Once assembled, the kiln performs exactly like a one-piece model, maintaining full structural integrity and insulation.
Cress Clean Air Vent System
With all ceramic and glass kilns, we highly recommend that they be vented to the outside. But why?
First and foremost - is your safety! When heating various materials in your kiln, many have byproducts that burn off and are released into the air. These byproducts are toxic and you don't want that mixing with the air you're breathing.
The Cress Clean-Air Vent System effectively draws these fumes from multiple zones within your kiln, improving air quality by venting harmful gases safely outside through standard ducting. This specialized ventilation process promotes better airflow, enhancing temperature uniformity and ensuring that each piece in your kiln is heated evenly.
By using the Cress Clean-Air Vent System, you'll improve both the safety and longevity of your kiln, significantly reducing wear on kiln elements and interior components. Customers often find that their venting system more than pays for itself through reduced maintenance and longer kiln life.
Furniture Kit
Furniture Kits are necessary accessories for any kiln owner as firing directly on the kiln floor is not only bad for the kiln, but your pieces as well. In addition to this, they're also useful! A furniture kit will allow you to stack multiple shelves on top of one another in order to maximize the useable space when firing smaller pieces.
If you have one that will fit this kiln size already, then you're in luck! But if not, you'll want to ensure you add this to your order as well.
Furniture Kit includes:
- Eight (8) 26" Half Shelves
- Eight (8) 2" Posts
- Eight (8) 4" Posts
- Eight (8) 6" Posts
- Eight (8) 8" Posts
- Eight (8) 10" Posts
Kiln furniture can be special ordered separately, but if done so the cost is ~10-20% higher and will incur a separate shipping charge. It's best to include this on your initial order of the kiln.
* Received shelves may contain surface imperfections such as scratches, discoloration or rough edge. These possible imperfections are understood and accepted by the buyer.
