FAQs

What type of wood should I use?

It is recommended to use dry, seasoned hardwood for the best burning experience. Avoid using treated lumber or wet wood, as this can create excessive smoke and creosote buildup.

How often should I clean the chiminea?

Clean the exterior with a damp cloth as needed. Ash and debris from the firebox should be removed after the chiminea has cooled completely. Annual maintenance with a protective sealant is recommended for rust prevention.

Can I use this chiminea on a wooden deck?

No, this chiminea must be placed on a stable, level, and non-combustible surface such as concrete, brick, or gravel. Using it on a wooden deck can be a fire hazard.

What is the warranty period?

Please refer to your purchase documentation or the manufacturer's website for specific warranty information, as this can vary by retailer and region.

How large is the log store?

The dimensions of the log store are designed to hold a reasonable amount of firewood for typical evening use. Specific dimensions can be found in the product's technical specifications or manual.

Is assembly required?

Yes, some assembly is typically required. Please consult the included instruction manual for detailed assembly steps.

Can I leave it outside in the rain?

While designed for outdoor use, prolonged exposure to harsh weather can lead to rust on the steel. Covering the chiminea or storing it in a dry place during the off-season is recommended for longevity.

Troubleshooting

Chiminea is smoking excessively.

Ensure adequate ventilation by not overcrowding the fire. Check that the wood is dry and seasoned. Avoid using damp or green wood. Make sure the chiminea is not placed too close to walls or structures that impede airflow.

Rust spots appearing on the surface.

Lightly sand the rust spots with fine-grit sandpaper and apply a high-temperature resistant metal paint or sealant suitable for outdoor use. For ongoing protection, consider regular application of sealant, especially before winter storage.

Difficulty starting or maintaining a fire.

Use dry, seasoned hardwood for best results. Start with small kindling and gradually add larger pieces. Ensure there is sufficient airflow into the firebox.

Log store is difficult to access.

Ensure logs are cut to an appropriate size to fit the storage compartment. Avoid overfilling the log store, which can make access difficult.
