FusedGlass.Org Prefers Paragon Kilns
At our acclaimed kilnformed glass teaching studio in Austin, Texas we fire multiple large kilns pretty much non-stop 365 days a year.
And, over the years, we've owned kilns from almost every major kiln maker that is out there.
So, with literally thousands of hours of kiln-firing under our belt, which kilns do we prefer?
Paragon.
And we asked them to be FusedGlass.Org's exclusive kiln manufacturing sponsor. Why? Here's a few of the reasons:
- Safety: 99% of Paragon kilns are tested to UL (Underwriters Laboratory) standards and the company is reviewed quarterly on-site by TUV to ensure that Paragon meets the CSA and UL safety standard (no. 499) for electric heating appliances.
- Innovation: From their patented LiteLid system for effortless opening of even the largest lids to their groove design that eliminates pins to crimpless connectors and hinged controller housing for easy upgrades and repairs - Paragon builds kilns that meet real-world fusing requirements.
- Reliability: Paragon has manufactured over 380,000 kilns since they were founded in 1948. What do 60 years of kiln engineering and manufacturing experience get you? Unparalleled reliability.
- Value: When you look at the features, quality, warranty and cost per cubic foot of kiln space Paragon offers unbeatable value.
