Clay Chiminea large (click now)

Clay chimineas are a great way to enjoy an outdoor fire. They are a little more fragile than iron chimineas, and require special attention to ensure they last a long time.

Material

Clay chimineas have been used for about four hundred years as a place to gather around for food and conversation and to warm the home. They are generally constructed from terracotta clay although they are also available in a variety of materials, such as cast iron and steel.

Cast iron is more durable than terracotta and it is less prone to being damaged by abrupt temperature fluctuations. However, it is susceptible to cracks or break easily if not shielded from rain and snow. Terracotta can be more fragile, but it is a beautiful material that gives the chiminea a classic Mexican appearance.

It is essential to cure your new clay Chiminea before using it for the very first time. This will prevent it from cracking due to the sudden shift in the temperature of the fire. This is done by placing approximately two to three inches of river sand in the bottom of the chiminea. Then, begin with small pieces of wood and gradually increase the size of the wood that you use. After a few small flames, your clay should be ready to use.

Chimineas made of clay can be sealed to prevent moisture from damaging the Chimineas over time. This is a great idea for any outdoor fire pit, but it is especially essential for clay chimineas because the clay absorbs water, and when exposed to water too often, it can break.

Clay chimineas are less prone to break than metal chimineas. However, they still need to be handled with care in order to prevent moisture damage. Chimineas made of clay should be covered when not in use, and they should never be stored in a closed space because repeated exposure to moisture may cause the clay to break or crack.

Since they weigh more than other types of chimineas, clay chimineas require an extremely solid base specifically designed to accommodate outdoor fire pits. This can be accomplished by installing a patio hearth on a deck or patio made of wood. It provides a safe zone free of fire. The hearth for a patio can be built with bricks or pavers and should have at least a three-by-four-foot area. If you don't want to build a hearth to your patio, you can simply place the chiminea in a flat area of garden soil. This is not recommended, as it may break or crack in the course of time.

It is always a good idea to get a cover for them, as this will protect them from rain damage that could cause them to weaken and crack over time. It is also a good idea to put at least 50mm of sand, or Gardeco lava stones (see the accessories above) on the bottom of the chimenea, to shield it from direct heat and to prevent the hot part of the fire from directly touching the clay which can cause it to crack.

A clay cap is also an excellent idea since it can prevent water seepage that could result in them weakening over time and crack. Chimeneas that are capped with clay might be a bit more expensive, but they will last longer.
