Melting Science & Efficiency

Melting metal requires significantly more energy than just heating it. Once the metal reaches its melting temperature, it stays at that temperature while absorbing **Latent Heat** to change state from solid to liquid. Wilson Heat furnaces are designed to provide this high-energy density safely.

Pro Tip: For Aluminum and Copper melting, we recommend Silicon Carbide (SiC) heating elements. For Lead and Zinc, Stainless Steel tubular elements are often sufficient.
