Bailey Gas Kilns are the by-product of logic and innovative thinking. BAILEY GAS KILNS... "OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE!"

Bailey Studio Deluxe and PRO gas kilns are very similar in their innovative construction features.  It's just a matter of scale.

Bailey Kilns are massive, built from heavy tubular and structural steel. Take a closer look and you are immediately impressed by a multitude of outstanding innovative features.

What is common to all Bailey kilns is high energy efficiency.  Our forced draft burner system and efficient circulation patterns insure that you will have very low firing costs, even when compared to expensive high-velocity burner systems.

Bailey Gas Kilns are the by-product of logic and innovative thinking.  
Our unique down-draft design represents years of careful research. Every aspect of fuel efficiency, firing consistency and durability has been incorporated into each kiln. We can say quite confidently that there is no other kiln design that can provide such unparalleled performance.

Uniform Heat Distribution
The Bailey down-draft gives a unique 360 degree heat flow pattern. This flow pattern maximizes the absorption of the heat energy and dramatically reduces firing costs. You get uniform heat top to bottom, front to back, and side to side. Unlike venturi style downdraft kilns with burners coming through the floor, our forced air downdraft kilns offer ingenious internal adjustments to fine tune the path of the heat flow. By adjusting the placement and size of the target brick, we can optimize firing results for traditional pottery forms or sculpture. Just watch those cone packs drop evenly!

Uniform Atmospheres
The 360 degree heat travel also gives excellent control of the atmosphere. Whether you fire oxidation or reduction, atmosphere control is extremely simple. We take the mystery out of firing and make it easy to get perfectly consistent firing results. You can look forward to beautiful glazes in every part of your kiln.

Studio Deluxe front loading kilns range in sizes from 8 to 31 cubic feet of stacking space. The Production front loading kilns range from 28 to 40 cubic feet of stacking space. Both Deluxe and Production kilns utilize the same Double Skin Ventilated Frame construction with stainless chimneys and vary only in their respective insulation profiles.

The Deluxe models have 4½” of insulating firebrick in the walls, floor and arch. This insulating profile is ideal for the small to medium size range of kiln because it offers an economical firing, and a cooling cycle that allows a reasonable turn around time. There would be no benefit to add insulation to this size range for typical stoneware firings.

The Production models have 6” of insulating firebrick in the walls and 6 ¾” in the arch. This insulating profile is ideal for medium to large kilns. The increase in insulation thickness is more in ratio to the thermal mass that is being fired. This is a more practical kiln for firing sculpture where the operator intends to fire longer schedules than the typical stoneware firings.

HOW TO PURCHASE FRONT LOADING GAS KILNS
NOTICE: Because we feel that purchasing a kiln and options is an important decision for your business or school and we can offer much insight and advice to the process, we do not allow our kilns to be ordered on-line. We would prefer that you call our expert staff and be assured the best engineered system for your specific application. There are many options available to customize your purchase.
