Hello
I may get called an idiot now, but if we put that aside and just focus on the factual aspects, maybe we can get some good answers after all
I am renovating a boiler room in the basement of an old house. All the walls are thick natural stone walls, blasted stone, granite. Previously plastered, but most of the plaster is gone now.
The idea is to put up an inner wall inside the natural stone to create straight, smooth inner walls.
The question is what materials you can use for these inner walls. There is a wish to install a "click-floor" with a stone-like pattern. That would probably look really nice. However, these are 8mm MDF and that is somewhat questionable. But what do the regulations say?
What the chimney sweep has to say is probably also very important, but we can only speculate about that, so let's refrain from that here, I think.
The ceiling in the boiler room is in plastered vaults, with steel studs where it is the lowest in the ceiling (the lowest point of the vaults, that is)
Edit: It might be that it's HDF, rather than MDF as I wrote above, but that probably doesn't affect things from the regulation's perspective, I would assume (?)

What kind of heating do you have? Is it heated?
Yep, pellets in a modern pellet boiler.
