can i use this inside my house oven to check the temperature

the only way that would work is if you drilled a hole in the oven. The probe needs to be inside and the dial or face needs to be outside of the heat source.

Only if you want to drill a hole in the side of your oven. This is specifically made for a smoker/bbq. You can get an oven thermometer that is made for regular ovens at almost any hardware store for $5 to $10 dollars (every so often you even can find them at a grocery store).

No. I don't think the plastic lens or cover will handle the heat inside the oven. That is unless you want to drill a hole in the door.

Not that i know of. You might take a cooking thermometer that u trust and stick it inside to see if its runnin hot or cool. The more i use it the better i can guage how hot its registering. Hope thT helps.

It's for the oven temperature. You can buy a different probe to use with it for checking food/meat temperatures, though.

these devices detect ambient air and non reflective surface temperatures only. it should tell you the temperature of the interior oven surfaces. hope this helps.

Yes, put one probe for measuring the oven temperature near mid-height in oven and the other into the food. Mine showed my oven was was actually 35°F hotter than what was set on the dial and explained why cookies got burned so easily. Adjusted dial, no more burned cookies.

I don't think so, but I have not tried it. It is to measure surface temperature. If you point it at the interior wall, it will measure that temperature, but not air temperature or working temperature.

Frankly, I wouldn't. I've used this one for many years in the oven and recommend it for that purpose, but it's not 100% accurate and not as sensitive as an alcohol-based glass thermometer for example. For something like cheese-making where a few degrees make a difference, I'd stick with a thermometer with a narrower, but more precise, range.

It can only read surface temperatures. For meat you would need a probe type thermometer.

Unfortunately, a window would interfere with the heating elements and cause uneven browning of the pizza . . .thus defeating the purpose. The temperature stays accurate and the timer exceptional. You shouldn't need to check it before it's ready

I think that this would work very well. I have used this to measure temps on computer processors and heat buildup on electrical components. should do what you want.

As others have said, you can probably use the metal-corded probe to measure oven temp if it's not touching metal. It doesn't do it concurrently as my old Polder did, however.

If you go to the ThermoWorks website you can buy a probe specially-made for doing air temps. It includes a little bracket to help you attach it to a grill. It's less than $20. I'm thinking of getting one to test the temp of my oven. Hope that helps, Joe

I wish I could be more help but I have not ever used the thermometer that way. I've only used it to test temperature when meat is taken out of the oven. For that purpose it works great.

I put an oven thermometer inside. It takes 3-5 minutes to reach temperature.

Yes! It will measure the surface of the onside of the oven as it measures what it's "touching." I found that the inner surface of the oven is on the dot with the temperature given off by the actual oven thermometer.

Yes, you can. I have not yet tested it myself, but the instructions on the box say that it may be used in an oven or under the broiler up to 500°F.

You're really asking me to be clairvoyant here . . . but the is a simple way for you to check the internal temperature of your unit. Place an oven proof thermometer on the lower rack position, turn it so you can read it through the bowl, and see if it reads within 5 or 10 degrees of your dial temperature setting. If it is reading too low, then you probably have a malfunctioning unit or you house current is inadequate at the plug. That's the best I can do from afar . . . .
