I saw them advertised so I checked into them. I'm not entirely sure of the principle that they work or even if they do but the drying times that they advertise are great-right up there with vac kilns but not as fast. I have called them 2 times and left voice messages and have never received a return phone call. They must not want to sell them too  badly.

Download the manual that shows how to build the "chamber". That should tell you what to expect from the kiln.

Hi
I own a small lumber sales and sawmill business in Florida. I have been discussing the purchase of one of their kilns in the 3000 bf range from Greenstone. Would love to hear any dealings with this company.I would like to talk with  someone close to one of their wood chambers.  I have been talking to a representative from Greenstone and am not completely sold on the idea.
Thanks for a reply.
Bob

Goggled the parent company Greenstone holdings Inc.out of  New Jersey, 5th hit is from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, dated 2-28-10.

Don't think I would buy stock or a kiln from them.

I was talking with a Greenstone sales rep and it seems that there is 2 more units out there. One in Pennsylvania and one in Maine. The sales rep has not offered a number for me to call  the kiln that is suppose to be  in Maine. The other unit is in Pennsylvania and is sitting idle. I have listened to the process and it is thinking outside the box. Any one out there had dealings with this company?
