Unlike metal chimineas, clay chimineas are much safer to touch when they are hot, as the temperature is spread out over a wider surface. This helps to prevent the inner clay from absorbing too much heat and fracturing.

One of the main reasons for cracks in a chiminea is careless handling. Chimineas are a large piece of fine china, and it should be handled with care. Avoid dropping it, touching anything that can burn it or firing it while it's hot. One dealer told me he did not guarantee his chimineas from breaking because they are often damaged by careless handling even before they were fired up!

Another reason for cracks on chimineas can be caused by using water to extinguish the fire. Clay is sensitive to sudden temperature changes, and pouring hot water onto the chiminea made of clay can cause stress cracks and thermal shock. The best way to put out a chiminea is to let the fire die naturally, or to employ sand to extinguish it in a safe manner.

It is crucial to buy a chiminea that comes with a base. It will be simpler to clean and make it look more attractive in your yard.

After three or four small fires, you can start making full-size fires with confidence. It is crucial to keep an an eye on the size of the fire to ensure it does not get out of control.
