When you notice a crack on your glass or ceramic cooktop, it’s natural to wonder if it’s still safe to use. Many homeowners keep cooking on a damaged surface, thinking it’s just a cosmetic issue. Unfortunately, a cracked cooktop can become a serious hazard and lead to costly repairs if ignored.

Is It Safe to Use a Cooktop With a Crack?

The short answer is no — it’s unsafe to use a cooktop with a crack. Here’s why:

• Electrical risk: Moisture can seep through the crack and reach electrical components, creating the danger of electric shock.

• Heat damage: High temperatures can make the crack expand, spreading across the surface.

• Uneven cooking: A cracked cooktop doesn’t distribute heat properly, which can affect cooking performance.

• Injury risk: Sharp edges or shattered glass can cause burns or cuts.

Even if the crack looks small, it can quickly grow worse under daily use.

When to Call a Professional

You should schedule professional service if:

• The crack appeared after a heavy object dropped on the surface.

• The cooktop glass is chipped or starting to spread.

• The burner doesn’t heat properly after the damage.
