Explosion Proof

So Brit-iferd (imagine a man with a smoking jacket, monocle and British accent ) and I were having a deeply intellectual conversation about my vent over my kiln. Just so you know Brit-iferd is my Mr. B, my hubster, my -insert code name used by prolific bloggers who refer to their husbands-. I had noticed a sticker on the vent that says "not explosion proof" which sparked (pardon the pun) a hilarious conversation about how things can read differently to others than originally intended.

I read "not explosion proof" to mean that at some point I may be working away in my kiln room and... kaploowey! My vent will randomly explode. The end.

Brit-iferd read it to mean that if I cause an explosion in my building or kiln room through misuse of art supplies that the vent will not survive the blast. That I will be going through all my junk in the kiln room crying over burnt scraps of wood and melted Christmas elves only to discover that while my kiln has survived the blast my vent is beyond repair. Oh the horror!

So, I've been tempted to call the manufacturer and sort out the meaning of their label. It's a little vague and really if it is as I read it... I'd like to know how not to have a vent explosion. Is there a way to prevent it? Then again with all the law suits in the world against businesses for silly things I wonder if they just slap a label like that on anything.

I'm thinking of putting that label on all my art. You decide if I mean it will explode or if there is an explosion that it was not in-fact "explosion proof".
