Common questions
Can this kiln really reach cone 10, or will it struggle at higher temperatures?Yes, the HF 1818 is specifically engineered for cone 10 firing with 3-inch firebrick insulation that allows it to reach 2350°F faster and more efficiently than standard kilns. The High Fire series is built for porcelain and high-fire stoneware work, not adapted from lower-temp designs.
What size breaker and wire gauge do I need for installation?This kiln draws 23 amps at 240V, so you'll need a dedicated 30-amp breaker with 10-gauge wire. We recommend having a licensed electrician install the circuit to ensure it meets local codes and Evenheat's specifications for warranty coverage.
Is the 18×18 chamber too small for production work?It depends on your workflow. Many porcelain artists prefer this size because it lets them fire test pieces or small batches immediately without waiting to fill a larger kiln. It's excellent for one-of-a-kind work, teaching demonstrations, and studios where you'd rather fire frequently than wait for enough production pieces.
Should I add the Quiet Drive Solid State Relay?Absolutely. The Quiet Drive provides significantly tighter temperature control than mechanical relays, which is critical for consistent cone 10 results with porcelain and high-fire glazes. It also extends element life and never needs replacement, paying for itself over time in reduced maintenance and better firing outcomes.
Does buying from Peach State Pottery affect my warranty?No. We are an authorized Evenheat dealer. Your two-year warranty is fully valid and you have direct access to Evenheat’s support team. Buying from an unauthorized seller can void your warranty entirely.
