Health & Safety Considerations
All service and maintenance work on the kiln must be carried out by a competent person. We advise against working in the kiln room while the kiln is firing. Ceramic materials produce fumes in the firing, and the body of the kiln will heat up to approximately 150°C generating heat in the room, it is therefore important that plenty of fresh air is moving through the room. We recommend installing an extract fan. The kiln room must be clear of all flammable materials, nothing must be placed on top of the kiln, including the kiln controller.
Positioning the kiln
Please ask for advice about positioning your new kiln, there are important considerations such as: Ensuring that the floor is strong enough to carry the weight of the kiln. The kiln should be not less than 250mm from the nearest wall and be a minimum of 750mm from the ceiling. Allow 500mm space behind the kiln and a gap on one side sufficient to provide easy access to the rear of the kiln for servicing. The wall isolator, (power switch) must be easily accessible. If required, we can supply a kiln cage to safely and securely enclose the kiln to prevent access by unauthorised people.
Delivery
Please discuss delivery options before ordering, in some circumstances we may arrange delivery by carrier or we can deliver and install including electrical connection to existing supply. It is important to ensure that you have sufficient room to access the final location. In some cases, kilns may be able to be stripped down and assembled on site to fit through narrow doorways etc. We can send you a kiln delivery questionnaire which asks for information on the route from vehicle to final position. We will be able to quote for delivery when we have all the relevant details.
