Chimney in the masonry and not in front of it

Ours is incl. plaster and wallpaper 42x42cm. Show the floor plan where it is supposed to stand.

How big is your chimney including the cleaning hatch? It's really difficult to somehow fit it in so that it doesn't bother in the attic...

Does an external stainless steel chimney fit? Rhenish greetings

I would never save on a wall under any circumstances. In the room where the fireplace is visible, it wouldn't be a problem, but the other room, where it would be flush with the wall, one could eventually forget that the chimney runs along there and accidentally want to screw something into the wall. Yes, and there are settlement cracks, as says.

So I've never heard that the chimney is practically embedded into the wall!?

I have a similar problem....
my chimney is already (picture from the ground floor hallway) almost touching the wall, there is still about 0.5-1.0 cm of air between.

As far as I know, there is usually 2 cm of insulation material between the load-bearing wall and the chimney so that the chimney can "move."
Isn't this a recipe for cracks in the plaster or even in the wall??

I spoke to the builder about it, he said that mortar is applied in between, then the joint is cut out and filled with acrylic, and nothing should happen??

Can someone confirm this?

I have a similar problem....
my chimney is already standing (picture from the ground floor hallway) almost against the wall, there is still about 0.5-1.0 cm of space in between.

I know it so that between the load-bearing wall and the chimney there are still 2 cm of insulation material so that the chimney can "work."
otherwise cracks in the plaster or even in the wall are pre-programmed, right??

I spoke to the developer about it, who said that mortar is applied in between, then the joint is cut out and sealed with acrylic, and nothing should happen??

Can someone confirm this?

Does an exterior chimney made of stainless steel fit?

that's just a later emergency solution. no construction company wanted to do something like that at all. so around here in the north it's really frowned upon.
we also have our chimney standing in the room now. it's not really great, but what can you do. if anything, I would rather place the chimney so that, for example, the flue is in the guest bathroom or in the utility room.
