Kiln backing, flooring

Post by Chip »

Hi all, I am excitedly expecting my first kiln. I am putting it in my basement. It is a Jen-Ken Maxi Fuse and it comes with at 9" kiln stand. Should I put fire bricks under it (between the stand and the floor?) Should I put brick/fire brick behind it (ie: up against the wall?)

Thanks.
