Hi Susan,


If Kiln fume odors can unpleasantly effect classroom air, or
if kiln odors are there at all, your Kiln
exhaust is not properly vented, and it is not a healthy
situation...it may be a dangerous situation in fact.

Best get that matter dealt with...

Dangerous!

Please find out more about this from those on the List who
are familiar with exhaust methods and so on.

Best wishes,


Phil

Whoa...

I did not say it WOULD happen -- I asked if it would happen. I'm sure it will
vent out. Thanks.
