Perhaps check with the local building inspector and insurance company of what is required to meet code.

Some low fired glazes have toxic metals in them although most have been eliminated from the market.

We have two electric kilns downstairs and a high firing gas kiln in its own metal shed in the back yard.

Your wife will also need storage space for the glazing materials, molds and greenware drying space. I speak from knowledge here as I once lost all the garage space to just such a project.

She may also need protective eye wear and some pretty heavy duty gloves if she has to pull plugs and see if the cones have gone over.
