In terms of heat, a chiminea isn't as effective as a fire pit. It emits heat only in one direction. Fire pits on the other hand are open to all sides and can distribute heat evenly across an entire area.

Design

Chimineas, unlike the open design of fire pits, provide a hooded cover that offers 360deg protection to your fire. A hood reduces the amount of smoke and ash that is produced, while protecting furniture from damage from heat. Certain chimineas feature a traditional clay pot-belly design, while others are contemporary and can be a perfect match to any style.

The wide base of a chiminea turns into a narrow chimney allowing it to draw fresh air into it and create more efficient fires that produce more Btu's. As a result, your wood-burning chiminea grill emits less smoke than a typical outdoor fireplace, yet creating the warm ambiance you love to enjoy during the warm summer evenings and crisp fall nights.

Most chimineas, however, are constructed of terracotta or clay. Other materials may also be used. It is essential to keep your chiminea in a stable position to avoid damage from the chiminea's warping or overheating. Avoid placing a chiminea metal beneath an overhang or on a deck that may be covered by snow or rain. The sudden shift in temperature can damage terracotta, clay and even damage metal.

Chimineas are a great alternative for small chiminea outdoor spaces that may not have enough space to accommodate a large outdoor fireplace. Their small size makes them able to be positioned comfortably on porches, patios and in courtyards for gardens and they can be placed near lounge chairs or Adirondack chairs to create cozy reading areas.

Find the perfect chiminea to fit your outdoor chiminea living space whether you're looking for an easy terracotta style or a more elaborate hand-painted design with Spanish details. Both are easy-to-use and can bring warmth to your backyard. Be sure to check the local laws, as certain areas are not permitted to install outdoor fireplaces. If you're not permitted to use a wood-burning fireplace, consider a gas-powered model that uses liquid propane or natural gas to give you the same warmth and ease.

Portability

The design of a chiminea varies by manufacturer, but many opt for a traditional look with a wide base that tapers to an extended chimney. Modern chimineas, like this Kelly Clarkson Home model, tend to be straighter and more compact. This chiminea made of wood weighs less than the other models we've reviewed and doesn't require the help of a group to move it to a different location on your patio. It has a handle at the top and small handles along the sides to help you lift it off the ground.

We recommend using only seasoned wood, which has been soaked in water for several weeks. This will reduce the amount smoke that is released when it is burned. The rounded base of this chiminea covered by a 360-degree screened, maximizes the heat and lets people relax on the deck without getting smoked out. The tall chimney directs smoke upwards, reducing the chance of smoke blowing on your neighbors or causing other issues with your outdoor space.

Both fire pits and chimineas demand that you place gravel or sand in the base to prevent the unit from burning up or emitting excessive amounts of smoke. However, a Chiminea requires more thorough cleanup of the interior chamber, too. When you're ready to start the fire, be sure to scrub out any remaining sand gravel, and then add some kindling and logs prior to lighting the fire.

Because a chiminea is designed to create a focal point on your patio, it's essential to consider the style and color of your landscape when selecting a model. Some models, like this one by Rediflame, are available in different finishes, such as green, brown, and black, to blend seamlessly into any outdoor decor. This model has a powder coating that improves weather resistance and durability. This chiminea is equipped with grilling grates and a spark catcher for the chimney and a rain cap to shield it from the elements when it is not in use.

Fuel

Unlike fire pits that emit heat throughout the entire area, chimineas channel it through their chimney. You can use them to cook and create a warm and cozy environment that is perfect for family gatherings. These are durable and will last for many years. They can be made from steel or clay, and finished with gorgeous features that will suit your taste.

The efficiency of the fuel used by the chiminea is a further advantage over the fire pit. They burn charcoal or wood and produce less smoke than fossil fuels. However, they release pollutants into the air, which can affect human health and contribute to climate change. It is essential to burn only seasoned charcoal or wood in order to mitigate this.

Chimineas can be extremely inflammable, particularly if they are made from clay or other combustible materials. To prevent cracking or damage they should be kept away from humid and wet weather. If you are planning to leave a chiminea for the garden outdoors in the winter, it is recommended to cover it or keep it in a shed or garage. It's also recommended to treat the metal with a rust-proofing chemical prior to placing it in storage or moving it.

Before you use a chiminea, make sure to clear a 3-by-4-foot space in your backyard and then lay down pavers or any other material that is fireproof. This will make your patio hearth easy to clean and safe so you can enjoy your chiminea during all seasons.

Chimineas and fire pits are a great addition to outdoor living spaces. They can be used to entertain and sit and cooking. Both offer a unique aesthetic and each comes with distinct advantages and disadvantages.

Although chimineas look more attractive, they are a danger to children and pets. They can be hot to be touched and their backs may be exposed to flames. They should also be anchored on a level surface, and have adequate ventilation to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. Depending on the design, they might also emit sparks or embers that can cause injury.
