Re: another oven question
Hey Corey:
I would say, your oven will come up to temp with the 2 elements. Just might take longer than you like. You mentioned they "were wired together"?? You mean both elements are controled by the same thermostat? That's ok. If you have the means to add addtional elements, you may find it is quicker to come to temp. thus cheaper in the long run to operate.
I have a 8' x 8' oven. It has 8 - 3100w elements controled by 2 seperate thermostats. When I first turn it on, all 8 elements come on. Once the oven temps rise to 350F, 4 elements shut down & 4 stay on to keep the oven constant at roughly 400F. Works great! It takes about 15 minutes to come to 400F, then about 15 minutes to cure. So I only have it one about 30 - 40 minutes a day.
Good Luck
Bob
