Large Clay Chimineas For Sale

Clay chimineas should be protected from the elements. Chimineas made of clay can break or soften when exposed to the cold and rain.

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

Size

Chimeneas are the perfect size for many gardens and patios. The clay structure radiates warmth and creates a warm atmosphere. They can also be used as wood stoves. They burn aromatic hardwoods to produce gorgeous natural scents.

For smaller areas design that taper to the chimney are ideal. Some are available in attractive colors to add an aesthetic element. They can be used to cook food on an open flame, an option that brings an added satisfaction and enjoyment to a backyard gathering.

Chimineas are hand-crafted and painted. They may discolor when used or placed outside. If this happens, the paint can be lightly sanded and then repainted using an external paint that is based on emulsions, but this isn't usually required.

Certain clay chimeneas come with a chrome BBQ grill to allow you to cook food over an open flame. Cooking can be done over an open flame while enjoying the ambiance.

In contrast to chimineas made of metal, clay is much safer to touch when they are hot, as the temperature is spread out over a wider area. This also helps prevent the clay inside from taking in too much heat and fracturing. It is recommended to put 50mm of sand (or Gardeco lava stone) on the bottom of the bowl to prevent the clay from coming in contact with the most hot part and to create an even heat pattern.

Chimineas are an eco-friendly alternative to gas grills and can be used for a wide variety of fuel types like propane, natural gas and charcoal. They are particularly efficient when used with aromatic hardwoods such as Apple, Cherry and Yew that burn slowly, releasing a beautiful fragrance and producing less ash. Cover the chimenea when not in use. This will protect it from snow or rain.

Design

A clay chimenea can be a great addition to any patio. The clay is fire-resistant and the design allows for an uncluttered, non-smoking flame. They are constructed with a broad base that tapers into the chimney and stack. The chimney catches the flame and holds it up to ensure it is warm enough for your outdoor space. A lot of chimineas feature decorative details which enhances their design and adds a stunning look to your patio or garden. A chimenea is an excellent option for anyone with a small space and who would like the warmth of a fire in the outdoor.

Chimeneas can also be used to cook. Some models include built-in grills that can be used for barbecuing food over the flame. The adobe material or clay material absorbs heat and radiates outward. You don't have to build a huge fire to heat your food. They are also simpler to maintain than chimineas made from metal because they are more easily cleaned, and they are not as prone to rust.

LB's large clay chimineas come in a wide range of designs and colors. Wrapped with a chiminea outdoor fireplace made of iron, for example.

Function

Chimeneas are a safe option to have a fire outside and will also add ambiance and illumination to your outdoor space. They have been used for centuries to provide warmth and heat but they are now utilized as a beautiful focal point in your garden or patio area. They are simple to use and are a great choice for people who want the benefits of an outdoor fire without the dangers of an open flame.

Clay chimineas are constructed from kiln fired clay with a waterproof glaze that ensures the durability. They are made and fired in small local factories that aid the economy and communities in Mexico. Kiln-fired at high temperatures they are used to eliminate any organic or water content in the clay in its raw form. This decreases the risk of cracking in the clay as a result of thermal shock.

A lot of our larger chimineas are designed with an area for cooking that allows you to grill food over the fire. This is a great option for those who want to cook and entertain simultaneously. It will add a bit of fun and flavor to dinners with your family and friends.

When you are first starting to use your biggest chiminea, it is best to start with an initial small fire before you slowly increase the size of the fire. It is crucial to start small as the clay acts as a radiator. If you begin with a larger size the temperature will rise quickly. The clay may crack if it's not able to absorb the heat.

There are many different designs in our extensive clay chiminea large collection, including the Wrapped With Iron. This design is a classic clay look and feel of Mexican pottery, with an iron accent on the lid and stack. This design comes with a removable stand and chimney cover.

Maintenance

Chimineas are made of clay, which is susceptible to cracking. This is not a major issue, but it could have a negative impact on the appearance and functionality. To avoid this, it is important to maintain your chiminea properly. Cleaning it frequently and sealing it with sealant is an integral part of this. It is also essential to properly store your chiminea to avoid damage due to cold temperatures and moisture.

Careless handling is one of the main causes of cracks in a Chiminea. Be careful when handling a chiminea because it is a large piece fine china. Avoid dropping it, touching anything that can cause it to burn or firing it while it's hot. A dealer once told me that the dealer didn't even provide a guarantee for his chimineas against breakage since the majority of them broke because of poor handling before they had been fired up once!

Another reason for cracks in chimineas is the use of water to extinguish the fire. Clay is very sensitive to sudden temperature fluctuations and pouring water on a chiminea causes stress fractures and thermal shock. The most effective way to put out the flame in a chiminea would be to let it die naturally or make use of sand.

It is essential to purchase the chiminea with an base. It will be simpler to clean and it will look better in your garden. Chimineas without stands can be difficult to move, especially if it's rainy or windy. It is recommended to purchase a poker to assist you in manipulate the logs and a brush to remove soot and ash.

You should "cure" (break in) your cast aluminum chiminea slowly when you first purchase it. Start with small fires and increase the size of logs gradually. In this period the clay will become more resistant to cracks and will become more seasoned. A seasoned chiminea is more efficient in holding a larger, more controlled fire. After three or four small fires, it is possible to begin to make larger fires with confidence. It is important to keep an eye on the size of the fire to ensure it doesn't get out of control.
