Clay chimineas should be protected from the elements. Chimineas made of clay can be damaged or brittle 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 contact between the Chiminea and direct flames. It also helps the material get used to the staggered heat.

Using water to extinguish fires is another frequent cause of cracks in Chimineas.
