Is there a life expectancy difference between aluminum and cast iron? And what is the warranty?

Both cast iron and cast aluminum chimineas will last for many years with some regular maintenance: keep ashes cleaned out and paint occasionally with high temperature paint. The Blue Rooster chimineas have a one year warranty on manufacturer's defects. If you have any more questions feel free to contact us. Thank you.The Blue Rooster Co.

Does this chiminea come with a cooking grate?

There is a 9 and 1/8 inch cooking grate that can be placed between the main stove and the chimney. It comes with it, and you only put it in if you want to cook, otherwise, it stays out. I have never used it, so it sits on the ground under the chiminea.

Is the deck protector recommended and/or useful for a Trex composite deck system? Would you recommend this product for use on a composite deck?

Our deck protectors are designed as protection from a stray ember or ash from a wood burning fireplace. The fire resistant pad is not fireproof. It will protect your deck area from embers or a burning log until it can be placed back in the fire. It will not protect your deck from direct heat or intense direct fire. I hope this helps answer your question. Thank you. The Blue Rooster Co.

Why they paint the outside? How stable the paint under high heat?

The chimineas are painted with high temperature paint to look nice and help them last longer with proper usage and maintenance. High temperature paint is for use on fireplaces and chimineas. Thank you. The Blue Rooster Company
