Innovative Insulation
Our kilns are constructed with a groundbreaking Hybrid Brick insulation material, akin to HEBEL block in appearance and texture, which significantly reduces power consumption while ensuring the internal lining remains robust and durable.
Enhanced Safety
Fan-forced case ventilation keeps the outer surface temperature below 75°C, making it safe to touch, even during operation. The all-aluminium frame and casing are rust-free, guaranteeing longevity and a pristine look for years.
Optimal Performance
Equipped with Kanthal A1 Elements and a heavy-duty k26 brick floor, our kilns promise exceptional performance. The design includes a spyhole and top vent, complete with k26 machined brick bungs for precise temperature control.
Maintenance and Security
The door features adjustable stops and a latch to maintain an effective seal over time, with the seal easily replaceable during element changes to ensure integrity. A two-stage door latch facilitates cooling, and the latch can be padlocked for extra security.
Advanced Safety Features
An integrated Omron Door Safety Switch cuts power to the elements when the door is open without interrupting your firing program, offering peace of mind and enhanced safety during use.

Useful answers
When positioning a Kiln what are the minimum clearances I should allow?
You should ensure the Kiln has at least 200mm clearance on all sides and a minimum 600mm clearance above the Kiln. NEVER place anything on top of the Kiln. Things are often forgotten and this is a fire risk.
What type of ventilation if any should I have for my kiln room?
Adequate ventilations around the kilns is essential, make sure that the kiln is situated in an area where there is at least some natural ventilation to the outside of the building (A window or doorway). If not, you may have to consider either an exhaust fan or an attached Kiln ventilation system (Ventmaster from Woodrow). Fumes from kilns can be unpleasant depending upon what you want to fire. Some concentrated fumes can be deadly, please carefully consider what you intend to fire and think of the consequences. The Kiln will also still radiate heat into the room which can become an issue if it is trapped.
Can I store equipment or materials on or around the Kiln?
In a word NO. NEVER place anything on top of the Kiln. Things are often forgotten and can lead to fires. Also make sure that there are no combustible materials stored under, around or behind the kiln. ie: Timber, canvas, paper or chemicals etc.
What Electrical considerations should I take into account when installing a Kiln?
For optimal performance and safety, it's crucial to dedicate a specific circuit for your kiln that matches its ampere requirement. This dedicated circuit prevents the risk of overloading and disconnecting other devices in case of complications. Our kilns require a stable supply of at least 230 volts when operational for optimal performance and to avoid premature wear to the heating elements. We highly recommend consulting a qualified electrician to verify the voltage and install the necessary circuitry. Additionally, installation of a new circuit for your kiln must include a Residual Current Device (RCD) to protect against electrical faults. Opt for a high-quality RCD since lower-cost alternatives may frequently activate unnecessarily due to their sensitivity to the moisture emissions from the kiln, leading to interruptions in the firing process. For any guidance or if specific advice is needed, please don't hesitate to reach out to us or have your electrician contact us directly.
Can a Woodrow Kiln be placed outside?
The short answer is maybe, but you must ensure that it can't get wet from rain from that storm that happens once in a while with horizontal rain.
The Kiln is an electrical device and is not IP rated so you must ensure that no water or moisture can get on the electrics.
As the casing and frame is made from aluminum the kiln won't have any rust issues.
Can I put my Kiln in a typical garden shed?
Yes, you can use an typical garden shed but you need to ensure the following:
- The shed meets the minimum clearance requirements of 200mm on all sides and 600mm above. eg for the MK145 you'd need a shed with min dimensions of 2400x1200x2500mm (WxDxH)
- The shed has at least two windows that can be left open to ensure adequate cross ventilation.
- The shed is completely painted or made from colour bond both sides including fittings (Kiln fumes are very caustic so all zinc or gal treated metal will rust rather quickly)
- Don't keep anything flammable in that shed. (That includes the petrol can for the lawn mower!)
