Fuel

The kind of fuel that is used in a chiminea is important as it influences how much smoke the appliance emits and can have a big impact on its use.

Kiln dried wood is an excellent option, since it releases low levels of smoke and burns extremely efficiently. It is more efficient over fossil fuels like charcoal, which produce huge amounts of smoke.

Add newspaper and small twigs when starting an open flame to make an adequate draft. Place pavers or sand that are fire-safe under the chiminea since it can become very hot. This is especially true when adding more coals. Do not place any flammable objects close to the chiminea, or in close proximity to it after it has been lit. Sparks and embers could rapidly spread, causing fire hazards.

A chiminea should be placed on a solid outdoor, fire-safe, outdoor surface such as brick, concrete, or stone patios.

After the first few fires in a new chiminea, you must allow it to "cure". This is a process in which you gradually increase the heat for approximately an hour and then let it go out naturally. This allows the clay to adjust to the higher temperatures and stops it from cracking or breaking.

Use a grate inside the chiminea to limit the size of the flame and prevent ash buildup. Pea gravel, rock sand or chiminea fire rock are great options for this purpose. To ensure that the clay is not damaged, build a fire smaller than the chiminea's capacity.

A chiminea should be covered when not in use. This protects it from water-related damage. Rain or snow will cause rusting to metal chimineas and it's not uncommon for clay to crack when exposed water. The majority of dealers offer covers for your chiminea. This is a wise investment.
