indoor chiminea and direct flames. It also assists the material to adapt to the staggered heat.
Size
Chimeneas are the ideal size for many gardens and patios. The clay structure emits warmth and creates a warm atmosphere. They also serve as wood burning stoves, consuming a variety of aromatic hardwoods that give beautiful natural scents.
For smaller spaces, designs that taper to a chimney are the ideal. Some come with attractive colors that add a decorative element. They can be used to cook food on an open flame, adding an extra level of fun to a backyard party.

Chimineas made of clay have a larger surface area than metal chimineas. This makes them safer to touch even when they are hot.

Clay chimineas are constructed from fired clay that has been kiln-fired and coated with a waterproof glaze that ensures long-lasting durability. They are manufactured and fired in small, local factories to aid in the development of the communities and economy of 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 reduces the chance of cracking in the clay as a result of thermal shock.
A lot of our larger models include the option of cooking areas where you can cook food over the fire. This is a fantastic feature for those that like to cook and entertain at the same time and will add a bit of fun and flavor to the meals you have with your family and friends.
When you first begin to use your chiminea it is recommended to start with an initial small fire before you slowly increase the size of the fire. It is crucial to start small as the clay acts like a radiator. If you begin with a larger size, the temperature will quickly rise. This can cause cracks in the clay since it is not accustomed to the temperature.

Maintenance
Chimineas, made of clay, are prone to cracking. While this is typically a minor problem, it can affect the appearance and performance of the chiminea. It is essential to keep the chiminea clean in order to prevent this. This means cleaning it regularly and using a protective sealant. It is important to store your chiminea properly to prevent damage from the elements and cold temperatures.
Unsafe handling is among the most frequent causes cracks in Chiminea. Handle a chiminea with care, as it is a large piece fine china. Avoid dropping it or touching anything that could burn it or firing it when it's hot. One dealer told me he did not warrant his chimineas from breaking because they were often broken due to careless handling, even after they were fired up!
Using water to extinguish a fire is another common cause of cracks in Chimineas. Clay is extremely sensitive to sudden temperature fluctuations and the act of pouring water over a chiminea causes thermal shock and stress fractures. The best way to safely put out the flame in a chiminea is to let it die naturally, or use sand.
If you are purchasing a new Chiminea, you need to select one that has an accompanying stand. It will be easier to clean and will look better in your garden. Chimineas without stands can be difficult to move, especially in the event of windy or rainy. You can also purchase an instrument that helps you move the logs and a brush for removing soot and ash.
You must "cure" (break in) your chiminea slowly after you purchase it for the first time. Begin with small fires, and gradually increase the size of your logs. As you progress, the clay will become more mature and less susceptible to cracks. A seasoned chiminea will also be more efficient in holding a larger, more controlled fire. After three or four small flames, you will be in a position to start a large fire with confidence. It is important to keep in mind the size of the fire to ensure it doesn't become out of control.
