They are also more prone to crack if exposed abrupt temperature fluctuations or physical damage.

When making a chiminea made of clay in which the maker rolls long thick worms of clay into a coil-like pot. He then smooths both the inner and outer surfaces before drying. The clay is then fired at high temperatures in a kiln before being then glazed if necessary. The resulting chiminea is prone to changes in temperature and moisture so it is advised to locate a permanent spot for it in the garden and cover it with a chimenea covering when not being used.

Before they can be lit, clay chimineas have to be 'cured.' This is accomplished by putting a layer of river sand in the base, and then adding tiny pieces of wood to make sure you have a small fire. Once the fire has burnt out, the sand must be removed and the chiminea may be lit.

They also come with a tough cover to shield the chiminea fireplaces from damage and a spigot for putting in water.

Certain contemporary clay chimineas have been heavily grubbed to help resist thermal stresses which can cause traditional earthenware pieces of pottery to crack. They are still fragile however, and should be placed on a stone, concrete or tiled base to avoid them from falling over. They can be used to heat wood, charcoal, and other sources of heat, but work best with hardwoods like oak, hickory, or Acai.

When selecting plants for the chiminea's surrounding, remember that they should be heat-tolerant. They also shouldn't touch the chiminea. The ideal arrangement for the plants is to be placed in a way they create an enclosure or backdrop for your chiminea. Evergreens like boxwood or holly add height to the arrangement, while flowers like lavender or roses can be added for colour.

In contrast to a fire pit which is open and requires frequent refueling, a chiminea's chimney vents smoke away from the flames, meaning it's safer to use. Keep flammable materials far away from your chiminea. Avoid direct contact with water with the chiminea once it has been heated. This can cause it crack.

Easy to maintain

The type of chiminea you choose will depend on the look you want to achieve, the types that are available and the purpose you plan to use it for. Clay is biodegradable, and is better for the environment, while Metal chimineas varieties can last longer, but require more maintenance (such as coatings to prevent the rust).

It is crucial that the ceramic chiminea has completely cooled before cleaning it. Be sure to place it placed in a location that sparks and ash don't fall on anything that's which could ignite. If you're not sure what to do consult an expert or the local fire department for safety advice.

Make sure to use a non-flammable cleaning product such as bleach or a mild detergent. Once you've finished, rinse off the chiminea with clean water and allow it to dry completely before reusing it.

It's a great idea add a layer of sand to the base of the chiminea once it's been dried and cleaned. This will help keep the clay in a stable and cool state. This will make it last longer and lower the risk of cracking. The sand can be any kind but the lava rocks are especially effective. The lava stones provide an additional layer of insulation to keep the chiminea cool. This makes it safer to use.

Sanding the chiminea's surface regularly is the best way to avoid rust. You should not soak it in water, as this could cause cracking. Then, you can repaint the chiminea with a rustproof paint, which will shield it from further corrosion.

When not in use, a chiminea should be covered with an insulated chiminea cover that is waterproof. This will allow it to withstand snow and rain and make the chiminea appear more attractive. The cover will also shield it from rust and other damages from direct sunlight. You can purchase a chiminea lid from your local home improvement shop or online.

In contrast to regular fireplaces, Chimineas aren't insulated and provide less control over the flames. Because they don't seal tightly they also can release lots of sparks that are hot. If this is the case, you can use chicken wire or a small-holed fence around the perimeter of your stack to smother sparks. You can also make your chiminea safer by using wood that has been well-seasoned, which will generate fewer sparks than unseasoned wood.
