FAQs

Is the Gardeco Cono Large Chimenea suitable for all weather conditions?

While built for outdoor use, metal chimeneas are susceptible to rust. It is recommended to cover or store the chimenea in a dry place when not in use, especially during prolonged periods of rain or in damp environments, to help minimize rust.

How do I assemble the chiminea?

The Gardeco Cono Large Chimenea requires self-assembly. Please consult the detailed instruction manual provided with the product for step-by-step assembly guidance.

What is the best type of fuel to use?

This chiminea is designed for use with standard firewood logs. Ensure the wood is dry and well-seasoned for optimal burning and less smoke.

How hot does the exterior get?

The steel surfaces of the chiminea can become very hot during use and may cause burns if touched. It is recommended to use a chimenea guard when small children or pets are present.

Can the rust be fixed?

Surface rust is a normal occurrence for metal chimeneas and does not affect their use. If the appearance bothers you, the steel can be repainted with a suitable high-temperature metal paint after cleaning the rust.

What are the dimensions of the chiminea?

The product dimensions are 44cm in length, 44cm in width, and it stands at an impressive 125cm in height.

Does it come with a cover?

Yes, the Gardeco Cono Large Chimenea comes supplied with a rain lid to help protect the fire from rain.

Troubleshooting

Chimenea will not light or maintain a flame.

Ensure you are using dry, seasoned firewood. Check that the rain lid is not obstructing airflow and that there are no blockages in the flue. Add smaller kindling to help establish the flame.

Excessive smoke billowing out of the opening.

This can occur if the fire is not established properly or if there is insufficient draft. Ensure logs are arranged to allow airflow. Wait for the fire to burn strongly before adding larger logs. Make sure the chimenea is placed in a well-ventilated area.

Surface rust appears on the chiminea.

This is a natural characteristic of metal chimeneas. Clean the affected area with a damp cloth. For cosmetic improvement, consider repainting with high-temperature metal paint once the surface is dry and rust-free. Rust does not affect the functionality.

Chiminea wobbles or feels unstable.

Ensure the chiminea is placed on a completely flat and stable surface. Check that all self-assembly components are securely tightened according to the instruction manual.
