not a bot Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 Hi, I am looking for a nice tidy solution to protect our new kiln from getting dusty when it is not in use. The kiln is stored in and will be operated in our garage, and will only be used occasionally. The cover would only be placed upon the kiln when it was cool to touch and unplugged from the electrical outlet. We live in the desert so condensation is barely a concern. Typical relativity humidity stats are posted as "to low to measure". Having said that, I would still prefer a fabric that breathes rather than any sort of waterproof material. We are using some basic sheets as covering now, but would prefer something that form fits if it is readily available for purchase. I am hoping someone here may have seen something offered and can point us in the right direction. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilestrick Posted November 21, 2022 Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 I have never seen such a thing. I'm wondering if there's a grill cover or AC cover that would work. Magnolia Mud Research and Rae Reich 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not a bot Posted November 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2022 Thanks for the suggestion. Swamp coolers are common here and have similar dimensions. I'll have a look at what's available. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeU Posted November 23, 2022 Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 (edited) Would a tarp over the kiln and secured (circled around it) with bungee cords work? Update-this is what I did at first with my kiln. I took the inner carton that it was shipped with, removed the bottom, and cut down one corner so I could wrap it around and also remove easily. I covered the carton lid with a synthetic tablecloth. It got worn over time but still served me well for several years. The water stains on the box are just from drifting/melting NH snow (the kiln is on a back porch with imperfect sealing). The light snow melt never pooled, it got wicked up by the cardboard. I use a tarp w/bungees now. Edited November 24, 2022 by LeeU Bill Kielb, Magnolia Mud Research and Rae Reich 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
