handling hot pots and pans.
- Keep the required adequate clearance around your cooking appliance.
- Make sure children cannot easily reach hot cooking surfaces or controls.
- Follow the installation, cleaning and operating instructions supplied with your cooktop.
- Use appropriately qualified professionals for gas or electrical installation and servicing.
- Know where your home’s fire blanket and appropriate fire extinguisher are located and how they should be used.
