Ni-chrome lets you use a lower-cost control system; silicon carbide handles higher watt loads for more compact furnaces. ADVANTAGES: • Efficient holding of temperatures at low cost. • Easily cleaned. • Very little pick up of hydrogen in our gas fired units. • Full proportioning controls means we connect more than you will ever need, but use only what it takes to maintain temperature!
