White Painted Mantel

Many People have TVs over their fireplaces, but don’t realize the potential harm of overheating the TV and its components. The ideal operating temperature of TVs today are between 50-104oF. Temperatures outside this range will negatively affect the operation of your TV.

A simple and elegant way to mitigate this threat of heat is to install an appropriate sized mantel to act as a buffer between the Fireplace and TV. Acting like a shield, the mantel eliminates radiant heat from the fireplace altogether. While effectively redirecting convective heat out and away from the TV.

This is the second heat buffering mantel we have installed this year for customers. What a difference it has made to fireplace room aesthetics and the well-being of one of the most important appliances in the house.
