European Home has developed four distinct installation methods to ensure that the wall above your vent free fireplace stays cool enough for the mounting of most electronics such as a television. In addition to mounting a TV, utilizing Method 4: Double Front Wall (Page 4) you can now bring virtually any material down to the edge of your fireplace including wood veneer and wallpaper. None of these installation methods effect overall heat output, so you get the same efficient fireplace with the added bonus of design flexibility.
Considerations to further reduce the amount of wall heat:
For best results, consider using non-combustible wall board with very low
thermal conductivity for any of the methods outlined below.
Both Skamotec 225 by Skamol and Promafour by Promat are calcium silicate
building boards that strongly resist the movement of heat from one side to the
other. The chase (enclosure) above the fireplace built with either of these
products will further reduce your electronics’ exposure to heat.

Protecting your Electronics (applies to all installation methods)
Method 1: Deep Mantel Without Recess Method 2: Recessed TV Method
3: Recessed TV + Mantel**
This option offers the greatest protection for your electronics. Method 4: Double Front Wall**
*Use this method if you would like to bring combustible finishing (such as wood veneer or wallpaper) to the edge of the fireplace face. For Method 4 you must have:
– 1″ gap on between the fireplace face wall
– 1″ gap from the front wall to the ceiling.
**This is to release the air created in the wall gap
Please Note**: Some electronics manufacturers specify that their products
should not be installed on, near or above a heat source.
Consult your manufacturer’s specifications.
Mounting an electronic device is ultimately the owner’s decision and
responsibility. European Home will not be held liable for any adverse effects
of heat on electronic devices located near a European Home fireplace.
