the purpose of a vent is to close up your kiln, put kaowool in the
the spy ports and get the lid tight.
then all the junk goes up the pipe.
it is not fool proof, some gases leak into the room, but a really
great imporvment.
\i leave the room when the kiln gets hot. (i overnight fire that little bisque
kiln.)
anyway, i have a new/old electric kiln next to my gas kiln, and don't
worry about venting.
