A factory fitable or user retrofitable system for controlling the level of waste heat emissions from a cooker, in particular a heat storage or radiant heat cooker (or stove), by way of a plurality of user mountable and demountable heat insulation devices. The said cooker heat-insulation device comprises a composite structure of glass, ceramic, and metal layered materials, and is shaped to match a particular cooking surface. The device is arranged to be located in proximity to a cooking surface of a cooker to receive heat therefrom at one side and to provide heat insulation at another side opposite the said one side, the device further including an engagement formation for readily moving the device into, and out of, an operative position with respect of the said cooking surface. The device 12 can be readily arranged for employment in relation to a hob-plate and common hob lid 10 and secured by material ties 16, 18. An alternative embodiment may be arranged for use in association with an oven door of a heat storage or radiant heat cooker for controlling the waste heat emissions from those regions. |
