Size

In contrast to chimineas made of metal, clay chimineas are much more safe to touch if they are hot, as the temperature is spread out over a wider area. This also helps prevent the inner clay from absorbing too much heat and breaking. It is recommended to put 50mm of sand (or Gardeco lava stone) on the bottom to stop the clay from coming into contact with the hottest part and to create an even heat pattern.
Chimineas are an environmentally friendly alternative to gas grills that are suitable for a wide variety of fuel types like natural gas, propane, and charcoal.

Function

They have been used for ages to provide warmth and warmth, but now can be used to create a stunning focal point in your patio or garden area.

Chimineas made of clay can be constructed from kiln-fired or kiln-baked clay and coated with a waterproof coating to ensure long-lasting. They are produced and fired in small local factories that help support the economy and communities in Mexico. Kiln-fired at high temperatures, they are used to eliminate any organic or water-based content in the raw clay. This reduces the chances of the clay cracking due to thermal shock.
A lot of our larger models have the option of cooking areas where you can cook food over the flame. This is a great feature for those that like to cook and entertain simultaneously and can add a touch of enjoyment and flavor to the meals you have with family and friends.
It is best to start with a small flame when you first use your chiminea and then gradually increase the size. It is essential to start small since the clay acts like an electric radiator. If you start large, the temperature will quickly rise. The clay could crack because it's not exposed to the heat.

Maintenance
Chimineas, which are made from clay, are prone to cracking. This is not a major problem, but it could cause a negative impact on the appearance and functionality. It is crucial to keep the chiminea in good condition to avoid this. This means cleaning it regularly and applying a sealant that is protective. It is important to store your chiminea properly to prevent damage from moisture and cold temperatures.
One of the primary reasons for cracks in a chiminea is careless handling. Handle a chiminea with care since it is a substantial piece of fine china. Avoid dropping it or touching anything that could cause it to be burned, or firing it when it's hot. A dealer once told me that he didn't even guarantee his chimineas for breakage because most of them were broken because of careless handling prior to the time they were fired once!
Another common cause of cracks on chimineas can be caused by using water to put out the fire. Clay is very sensitive to sudden temperature fluctuations, and pouring water on a chiminea causes stress fractures and thermal shock. The best way to put out a chiminea is to let the fire die naturally, or to use sand to extinguish it without risk.
It is crucial to buy a chiminea that comes with a base. It will be easier to clean and it will look better in your garden. Chimineas without stands can be hard to move, especially when it is windy or rainy. It is recommended to purchase an instrument to help manipulate the logs and a brush to get rid of soot and ash.
You should "cure" (break in) your chiminea large slowly when you first buy it. Start with small fires, and then increase the size of your logs gradually. As you progress, the clay will become seasoned and more resistant to cracks. A seasoned chiminea is also able to provide a bigger and more controlled fire. After three or four small flames, it is possible to be able to start a full-size fire with confidence. It is essential to keep an in mind the size of the fire to ensure that it doesn't get out of hand.
