Heating element

[butler]

I just bought a 30 gal water jacket canner... It has no heating element... Is there a good place to buy one of these and what size should I use for that size canner?

I think it was a 4500 watt that I put in mine with a relay and a $10 eBay thermostat

Mine is a round tank... Anyone know a good place to buy a good element

I got mine at Lowes.

Was it short stem... Does it have a thermostat
