Cooking in the worktop: Pitt Cooking and Invisacook in Lebanon (2026 guide)
There are two ways to cook without a hob. Pitt Cooking sets each gas burner straight into the stone, porcelain or steel of the worktop, with its own knob and nothing else: no plate, no frame, a surface you wipe in one pass. Invisacook mounts an induction unit under a porcelain worktop and cooks straight through it: no glass, no markings, nothing until a pan goes down. Both are sold, installed and serviced in Lebanon by Wakim Group, and both go into the Framework kitchens we make in our own factory and the Valcucine and Arrital kitchens we import. This guide is about which one belongs in your kitchen, what each needs from the worktop, the gas bottle and the electricity, and what they cost.
1. Pitt Cooking: burners in the stone
A Pitt Cooking burner is a single module, 213 by 503 mm for the one-burner units, flush-mounted into a worktop 4 to 35 mm thick, with the knob on top or at the front. You choose the number and the layout: one wok burner on an island, three in a row, six across a 1,200 mm run. Each burner has automatic spark ignition and flame protection, which cuts the gas if the flame goes out, and the wok burners go from 0.2 to 5 kW, the power of a professional range in a domestic kitchen. The modules run on LPG, the bottled gas every Lebanese kitchen already uses, with a half-inch connection at the top right corner. The finish is full black; a Professional brass edition is available on order. Worktop material is your choice: natural stone, Infinity porcelain from our countertop range, or steel, each cut by our factory to the Pitt template with the support bar the module needs.
2. Invisacook: induction you cannot see
Invisacook fixes to the underside of a porcelain worktop 12 to 20 mm thick and heats the pan by induction through the stone. The worktop stays a worktop: prep on it, serve on it, and when the pans are away the kitchen shows nothing but porcelain. The 2, 3, 4 and 5 zone units have independent zones of 1,600 and 2,000 W with Power Boost, a slim touch controller that mounts in the drawer below or on the surface, LED zone indicators, foreign object detection with automatic shut-off, and a cooking range of 36 to 205 degrees. It works indoors and in covered outdoor kitchens. The worktop must be porcelain, which is why Invisacook and our Infinity porcelain countertops are specified together: we cut, fit and commission both.
3. Gas or induction in Lebanon: the honest answer is both
The electricity decides, as it does for every appliance in this country. Gas cooks through a cut and runs on the bottle you already have. Induction is faster, cleaner, safer with children and does not heat the kitchen, but it needs amps: an Invisacook 2 zone draws up to 2,600 W, about 12 amps, which runs on a 15 amp line; the 4 zone draws up to 5,200 W, about 24 amps; the 5 zone up to 7,200 W, about 33 amps, which means state power, a large solar system or a dedicated generator circuit. Choose by your supply: Pitt Cooking gas where the kitchen has to cook through every cut, Invisacook where state hours or solar carry the cooking and the worktop should stay a worktop. Amps for every appliance we sell are on our generator and solar page.
4. What the worktop needs
Pitt Cooking: worktop 4 to 35 mm, minimum depth 600 mm, a cabinet of 300 mm for one burner, 600 mm for two, 900 mm for three to five, 1,200 mm for the four-burner Drum and the six-burner Foessa, a support bar under the module, and a gas line to the top right corner. Invisacook: porcelain only, 12 to 20 mm, no cut-out in the surface at all, a unit of 510 by 305 mm for two zones up to 905 by 515 mm for five, a drawer or surface position for the controller, and the electrical circuit sized to the unit. In a Framework kitchen the factory cuts the stone to the template; in an existing kitchen our team surveys the worktop first and tells you what fits before you order.
5. Cleaning and safety
A Pitt Cooking worktop has no hob edge for grease to collect under; the pan supports lift off and the stone wipes clean. Flame protection stops the gas when a pot boils over. An Invisacook worktop is porcelain all the way: nothing to scratch, no glass to crack, and the surface only warms where the pan was. Foreign object detection switches the unit off if a spoon or a phone lands on a zone, and the controller can be mounted inside the drawer, out of a child's reach.

8. Before you order
Decide the layout: how many burners, where the wok goes, whether the knobs are on top or at the front. Tell us the worktop: material, thickness, depth, cabinet widths. Tell us the gas: bottle or line, and where it sits. Tell us the electricity: subscription amps, solar inverter, state hours. Then see both lit in the showroom on George Haddad Street, Saifi, Beirut.
