A surface heating unit in combination with a remote selector switch that controls the flow of current to the heating unit. A metal sheathed heating means of coiled configuration is provided with hinging means for mounting the heating unit in an opening in a cooktop so that food soils may be cleaned from therebeneath. A trim ring surrounds the heating means and supports the same for slight vertical movement therebetween. A utensil support framework comprising a series of ring members is telescoped with the heating means and is attached to the trim ring. A choke cable is connected between the selector switch and the heating means so that the changing of the selector switch from an ON position to its OFF position acts to lower the heating means out of contact with a utensil carried by the utensil support framework and vice versa.
