Folks,
I want to modify my furnace from Propane to electricity.
First question: can standard incoloy elements handle the temperatures required? I suppose 1200 deg F to be safe?
They are comparatively cheap and can be custom made to fit the furnace.
Second question: Approx what power am I looking at? Inner dimensions with lid on is: dia 8 inches , height 10 inches. Wall thickness 4 inches. I guesstimate 2 kw will do.
Third question: How do I do the temp control cheaply?
