Kiln Lifts Out of the Way for Easy Loading
The walls and top, as a single unit, lift up and out of the way so you can assemble glass pieces inside the kiln. Add stringers and frit to delicate designs, often without using glue. When the kiln shelf is loaded and you are ready to fire, lower the kiln in place.
The kiln is easy to open because of two counter-weight springs mounted under the kiln. The kiln base extends 4” in the back to support the weight of the kiln when in the open position. The base comes with mar-proof rubber feet.
The CS-14S clamshell (single opening) top and kiln walls are one unit. If you need the version with a separate lid, please see the CS-14D (double opening).
Optional Ceramic Fiber Top
The standard CS-14S comes with an insulating firebrick top. You can also upgrade your kiln with the optional deluxe ceramic fiber top, which has the same type of pinless groove as the standard top. The fiber top helps keep the kiln interior even cleaner.
Optional Glass Window and Bead Door
Enhance your glass fusing experience with the optional high temperature 1” x 3” glass window. It simplifies fusing by enabling you to watch every stage, from softening, to tack fuse, to full fuse. Watch the glass to fine-tune a digital program. (Always wear firing safety glasses, available from Paragon, while watching the glass through the window.)
You can even anneal glass beads with your CS-14S. Order the optional double 2” x 5 3/8” bead doors, which mount to the front of the kiln. Use your kiln to safely cool large, ornate beads through the annealing range.
Reliability at the Heart of the Kiln
You will be amazed at the sturdy construction that has made Paragon kilns renowned. The painted steel case covers the sides and top of the kiln. The CS-14S has a two-year warranty. The temperature sensor, called a thermocouple, is sheathed with high-nickel stainless steel for long life. A heavy steel base supports the reversible brick bottom completely. These features are extra assurance that your Paragon kiln is built to last. No extra stand is needed.
The reliable CS-14S has dual mechanical relays for long life. The digital controller sends a signal to the relays to turn on the heating elements. The two relays in the CS-14S last longer than the single relay of competitive kilns because of the reduced amperage going through each relay. In addition, you can order the optional industrial mercury relay for your CS-14S.
Convenient Features
For your convenience, flip the switch on the front panel to turn off power to the controller when the kiln is not in use. The large, comfortable wooden handle stays cool.
The CS-14S is painted with a durable high temperature, water-based finish. We chose water-base paint because of the low emissions during spraying. This creates a safer working environment for our employees and cuts down on pollution.

I have so far only conducted test firings with the new kiln, and it has performed flawlessly. Slumping of uniform test strips showed that there were no meaningful hot or cold spots in the work area. Great construction quality!

I had asked for a recommendation on a kiln for pieces that were 12" x 12" max in size. This kiln was suggested. After firing pieces 10"x10" and 12"x12" to date I have mixed results. 12"x12" is definitely too large of a piece to fire in this kiln. The heating seems to be too inconsistent for the larger size. It works fine for small piece though. Will most likely get a different kiln. Would not recommend for larger pieces.
love it I do not feel comfortable using anything hi tech or computer driven
but learned programing now it is like riding a bike you guys at kiln frog are a dream come true I thought my electric bill would be off the charts ( use my kiln every day ) oil is very manageable and has not changed my life style in the least . Only thing wish for is a peep hole to watch progress. I also know that you have my back with your tech support which I have used ease my concerns .
