Can I buy a manual kiln now, and convert it to an automatic kiln later?
  1. You can, but it would not be cost effective. 
  2. The Jupiter automatic kilns use the same basic kiln sections that are used on manual kiln - only the control box is different.
  3. You can purchase a new control box that the old sections will plug into.
  4. See the Parts List for pricing on the various panels.
  5. Because of the cost of a new panel, we do not recommend doing this. 
  6. We do not make a separate control box to plug our old manual kilns into. We recommend talking to Orton if you are interested in that possibility.
