Location
If you're looking for a way to warm up your patio or garden, a huge clay chiminea can be a good alternative. These chimney-like pieces of fire art are wide and long, making them easy to set a great flame and protect the flames from winds. They come with an elongated chimney that funnels smoke to the air, meaning they don't produce excessive heat and are more secure than regular outdoor chiminea fireplaces. It is possible to cook food on them, but it's better to use a separate pot and grate for this.
There's also a wide selection of styles and types for these heaters. You can choose between terracotta and clay, but they are also available in cast iron or steel. Cast iron can handle higher temperatures, making it an ideal option for cooking in them. Another advantage of a metal chiminea is that it's easier to move around than clay or terracotta chimineas.
The best place to position your chimney is in an open, clear area where the chimney will be capable of venting properly. It is also important to make sure that there aren't any trees or fire-prone objects in the vicinity. You can also place the chiminea directly on a brick patio or stone patio. But, you must ensure that it doesn't rest directly on any pavers, as this could cause cracks in the pavers.
You'll have to fill the chiminea's bottom with sand to prevent it from getting too hot when it's burning and also to keep any kindling or paper from falling in and burning. It is essential to keep the chiminea in good condition by filling it with sand and ashes, and you should also clean out the chimney once a week to prevent ash build-up. If you're not planning to use your chiminea, be sure that you cover it with a weatherproof covering and keep it in a secure place.
If you own a large clay chiminea you can consider putting it on a higher base to keep the chimney from getting too close to your home or other structures in your yard. It's recommended to keep it 10 to 20 feet from your home, since it can get very hot when you use it and sparks could fly out of the chimney.
Size
The size of the chiminea that you pick will depend on the place you intend to put it. If you have a large space in which to put the clay chiminea, it might be beneficial to select a larger one that will easily accommodate a number of people and provide ample pools of warmth for them to enjoy.
Alternatively, if you have a smaller space in which to locate the clay chimineas, it might be better to go for a smaller model that can comfortably accommodate only a handful of people and offer enough warmth for them all to sit around comfortably.
Clay chimineas are traditionally made of terracotta clay, although they are also available in cast iron and other materials. Clay models are more susceptible to damage than metal counterparts. However taking care of them and maintaining them will ensure they last longer. Both types of chimineas should always be placed on stable and level surfaces to avoid them from falling over and causing damage to decking or other furniture on the outside.
It is crucial to set your clay chiminea up on a base of sand or a non-flammable materials, as this will shield your deck and patio flooring from scorches and burns.

It also helps reduce the stress on the clay material the first few times you use your chiminea.
It will also be easier to add or remove firewood if needed and you can also use it to balance your grill when cooking outside. It is essential to let your chiminea cool naturally and slowly after you are done with it. If you attempt to accelerate the cooling process it may cause heat stress and crack or break the ceramic.
