Large Clay Chimineas For Sale

Clay chimineas must be protected from the elements. Clay chimineas can be damaged or brittle when exposed to the rain and cold.

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

Size

In contrast to chimineas made of metal, clay is much more safe to touch if they are hot, as the temperature is spread over a wider surface. This also helps to prevent the clay's interior from cracking due to excessive heat. It is recommended to place 50mm of sand (or Gardeco lava stone) on the bottom to stop the clay from coming in contact with the hotter part and to create an even heat pattern.

Chimineas are a green alternative to gas barbecues. They can be used with a variety of fuels such as natural gas, propane, and charcoal. They are especially effective when used with aromatic hardwoods like Apple, Cherry and Yew that burn slowly, releasing the scent of a lovely fragrance and producing less ash. A chimenea should be covered when not in use to shield it from rain and snow because it could be difficult to start a fire if the clay becomes wet.

Design

A clay chimenea is an ideal addition to any patio. The clay chiminea fire pit material is fire-resistant, and the design helps it to burn without smoke or a clean flame.

They are produced and fired in small local factories that help support communities and the economy in Mexico. Kiln-fired at high temperatures they are used to remove any organic or water content in the raw clay. This decreases the chance of cracking the clay due to thermal shock.

A lot of our larger chimineas have cooking areas that allow you to grill food on the fire. This is a great option for those who want to cook and entertain at the same time and will add a bit of enjoyment and flavor to the meals you have with family and friends.

It is best to start with a small fire when you first use your chiminea. Then gradually increase the size. It is crucial to start small as the clay acts as an electric radiator. If you start large the temperature will rise quickly. The clay can crack as it's not exposed to the heat.

Maintenance

Chimineas are constructed from clay, which is susceptible to cracking. This is not a major problem, but it could have a negative impact on the appearance and performance. It is essential to keep the chiminea clean to avoid this. Cleaning it regularly and sealing it with sealant is an integral part of this. It is also important to properly store your chiminea to avoid damage due to extreme temperatures and moisture.

Handling with care is among the main causes of cracks in a Chiminea. Handle a chiminea with care since it is a substantial piece of fine china. Avoid dropping it, touching anything that can cause it to be burned, or firing it when it's hot. A dealer once told me the dealer didn't even provide a guarantee for his chimineas for breakage because they were most likely to break because of careless handling prior to the time they were fired up once!

Another reason for cracks on chimineas is using water to put out the fire. 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 method to end the fire in a chiminea would be to let it die naturally, or make use of sand.

It is crucial to buy the terracotta chiminea with a base. It will be simpler to clean and it will look nicer in your garden. Chimineas without stands are difficult to move, especially in the event of windy or rainy. You can also buy an instrument that helps you move the logs, and a brush for getting rid of soot and ash.

When you first purchase your chiminea it needs to be "cured" (broken in) slowly. Start with small fires, and then gradually increase the size of your logs. In this process the clay will get seasoned and more resistant to cracks. A seasoned modern chiminea will also be more effective at holding a larger, well-controlled fire. After three or four small fires, it is possible to start making full-size fires with confidence. It is crucial to keep an watch on the size of the fire to ensure it does not become out of control.
