We would take the 20-amp advice: a 13-amp continuous load on a 15-amp circuit leaves nothing spare, and the wiring table in Jen-Ken's older owner's manual is more optimistic than their current page.

Their current glass price list lists the two as separate rows with separate temperatures, and it does the same thing to the 11\/9 with a 4\" door. Some retailers have flattened both to 2,000°F; that is wrong.
