What’s included
Genesis Touchscreen Controller by Bartlett
Advanced digital controller with 7" color touchscreen, pre-loaded cone fire and Rapid Fire programs, custom program storage, delay start, and real-time kiln monitoring with diagnostic capabilities.
Complete Furniture Kit
Full set of kiln shelves and posts sized specifically for the 1414HE chamber, allowing you to start firing immediately without additional shelf purchases.
Solid State Relay (SSR)
Electronic switching system that replaces mechanical contactors, providing silent operation, extended controller lifespan, and more precise temperature control throughout the firing cycle.
Stackable 3-Inch Brick Construction
Premium 3″ thick firebrick walls with interlocking stackable design for superior insulation, energy efficiency, and the ability to add sections for chamber expansion.
Stainless Steel Jacket
Durable outer casing protects the kiln structure, provides professional appearance, and includes a pilot light for operational status visibility.
Balanced Element Design
Heavy-duty coiled heating elements arranged for even heat distribution throughout the firing chamber, rated for cone 10 high-fire applications.
Metal Stand
Sturdy steel stand elevates the kiln to comfortable loading height and provides proper clearance from floor surfaces.
Type K Thermocouple
High-temperature ceramic thermocouple for accurate temperature sensing, protected by ceramic sheath and positioned for optimal chamber readings.

Heavy-duty wheeled base with locking casters allows you to reposition the kiln for cleaning, maintenance, or studio reconfiguration without disassembly.
Power Interrupt Module
Automatic safety device that prevents controller damage from power surges and allows firing to resume properly after brief power outages.
Dual Media Lid
Specialized lid design with reinforced construction and modified element configuration for both ceramics and glass fusing in the same kiln.
Multi-Zone Control Upgrade
Independently controlled heating zones with separate thermocouples for precise top-to-bottom temperature management in specialized firing applications.
Emergency Parts Kit
Pre-packaged collection of critical replacement components including elements, thermocouple, relays, and fuses for quick repairs and minimal downtime.
Type S Thermocouple Upgrade
Premium platinum thermocouple with superior accuracy and longer lifespan than standard Type K, recommended for production studios with frequent cone 10 firings.
Common questions
What electrical work is required for the 1414HE?
The kiln requires a dedicated 40-amp double-pole circuit breaker with 8 AWG copper wire run to a NEMA 6-50R receptacle for 240V operation (or NEMA 15-50R for 208V). You'll need a licensed electrician to install this circuit—most residential panels can accommodate this load, but your electrician should verify your panel capacity and distance from the kiln location to confirm wire sizing. The kiln includes a 9-foot power cord.
Is the furniture kit included in this package sufficient for all my firing needs?
The included furniture kit provides the essential shelves and posts for standard configurations in the 14.5″ chamber. Depending on your work—whether you're firing tall pieces, need more shelf levels for production bisque firings, or want specific stacking arrangements—you may eventually want additional shelves or post heights. Most potters find the included set adequate to start and add pieces as their production patterns develop.
Can this kiln really reach cone 10, or is it primarily for mid-range firing?
The 1414HE is rated and built for true cone 10 firing with proper element spacing, 3-inch brick insulation, and heavy-duty coiled elements designed for high-fire work. The included Genesis controller has cone 10 programs pre-loaded. That said, smaller kilns work harder to reach top temperatures, so expect element life to be shorter with frequent cone 10 firings versus cone 5-6 work. Many potters use this size for cone 6 production and occasional cone 10 firings.
What does the solid state relay do, and why is it included in this package?
The SSR replaces mechanical contactors (electromagnetic switches) with solid-state electronics that control power flow to the elements. This eliminates the clicking sound of traditional relays, reduces wear on the controller, provides smoother power delivery for more even heating, and extends overall system lifespan. It's included in the Freedom Package because it significantly improves the firing experience and protects your controller investment—it's one of the most popular upgrades on standard kilns.
How do I maintain warranty coverage on this kiln?
Register your kiln with Olympic within 30 days of delivery—registration instructions come with the kiln documentation. The warranty covers manufacturing defects for one year from delivery date and is only valid when purchased through authorized dealers like Peach State Pottery. Keep your sales receipt and complete registration promptly. Normal wear items like elements and thermocouples have separate coverage terms detailed in your warranty documentation.
