It is also important to store your chiminea properly to avoid damage from extreme temperatures and moisture.

One of the primary reasons for cracks in a chiminea is poor handling. Handle a chiminea with care, as it is a large piece fine china. Avoid dropping it, touching anything that is likely to ignite or fire it when it is hot.

Using water to extinguish fires is another frequent cause of cracks in chimineas. Clay is extremely sensitive to sudden temperature fluctuations and pouring water on a chiminea causes stress fractures and thermal shock.

After three or four small fires, you are able to begin making larger-sized fires with confidence. It is essential to keep an watch on the size of the fire to ensure it does not get out of hand.
