We have a small profesional solar kiln operation not far from me. He uses clear visquine and says the inside temp. stays 75 degrees warmer than outside during daylight hours. A fan is used to move air through the kiln area and remove excess moisture. A neighbor has a kiln that is heated with a small portable heater but he also has an inlet and outlet for air and a fan. The fan is a necessity. Personally, I have just stacked and stickered in my big garage but still use a fan to blow air through the wood.
