Handling with care is among the most common causes cracks in Chiminea. Chimineas are a large piece of fine china, and must be handled with care.

The use of water to put out a fire is another common cause of cracks in Chimineas. Clay is very sensitive to sudden temperature fluctuations, and pouring water on the chiminea can cause thermal shock and stress fractures.
