TELEVISION MOUNTING ABOVE FIREPLACE
The Flare Fireplace frameless design directs the heat from the fireplace into the fireplace chase to be released from the top vent
opening. The design allows for a relatively low temperature on the external wall above the fireplace.
Follow the charts and instruction below for suggested installation of a television above the fireplace.
●
Please note that electric wiring used for the television must be insulated when installed inside the chase above the
fireplace.
●
It is critical that wiring insulation
does not
obstruct the hot air flow from going to the top part of the chase to be
released back to the room.
●
Placing insulation above the fireplace may result in a Fire hazard. Air flow above the fireplace should remain open to
allow heat to be released from the top of the chase.
●
Follow the chart below for clearance and sizing.
●
It is recommended to double wall
the area behind the TV to allow cables and other related material to be installed with
less concern of blocking hot air flow. Use non-combustible material for double wall.
●
All wires MUST be secured and anchored to the frame to prevent any possibility of wires dropping on top of the
Fireplace.
●
TV can be recessed when installed above the Fireplace, be protected by a mantel or flush installed above the fireplace.
●
Wires should be inserted into the recess from the top or sides (In order to avoid proximity to the fireplace vent).
●
To reduce the amount of heat around and below the TV,
increase
the size of the
heat release
above the minimum
required for your fireplace size unit.
*Please note that most television manufactures and manuals will instruct the owner
not to install
television above or near a
fireplace. Mounting a television above the firepla
ce is based on the owner’s decision and responsibility. Flare will not be held
liable for any adverse effects on a TV, artwork or other equipment located near the Flare appliance. It is the customer’s
responsibility to verify that their TV or artwork can withstand the wall temperatures at the installation site.
