<She'd not yet
installed the wiring/plug (whatever) to use it. It was under water for 24
hours during Hurricane Floyd. Is there a way to test it to see if it still
works without going to the expense of wiring the house, or do you think it's
a total loss? Thanks for any input.>>
I had 3 kilns soaked, flooded, wet to the bone, when our sprinkler system
went off unexpectedly. Assuming that your kiln is not mud soaked, open the
electrical boxes, actively dry everything out completely and let the brick
dry out as well. Check all the connections for tightness and there is no
reason why it shouldn't be just fine. If mud is an issue then you need to
clean the kiln and its components before you do anything else.
