Alto Gas Chiminea

How to use your Chiminea

There’s nothing more relaxing than sitting outside watching warm flames flicker in your chiminea. Whether you choose a wood-burning or gas-powered chiminea it’s important to position your chiminea in a spot that is far from flammable objects, (overhanging branches for example) and if using a wood-burner on decking, it’s advisable to use a fire pad underneath, so that sparks can’t damage your decking.

Gas-Powered

Gas heats up quickly and gives a consistent temperature making it the convenient choice when purchasing a chiminea. All of our chimineas come with a clip on regulator, so the gas to purchase is a 9kg propane bottle with a clip on top. Simply connect safely as per instructions, light and sit back and relax.

• Before use perform a gas leak check.
• Always change over a gas cylinder away from any possible source of ignition in a well ventilated area.
• Do not smoke whilst handling gas cylinders.
• Never store gas cylinders indoors.
• Store away from direct heat in a well ventilated area.
• Always keep the gas cylinder in an upright position on a flat surface.
• Close cylinder valve when Chiminea is not in use and, if available, use a sealing plug to prevent possible leaks.
• Do not subject gas cylinder to excessive heat.
• Do not tamper with any fitting attached to any gas cylinder. Have it taken to the manufacturer or an authorized testing station.
• When the cylinder runs out of gas, have it refilled or swapped at an authorized testing station. They will fill the cylinder to no more than 80% of its capacity. This allows the gas to expand with temperatures.
• Have the cylinder inspected EVERY 10 YEARS at an authorized testing station.
