Constructed to last

Hot shot ovens are specifically designed with the end user in mind. Hot Shot ovens feature a full swing side opening door to allow safe and easy insertion and removal of material as well as a cool-to-touch one-handed handle made from high quality stainless steel for easy opening and closing. 

Hot Shot ovens are constructed with a stainless steel core and a high quality powder coated shell. The high density fiber insulation in a Hot Shot oven is machined to high tolerance specifications so that each piece fits perfectly together to provide a proper seal, ensuring that it will maintain its temperature and work efficiently to prevent loss of heat. Each oven comes with a removable high density floor. This is ideal to assist with project setup or if it needs to be replaced.

Hot shot uses Kanthal A1 heating elements, a type K thermocouple and every oven comes standard with a solid state relay at no additional charge. 

Where can I put my oven/kiln?

With our Cool to Touch Fan Cooling Technology we only require about 3” of space between the oven/kiln and the wall. Do not block any vents and make sure the fan unit has at least 3” of space between it and the wall or other objects. 

Put in a well ventilated area and do not attempt to duct the exhaust of the fan unless the exhaust has a power vent compatible with the cfm of the fan. 

Even though the outside enclosure stays cool to the touch, please make sure any flammable or combustible materials are away from the surroundings of the kiln.
