Safety Advice

Ensure you have read and fully understood the instruction manual and safety advice before using this product.

This product is intended for outdoor use only and must never be used indoors, in enclosed spaces, tents, vehicles, or poorly ventilated areas due to the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Always place the chimenea on a stable, level, and non-combustible surface such as stone, concrete, or paving slabs to prevent tipping or fire hazards.

Do not position the chimenea on wooden decking or other flammable surfaces unless adequate fireproof protection is in place.

Maintain a minimum safe clearance of at least 2 metres from buildings, fences, furniture, overhangs, and vegetation to reduce fire risk.

Never use the chimenea under covered structures, awnings, parasols, or low-hanging branches.

The chimenea becomes extremely hot during use and remains hot for a prolonged period after extinguishing; do not touch any metal surfaces until completely cooled.

Always use heat-resistant gloves when handling the chimenea, opening doors, or adjusting components during or after use.

Clearly mark or communicate that the chimenea is hot when in use to prevent accidental contact.

Keep children, pets, and vulnerable individuals at a safe distance of at least 1.5 metres during operation and cooling.

This product is not a toy and must not be used by children or individuals lacking the knowledge or physical capability to operate it safely.

Only use suitable fuels such as untreated wood or appropriate solid fuels; do not burn household waste, plastics, treated wood, or flammable liquids.

Never use petrol, alcohol, or other accelerants to light or relight the fire, as this may cause explosions or uncontrolled flames.

Do not overfill the fire chamber; maintain a moderate fuel load to prevent excessive heat and structural damage.

Always use the provided spark guard to reduce the risk of sparks or embers escaping and causing injury or fire.

Do not operate the chimenea in windy conditions, as this increases the risk of flying embers and instability.

Never leave the chimenea unattended while lit or still hot.

Avoid placing the chimenea in high-traffic areas where it may be knocked or come into contact with people.

Ensure adequate airflow around the chimenea at all times to support safe combustion and reduce smoke build-up.

Position the chimenea so that smoke is directed away from seating areas to minimise inhalation.

Avoid prolonged exposure to smoke, as it may cause respiratory irritation.

Do not attempt to move or reposition the chimenea while it is in use or still hot.

Assemble the chimenea strictly according to the manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring all parts are securely fitted before use.

Use appropriate tools and personal protective equipment during assembly to prevent injury.

Ensure the flue/chimney is correctly installed to allow proper smoke ventilation.

Keep a suitable fire extinguishing method nearby at all times, such as water, sand, or a fire extinguisher.

In the event of uncontrolled fire, move away to a safe distance and use appropriate fire control measures if safe to do so.

Allow all ashes and debris to cool completely for at least 24 hours before handling or disposal.

Use metal tools and heat-resistant gloves when removing ash to avoid burns.

Dispose of ashes in a non-combustible container and ensure they are fully extinguished before disposal.

Do not store or use flammable materials near the chimenea.

Be aware that cast iron components are heavy; use proper lifting techniques and seek assistance when moving to avoid injury.

Do not modify the product or use unauthorised replacement parts, as this may compromise safety and void liability.

This product is intended for domestic outdoor heating purposes only and must not be used for commercial or industrial applications unless explicitly specified.

Dispose of the product in accordance with local regulations for metal waste and recycling at end of life.

Clean out all ash and debris after each use once the chimenea has completely cooled (allow at least 24 hours)
Use heat-resistant gloves and appropriate tools when removing ash to prevent burns
Dispose of ash in a non-combustible container and ensure it is fully extinguished
Regularly inspect the chimenea for cracks, damage, or structural weaknesses before and after use
Check that all components, including the flue and spark guard, remain securely fitted and undamaged
Remove soot build-up from internal and external surfaces to maintain proper airflow and performance
Wipe down exterior surfaces regularly to remove moisture, dirt, and residue that may cause corrosion
Regularly check for rust or corrosion and address promptly to maintain safe operation
Store the chimenea in a dry, covered area when not in use to protect it from rain and environmental damage
Consider using a weatherproof cover when the chimenea is not in use for extended periods
Ensure ventilation openings and the flue remain clear of blockages at all times
Avoid leaving standing water inside the chimenea, as this can accelerate rusting and material degradation
Periodically check for loose fittings or components and tighten as necessary
