Clay chimineas should be protected from the elements. Chimineas made of clay can be damaged or brittle when exposed to the rain and cold.

Chimineas that are regularly used should be filled with 50mm of sand or Gardeco Lava stones (see Accessories above). This will reduce the contact between chimineas's direct flames. It also helps the clay material to be used to generate heat in a staggered manner.

Size

Chimeneas are the perfect size for a variety of gardens and patios. The clay structure radiates warmth and creates a warm atmosphere. They can also be used as wood stoves. They burn aromatic hardwoods to produce stunning natural aromas.

Smaller designs that taper into the shape of a chimney are perfect for smaller areas. Some are available in several attractive colors that provide an attractive touch. They can be used to cook food over an open flame, a feature that adds an extra satisfaction and pleasure to a backyard gathering.

Chimineas made of clay have a wider surface area than metal chimineas. This makes them safer to touch even when they are hot. This will also stop the clay from cracking due to too much heat. It is recommended to place 50mm of sand (or Gardeco lava stone) on the bottom of the bowl to prevent the clay from coming into contact with the most hot part and to create a uniform heat pattern.

Function

Clay chimineas are made from fired clay that has been kiln-fired and coated with a waterproof glaze that ensures durability. They are produced and fired in small local factories that aid the economy and communities in Mexico. Kiln-fired at high temperatures, they are used to remove any organic or water-based content in the clay in its raw form. This decreases the chance of the clay cracking due to thermal shock.

A large portion of our chimineas are designed with an area for cooking that allows you to grill food on the fire. This is a great feature for those who like to cook and entertain at the same time and can add a touch of fun and flavor to the meals you have with your family and friends.

When you are first starting to use your chiminea it is best to start with an initial small fire before you slowly increase the size of the fire. It is important to start small as the clay acts like a radiator. If you start large the temperature will increase quickly. This can cause cracks in the clay because it is not accustomed to the heat.

There are a number of different designs available in our large clay chiminea range including the Wrapped With Iron.

We also have the Honeycomb design clay chiminea which offers a more modern looking fire pit with a cross pattern on the stack and bowl. The model is lighter colour and softer tones. It also comes with a removable stand and chimney cover.

Maintenance

Chimineas are made from clay, which is prone to cracking. Although this is usually an issue of minor importance but it can affect the appearance and functionality of the chiminea. To prevent this from happening, it's important to maintain your chiminea properly. This includes cleaning it regularly and applying a sealant that is protective. It is also essential to store your chiminea properly to avoid damage from the cold and humidity.

One of the main reasons for cracks in a chiminea is careless handling. Chimineas are a huge piece of china, and it should be handled with care. Avoid dropping it or touching anything that could burn it, or firing it when it's hot. One dealer I spoke to said he did not warrant his chimineas against breakage, since they were frequently broken by careless handling before they were fired!

The use of water to put out fires is another frequent reason for cracks in Chimineas. Clay is extremely sensitive to sudden temperature changes, and pouring water on the chiminea can cause stress fractures and thermal shock. The best way to extinguish a chiminea is to let the fire die naturally or to make use of sand to put it out in a safe manner.

It is important to buy an chiminea with an element of base. It will be simpler to clean, and will look better in your garden. Chimineas that do not have stands can be difficult to move, especially when the weather is wet or windy. You can also buy a poker that will help you move the logs and a brush for getting rid of soot and ash.

You must "cure" (break in) your chiminea terracotta slowly as you first buy it. Start with small fires, and gradually increase the size of your logs. As time passes, the clay will become more resistant to cracks and will become more seasoned. A seasoned chiminea is also more efficient at holding a larger, well-controlled fire. After three or four small flames, it is possible to be capable of starting a large fire with confidence. It is important to keep an eye on the size of the fire to ensure it doesn't become out of control.
