23rd March 2021 | Servicing Kilns
Regular kiln servicing helps identify worn components, maintain reliable operation and reduce the risk of unexpected downtime. How often a kiln should be serviced depends on its age, application and frequency of use, particularly in education and production environments.
How often should I service my Kiln?
A good practice would be to book in a yearly service as a minimum. If you use your kiln often or on an industrial level then we recommend having more regular services. Keeping on top of maintenance will keep the kiln in the best possible working order. If you leave it too long then there will ultimately be more down time and expense if your kiln needs to be booked in for repair or you need to factor in a replacement.
Can I service my own kiln?
Regular cleaning and basic care are important, but they do not replace professional servicing. A qualified engineer can check the kiln’s electrical components, safety systems and general condition to help identify wear or faults before they become more serious. Regular servicing is therefore recommended alongside routine cleaning and maintenance.
