Chamber Location
The kiln chamber for the Modular Kiln system should be sited on level and firm ground
taking into consideration access for handling equipment and loading/unloading the
timber.
A concrete pad is not necessary if an insulated container
1
is used. However, wooden
track support bearers, approximately 7” x 9” (18cm x 23cm), or a metal frame are required
to secure the kiln external tracks needed for loading and unloading the lumber.
See Figure 3-1.
Gravel can be added between the wooden bearers for ease of working around the loads.
1.A room with good wall insulation also can be used.
