Teachers - Even though most vents do not draw a lot of energy, most teachers do not feel comfortable letting the fan motor run all weekend or even overnight. The EnviroLink will shut the vent off when the program is complete or when the kiln reaches a specifc temperature. Since it works with ConeFire Mode, it is very easy to program.
• Potters - Crystal Glazes and Cone 6 Glazes can be very sensitive to cooling rates. Artists can now use the Ramp/Hold programming mode to control whether the kiln vent is on for each segment of the firing program.
• Glass Artist - Artists who are glass want to cool quick and hold steady. With the EnviroLink they can program the vent to come on when crash cooling and then turn off during annealing when they are trying to hold the temperature steady.
