Recommendations for Television Installation
Note: The model depicted in the images is a representation of a Mendota Hearth fireplace. These recommendations apply to all
Mendota Hearth Fireplaces.
When planning to install a television or other heat sensitive product above your fireplace, there are some points to consider.
Many television manufacturers specify in their installation instructions that the television must not be installed near or above a
heat source. The decision to install a television near or above a Mendota fireplace rests solely on the consumer. It is the
consumers responsibility to satisfy television specifications and ensure the television will not exceed maximum operation
temperatures. Mendota Hearth will not be held liable for any adverse effects on a television or other products located near to a
Mendota Hearth fireplace.
The drawings below show recommendations that may be used as a guide for those consumers that decide to locate a television
above a Mendota Hearth fireplace. These recommendations have been found to reduce the heat impact to a television when
installed above a Mendota Hearth fireplace.
Recommendation 1: Add a mantel
Add a mantel above the fireplace. The mantel shall be at least 2 inches deeper than the depth of the television, and at least as wide
as the television. The mantel shall be mounted so that its top surface is a minimum of 18 inches above the top air gap of the
fireplace.
Attention: If the mantel is constructed of combustible materials, make certain that the entire mantel meets the clearances to
combustible mantel requirements.
