Hi Everyone, I fire an electric kiln to cone 6 in my upstairs spare bedroom. The room is about 12 by 14 feet and the only thing in it is the kiln and some glazes and a couple of shelves to store bisqued pots and a table. But in the closet I have stored some clothes in plastic bags. The closet is about 10 or 11 feet from the kiln. My husband is worred that the plastic bags might combust due to the heat in the room. It usually doesn't get hotter than 85 or 90 degrees F. if I remember to open a window. Also the kiln is vented. I've been firing under these conditions for about 3 years. So far all is well. Does anyone know about the safety of this kiln room? Thanks, Sandi
