Furnaces
The furnace is the appliance in a hot glass studio that holds the molten glass that will be gathered or ladled out to make glass products. That said, there are very few hot glass studios that operate without a furnace. Four types of glass furnaces include the day tank, the freestanding pot furnace, the invested pot furnace, and the continuous melt furnace. Ideally the furnace is large enough to supply 3-4 days worth of glass before refilling or “charging.”
A complete furnace includes a safety package, a combustion package, and a control package. We size our burners so that you have the power you want when you want it, as well as a quiet, idling burner at low fire. Eclipse Combustion’s Thermjet burner is a fantastic performer for this application. A well-tuned Thermjet with modern temperature and gas-air ratio control components can save over 30% of gas costs when compared to older control methods. 32” furnace charging chute included.
