Innovation Beyond Installation: Zephyr HyperCore™ Induction Cooktop Introduces New Software |

Wi-Fi-enabled over-the-air updates help keep HyperCore™ current with the latest software features and technology SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Zephyr, a company that has transformed the kitchen through design, discovery, and customer care, today announced a new software experience for the Zephyr HyperCore™ Induction Cooktop powered by Impulse, highlighting one of the product's most forward-thinking capabilities: Wi-Fi-enabled over-the-air software updates that allow HyperCore™ to receive new features after installation.
The latest update introduces a redesigned software experience with new individual timers for each heating element, an improved system information bar, and a more intuitive way to access important cooking and appliance information. The updated interface was designed to make key information easier to see and access while establishing a foundation for future HyperCore™ capabilities. Unlike traditional appliances whose functionality remains fixed after installation, HyperCore™ receives over-the-air software updates when connected to Wi-Fi, helping ensure the cooktop stays current with the latest software features, functionality, and improvements. Each of the cooktop's four heating elements now includes its own dedicated timer, allowing users to keep multiple dishes on track simultaneously. Once a timer is complete, the interface can also display elapsed time until the timer is dismissed. The redesigned system information area provides clearer, at-a-glance access to appliance-wide information including battery status, Wi-Fi connectivity, notifications, and software updates. Element-specific information is also more clearly organized, allowing cooks to quickly see details such as active power, temperature, timer status, and notifications without distracting from the cooking experience. "HyperCore was designed with innovation beyond installation in mind," said Luke Siow, Zephyr President. "Its ability to receive over-the-air software updates means we can introduce new functionality and enhancements that help customers stay current with the latest HyperCore technology. This release is a great example of that capability in action." The new software experience builds on the speed, precision, and intelligent control that define the Zephyr HyperCore™. Four high-performance heating elements, advanced in-pan temperature sensing, and ExactTemp™ technology allow HyperCore™ to read heat inside the pan rather than only the surface beneath it, delivering accurate, real-time temperature control. The HyperCore™ collection is now available in both 30- and 36-inches, giving designers, builders, and homeowners greater flexibility across a range of kitchen layouts. The recently introduced 36-inch model brings the same power, precision, software capabilities, and intelligent control to a larger format. A built-in battery supports HyperCore's peak performance while allowing installation through a standard 120V or 240V outlet. Sleek removable magnetic knobs provide tactile control and effortless cleanup, while the cooktop's low-profile design integrates seamlessly into contemporary kitchens. For more than 25 years, Zephyr has transformed the kitchen through design, discovery, and customer care, playing an integral role in shaping kitchen trends. Known for redefining high-performance ventilation with a wide range of kitchen range hood solutions, along with Presrv™ Wine & Beverage Coolers designed to elevate everyday entertaining, Zephyr continues to expand its collection of cooking appliances. The Zephyr HyperCore™ Induction Cooktop brings speed, control, and modern design together to inspire today's kitchens.
