Material around fireplace, distance?

[Sir Duke]

Hello again everyone.
Weird, I have heard from the mason that there is minerit with the same dimensions as plasterboard, e.g. 12.5 mm. And it should be paintable. But I can't find anything like that. Only ugly pre-patterned tiles. Does anyone know what it is called?

If instead of using Minerit (brand name) as a search term you use fibercement (material), I at least get results for "fibercement 12 mm" from a number of suppliers.

Aha, yep, I see some now.
Are they paintable?
And can they be mounted with glue?

 

[jonaserik]

Are paintable and can be glued with, for example, PL400 or others

Sounds good.
Is it like this one I should get then?

Yep, that's how it is, just check out the prices around, they can vary quite a bit.

Thanks
I see that it has beveled edges, but I need a smooth surface that is seamless with the adjacent plasterboard. Is it okay to fill in, does it adhere well to the surface?

I have minerit around 45mm a fireplace corner. The mason plastered it thinly with a gray gypsum, turned out very well.

Hello!
I'm planning to build in a display cabinet in a dead space in the apartment. On one side, I have the stove that works; can I build in the display cabinet, or does that wall need to be insulated?

I was thinking of building it in like a picture I found.

 

[Sir Duke]

There must not be anything flammable directly against it. Use a fireproof board in between. Also consider how fine glassware and drinks react to the heat (in the example pictures, there are wine bottles in the cabinet).

With the reservation that I may have misunderstood how the display cabinet is to be positioned in relation to the stove.

 

[Zsolt Csomortani]

Thanks for your response,

the display cabinet will not be in direct contact with the stove's wall; the cabinet will stand centered in the opening, meaning there will be a 12cm air gap between the cabinet and the display. The hole will be covered with a board so the gap is not visible. But as I understand it, it's best to use fire-resistant gypsum to be safe. I can take a new picture tomorrow.

Thanks for the response,

the display cabinet will not be in direct contact with the fireplace wall, the cabinet will stand in the center of the opening, meaning there will be a 12cm air gap between the cabinet and the vitrinet. The hole will be covered with a panel so the gap won't be visible. But as I understand it, it's best to use fire-resistant gypsum to be safe. I can take a new picture tomorrow

I still don't know if I understand correctly, but I interpret the rules as there should be at least 50 cm of air next to the fireplace, 25 cm if you use fireproof panel/sheet.

You cannot cover the gap with a filler piece; it must be free air around the fireplace.

 

[guggen]

Everything depends on the type of stove and the person who approves it. Some stoves require a 20cm distance to combustible materials, others require 50cm+, and it also varies depending on whether it's the back or the sides.
I would consult the chimney sweep or the master who inspects your stove.

 

[Zsolt Csomortani]

Hm.. damn how hard it is, then I interpret it as I can't build in the display cabinet but can only have it standing in the hole with an air gap between the cabinet and the wall.

How much would the cabinet protrude into the room next to the stove? Or does the cabinet fit entirely inside the niche?
