Beginners with access to 240V operation will appreciate the GTS 18 with its larger diameter and ample power. It takes up less floor space than other 240V kilns yet performs with the same confidence and strength.
The GTS 18 features Evenheat's exclusive Set-Pro Control, Swing View Adjustable Viewing, Awesome Lid Handle and Full Stainless Jackets.
The GTS 18 is designed to fire glass and is quite capable of all glass related firing up to 1800°F (982°C), such as painting, fusing, slumping, casting, etc. It should be noted that the GTS 18 is designed to fire a single layer or shelf. The nature of the GTS 18 is to provide heat from the lid elements directly to the shelf containing the glass. Attempting to fire glass below the top shelf is likely to lead to frustration and disappointment.
While the GTS 18 is designed exclusively for glass work it is possible to fire a variety of materials including metal clays, low fire ceramic, china paints and metals processing provided the firing temperatures do not exceed 1800°F.
The Set-Pro features custom programming and firing adjustments that allow you to add time, temperature or skip directly to the anneal. NOW Evenheat has improved on their popular Set-Pro control systems. The Set-Pro will now include Begin and End of Process Alarms. The new alarms will allow glass artists to know when their glass has reached the temperatures for fusing, slumping, casting and more. It will also alarm the artists to when the kiln in heading into the annealing process. These are critical points in glass firing and the new features in the Set-Pro aim to provide the glass artists with more control over their firings. Evenheat is dedicated to offering controls designed for real world use and these new alarms reflect that commitment.
