A black steel chiminea that warms everyone round it, with a rain hood to keep the weather off.
Clay chimineas look lovely until the first hard frost cracks them. The HEAT La Luz is steel, so it does not have that problem. It throws heat out all round, has a rain hood on the chimney and a heat-resistant coating rated to 800C. At 8.6kg it is also light enough to move when you change your layout.
What Makes a Steel Chiminea Different from Clay?
Clay chimineas can crack in frost and if they heat up too fast. The La Luz is black steel, so it handles cold winters and a quick fire better.
Steel is also lighter. The La Luz weighs 8.6kg, so you can reposition it without a struggle.


How Does the Rain Hood Protect the Fire?
A rain hood sits on top of the chimney. It stops rain dropping straight down the flue into the firebox.
That keeps the inside drier between uses, so the next fire lights more easily.
Why Does Heat Spread All the Way Round?
The La Luz radiates heat all round, not just out of the front opening.
You can arrange chairs in a circle and everyone feels the warmth, not just the person sitting in front.


What Is the Best Way to Clean Out the Ash?
A grid is included to hold the fire. Ash falls below it, which helps the fire draw air and give you a great amount of warmth.
Once everything is cold, lift the grid and scoop out the ash. Doing this after each use stops damp ash sitting in the base.
