Olympic Kilns have been made in Flowery Branch, Georgia for over 50 years and cover one of the broadest lineups in the industry — from compact 120V HotBox kilns for home studios to large oval and TopHat bell kilns built for production and commercial use. ProKilnSupply is an authorized Olympic dealer offering free freight on most models to the US lower 48, with the full manufacturer warranty on every kiln.
Key Advantages of Olympic Kilns
- Stackable sectional design on the HE/E series lets you start with one section and add capacity later — without buying a new kiln.
- Widest size range of any brand we carry — from the HotBox 6.5"×6.5" desktop kiln all the way to the 37"-wide oval production models.
- TopHat bell kilns with a lid element are built for dual-use studios that need ceramic firing plus glass fusing access from above.
- Made in the USA for over 50 years — parts, support, and replacement elements are readily available long after purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the E and HE stackable series?
The HE series uses 3" firebrick and fires to cone 10 (2350°F). The E series uses thinner brick and is rated to cone 8 (2300°F). For stoneware and porcelain, most potters want the HE. For earthenware and mid-fire work, the E is a solid lower-cost option.
Can Olympic stackable kilns be expanded later?
Yes — the stackable HE/E series is sectional, so you can add a ring section to increase capacity. Contact us to confirm which extensions are compatible with your specific model.
What controller comes standard on Olympic kilns?
Most Olympic kilns ship with the Bartlett KilnStar digital controller. You can upgrade to the Genesis touchscreen controller at checkout for more ramp-hold programs, delay start, preheat, and a built-in cone table.
How long does an Olympic kiln take to ship?
Olympic kilns are made to order in Flowery Branch, Georgia. Standard lead time is 8–12 weeks. Select models are available as Quick Ship Kilns that ship in 1–2 weeks. Contact us to confirm current lead times before ordering.
What electrical setup do Olympic kilns require?
HotBox models run on 120V. Most stackable and oval models require a 240V dedicated circuit. Check the individual product page for voltage, amperage, breaker size, and plug configuration. See our Electrical & Power guide.
