The photograph at the top is an L&L kiln after three years in operation at a busy art center. See how clean the interior of the kiln is. Both photographs where taken at the Wallingford Art Center. The bottom is a photograph of a competitor's kiln interior after three years in the SAME art center used under the same conditions as the L&L kiln above. See how the firebrick is breaking up and the elements are falling out of the firebrick groves. This is a TYPICAL - not unusual example of what happens with electric kilns.

1 PROTECT SOFT FIREBRICK: The hard ceramic element holders protect the soft fragile firebrick. Replacing elements repeatedly does not damage the brick. Elements don't sag or fall out of broken grooves. You do not need metal pins to hold elements into broken grooves. Customers often say their L&L kilns look new after 30 years of hard use!

2 SMOOTH HARD SURFACE: Ceramic element holders have a smooth, hard surface which allows the elements to expand and contract freely. No loose brick particles will fall in the kiln and ruin ware. Your elements will last longer because elements do not get easily snagged, bunched-up, and burned-out. It is harder for glaze, clay particles and firebrick to touch and damage elements.

3 TRANSMITS HEAT BETTER: The thin, dense wall of the holders reflects the infrared heat into the kiln. Elements operate at a lower temperature relative to the internal kiln temperature. L&L kilns require less firebrick insulation to be cut out which increases insulating ability, energy efficiency and strength of the kiln.
