Finishing Installation
Attach the reminder tag to your kiln on the switch box where it will always be seen before
firing. Plug the EnviroVent
into a standard 115V outlet. Important: Always fire with
the EnviroVent
motor in the ON position. If you have reason to fire with the
EnviroVent
OFF, plug the holes in the kiln floor to prevent damage to the motor that
would void the warranty.
Testing the EnviroVent
Test your new vent system by closing the lid and all the peepholes. Place a lighted match
directly over and level with one of the lid holes. Turn on the EnviroVent. The flame from
the match should be pulled into the kiln as a result of the draft. If you are unsure of the
effect of the draft, observe the action of the flame away from the hole and then move it over
the hole. If the flame is not pulled into the kiln, the kiln is not venting properly. See the
Section 5 on Troubleshooting. Repeat this test regularly to ensure continuing accurate
operation.
