FAQs

What kind of wood should I use?

Use dry, seasoned wood for the best results and to minimize smoke.

How do I clean the chimenea?

Allow it to cool completely, then use a dry brush to remove ash and debris. Do not use water or chemicals.

Can I leave the chimenea outside all the time?

Yes, but consider using a cover to protect it from the elements when not in use.

What if the paint discolours?

This is a normal process. The chimenea can be repainted with heat-resistant paint if desired.

What is the purpose of the lid?

The lid helps to control airflow and can be used to extinguish the fire.

Is assembly required?

No, the chimenea comes fully assembled. Simply place it on the stand.

What are the dimensions?

Troubleshooting

Chimenea is not drawing properly.

Ensure the flue is clear of obstructions and the air vents are not blocked.

Paint is discolouring.
