Maintenance
Chimineas are made of clay, which is prone to cracking. Although this is usually not a major issue however, it can impact the appearance and functionality of the chiminea. It is essential to keep the chiminea clean in order to prevent this. Cleaning it regularly and sealing it with sealant is a part of this. It is also essential to store your chiminea properly to prevent damage from cold temperatures and moisture.
One of the main causes for cracks in a chiminea can be due to careless handling. Handle a chiminea with care since it is a substantial piece of fine china. Avoid dropping it or letting it touch anything that can burn or fire it when it is hot. A dealer once told me he couldn't even warrant his chimineas against breakage since most of them were broken due to careless handling before they were fired once!
Another common cause of cracks on chimineas can be caused by using water to smother the fire. Clay is extremely sensitive to sudden temperature changes, and pouring water on a chiminea causes thermal shock and stress fractures. The best way to extinguish a chiminea is to allow the fire die naturally or to use sand to extinguish it without risk.
It is essential to purchase a chiminea that comes with a base. It is easier to clean and enhance the look of your backyard. Chimineas that do not have stands can be difficult to move, especially when it's rainy or windy. It is recommended to purchase an instrument to help move the logs and a brush to remove soot and ash.
When you first purchase your chiminea it needs to be "cured" (broken in) slowly. Start with small fires and increase the size of the logs gradually. In this period the clay will become more resistant to cracks and more seasoned.
