too much interior height

[Dr.Pizza]

The dome of my 47" pompeii-oven has a interior height of nearly 28". It should be a tuscan but the dome is looking a little bit more than an egg . Also the door is a little bit too big. Opening width 21.25"/height 13.75"
Is heat reflecting enough to make good pizza?

Re: too much interior height

Hi Dennis,

It's probably a little higher than you might have wanted, but I am sure the oven will cook very well. Take you time curing, bringing it up to heat slowly, and once you have it fully heated, it will be fine.

This is a commercial oven, right? I think it will help that it is fired all the time, and practically speaking, the higher dome should provide a cushion that holds heat and makes the oven efficient with wood.

Let us know how it goes.
