TV applications were tested with the minimum enclosure dimensions and the maximum recess permissible.
This data is provided in good faith and is not a guarantee for every application and television. Care and
consideration should be taken when planning these installations to ensure the temperatures around the TV
meet all manufacturer's recommended operating temperatures. Increasing the height of the mantel and/or
TV above the fireplace opening, the protrusion of mantel and the volume of the enclosure all have the effect
of reducing the temperature above the fireplace. It is always recommended to use the optional heat
management kit when considering mounting a television above the fireplace.

note:
•
Electronic appliance temperatures must be validated at the
time of installation as air flow characteristics within the room
can vary and maximum acceptable operating temperatures can
vary from appliance to appliance. Electronic appliances cannot
be used where the electronic appliance temperature exceeds the
manufacturer's maximum allowable operating temperatures (see
electronic appliance manufacturer's specifications). Operating
a television above the manufacturer's maximum allowable
operating temperature will result in premature failure.
•
Mantel height and depth must conform to mantel clearance
requirements specified in this manual, see "minimum clearance to
combustible mantel" section in installation manual.
•
Electronic appliance temperatures may be further reduced
by increasing the horizontal distance between the front of the
electronic appliance and the front edge of the mantel or by
increasing dimension "A". However, increasing the gap between
the top of the mantel and the bottom of the electronic appliance
beyond the maximum recommended figure, typically results in
higher temperatures. Minimum clearance between the mantel
and bottom of the electronic appliance should be maintained to
allow air circulation below and behind the electronic appliance.
