CLEARANCES
Television Considerations
Installing a television above a fireplace has become increasingly
popular; however, the area above any fireplace gets hot and most
TV manufacturers recommend against placing their products
near a heat source.
If you install a television above this fireplace, Empire Comfort
Systems accepts no responsibility for damage or injuries. Follow
the television manufacturer’s installation instructions, including
any recommendations regarding proximity to heat sources.
If you have a TV above your fireplace, turn off the fireplace and
let it cool completely before servicing or touching any buttons on
the TV.
