you will need to run a new wire to a new plug to do it rite if you have a breaker box outside you can set it up there come out of it with the 220 to wherever you want it to go and put your plug on the end of it and thats it. and make shure that you come off of both legs for you 220 and not the same leg call me if you need help

Jesse .....You might look at the diagram on the Kiln...and see if it says 110/220.....some are convertible...some are not....depends on the size of the heating element.....too big of an element....and they won't heat enough when converted to 110....how often are you going to use this? May be better off to just plug it in where your Dryer is...whenever you use it....that's what I do with my Crackerbox Welder.....
Justin Snyder:
I would suggest that you pay an electrician. I would hate to see you electricute yourself over a couple of $. It is usually possible to change it to 110 since most 220 appliances have two heating elements, or an element and a control module, each runs on a different 110 leg of the 220. However, if the kiln wasn't designed for it you risk burning up the kiln and the house.
Pappy:
