Authorized Evenheat dealer · full factory warranty

Brand new and shipped direct from Evenheat, so it carries Evenheat's full factory warranty. If something goes wrong, call us and we handle the claim with the factory for you.

Warranty terms are in the Warranty and support section below.

Returns: request within 15 days, unused

Because kilns are heavy and often built to order, returns are limited, so we'd rather help you pick the right one up front:

  • Ask within 15 days of purchase or 2 days after delivery, whichever comes first. We issue a return authorization (RA).
  • It must be new, unused (beyond the factory test fire) and in its original packaging.
  • A restocking fee of at least 25% applies, up to 50% on custom, 3-phase or made-to-order units. Return freight is on the buyer unless we made an error.
  • Damaged in transit? Note it on the delivery receipt, send us photos and we'll help with the freight claim.

Read the full return policy

Will it work in my space? Power check

Most 240V kilns need their own circuit and the matching outlet, installed by an electrician. Homes are usually 240V; schools and commercial buildings are often 208V, so pick the voltage that matches your panel.

Send us a photo of your breaker panel or outlet and we'll confirm before your kiln is built: 470-264-3563 (call or text).

What’s included
The kiln, assembledIt arrives built and wired, with the elements already seated in the brick. Set it on its stand, plug it in and fire.
8-inch standEvenheat publishes this kiln’s outside height with the 8" stand fitted, so it goes in the crate. It lifts the kiln clear of the floor so air can move underneath.
Digital controller, fittedOne controller, installed in the kiln’s own enclosure at the factory. You pick it when you order — Icon, Icon+, TAP II or RampMaster 3. Only one ships per kiln.
Thermocouple, installedAlready mounted in the chamber and wired to the control. Evenheat fits special limits thermocouples for close temperature reading.
Attached power cord and plugThe cord is fitted at the factory with a moulded plug. This build lands on a NEMA 6-30 outlet — have one in place before the kiln arrives.
Evenheat factory warrantyWorkmanship and materials are covered by Evenheat Kiln Inc. Ask us to confirm the term on this model in writing before you order — we would rather quote it than guess. Kiln furniture is not covered.
Kiln furniture sold separatelyNo Evenheat kiln ships with shelves, posts, brush or kiln wash. Evenheat sells the furniture kit as an accessory — ask us to add one to the same order and it ships with the kiln.
Vent system not includedNo downdraft or room vent is part of the kiln. If you are firing indoors and need to pull fumes out, tell us and we will spec one.
Key features
All-Firebrick ConstructionFirebrick throughout the chamber — lid, walls, and floor — for maximum heat retention, durability, and a slow, even release of heat during anneal.
Quiet Drive Solid State Relay — StandardEvenheat's patented zero-moving-part relay comes standard, firing 60 times per second for the ultra-tight, silent temperature control glass work demands.
Two-Position Lid VentAdjustable venting accelerates cooling and helps release adhesive fumes and moisture during the early stages of a firing.
Relay Access PortBuilt-in access port lets a technician service or replace the relay without removing the full control panel, cutting downtime and service cost.
8-Inch StandThe GTS 18 ships on its own 8-inch stand, raising the kiln to a comfortable loading height right out of the box.
Round Chamber DesignA circular firebrick chamber distributes heat evenly around the full perimeter, which suits round and freeform glass work especially well.

Common questions
What plug does the GTS 18 use?It runs on 240V, 27 amps, 6,480 watts through a NEMA 6-30 plug. Have a licensed electrician confirm you have a dedicated 30-amp circuit before delivery.
Why choose the all-firebrick GTS 18 over a fiber-lid kiln?All-firebrick construction stores and releases heat more gradually, which some glass artists prefer for smoother annealing curves, and it tends to be more physically durable over many years of use, though it heats up somewhat slower than a fiber lid.
Is 2.0 cubic feet enough for regular glass work?For an individual artist doing personal-scale fusing, slumping, and painting projects, yes — it's designed as a true personal kiln. If you're working larger panels or production volume, step up to the GTS Studio line.
At only 80 lbs, is this kiln easy to move?Relative to Evenheat's other kilns, yes — the GTS 18 is one of the lightest models in the lineup, making it more practical for a home studio or a space where you may need to reposition it occasionally.
Does buying from Peach State Pottery affect my warranty?No. We're an authorized Evenheat dealer, so 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.
