   Can You mount a TV over a fireplace?

   • For the best viewing quality, a television should be viewed at eye level. It is generally not safe to mount a TV over a wood-burning fireplace. That's due to both the high heat and smoke that wood fires create. Any heat and smoke not vented up the chimney will cascade over the front of the mantel and around your TV, damaging the electronics.

Most manufacturers indicate a temperature range in which the TV should remain. Fireplace mantels generally range from roughly 4 1/2 to 5 feet tall, from the floor to the top of the mantel.

   Is a fireplace mantel too high for TV viewing?

   Does a TV need a fireplace?

   • It's also important to ensure there is proper ventilation around the TV in order to remove heat and smoke effectively.

   How tall should a fireplace mantel be?

   • Fireplace mantels generally range from roughly 4 1/2 to 5 feet tall, from the floor to the top of the mantel. The standard ceiling height in newer construction is around 9 feet tall. So that doesn't give you much space to work with for a TV above the mantel, especially if you don't want the TV to look squeezed into the space.
