A kiln system includes a kiln chamber defining a chamber interior space, a furnace capable of providing heated air, one or more air moving devices capable of circulating air in the chamber interior space along a recirculating flow path, and a plenum positioned in the kiln chamber and generally separating the chamber interior space into an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion of the chamber interior space that is positioned above the plenum, and the lower portion of the chamber interior space is positioned below the plenum and is capable of receiving the charge of lumber for drying;. The plenum defines a plenum cavity that is in communication with and capable of receiving the heated air from the furnace. The kiln system further includes one or more upright passageways. Each upright passageway is mounted to the plenum and in communication with the plenum cavity so that the upright passagevvay is capable of receiving heated air from the plenum cavity. Each upright passal;eway extends into the upper portion of the chamber interior space and includes at least one outlet positioned proximate the recirculating flow path in the upper portion of the chamber interior space. As a result, each upright passageway is capable of providing heated air from the plenum to the recirculating flow path in the upper portion of the chamber interior space via its outlet.
