ITC-100 in a HT oven?

[Justin King]

Has anyone tried using ITC-100 or another similar coating in an electric HT oven? It seems like most factory units come with bare firebrick. I'm wondering if it would increase the efficiency enough to make it worthwhile.

I've never seen it but that makes a lot of sense. I would think the heat up times would definately increase.

It would probably make the oven come to temp faster, but I wonder if it would increase the amplitude of temperature swings as the coil cycled? I guess the PID would eventually compensate for it over time....
