Abstract
An electric range for household cooking purposes has a cooktop with a plurality of surface heating units in the form of coils of metal-sheathed, electrical resistance heating elements. Each unit is mounted in an opening in the cooktop. A combined reflector pan and trim ring is interposed in the opening for supporting the unit, for radiating the heating energy in an upward direction and for collecting spillage. The combined pan and trim ring is manufactured of the optimum materials so it will perform its functions, and, moreover, may be cleaned in a pyrolytic self-cleaning oven without injury or discoloration.
