Installation of a TV over the Bioethanol Fire

Installation of a TV above a bioethanol fire is very popular. Not only will it add a personalised and unique touch to your home, it will also offer the possibility of enjoying the cosy flames while watching the newest episode of your favourite series.

This guide is for people who want to build their own ethanol fireplace and only buy the bioethanol burner. However, the basic principles also apply to other types of bio fires.

To ensure that the fire and heat will not damage the TV, there are some preventive measures you may want to follow.  You may contact with contact us for more accurate clearance dimensions between TV and your wall .

Once your ethanol fireplace has been installed, it’s time to install your television. Don’t forget the most important step; you must measure at least 12” to ensure no damage can be caused to your tv. Here is a step-by-step process on how you can properly mount your television above your fireplace:

1.Lay your new television flat on a soft surface with the screen facing down

2.Place your mounting brackets on your television

3.While your screen is face down, measure from the bottom of the screen to the hook of the arms to discover the wall bracket. Write this number down, because you won’t need it until you decide on the placement of your television

4.Next, find the correct placement of your television–make sure it’s the recommended safe distance from your fireplace

5.Once you have found your spot, measure your wall, and find the correct placement for your bracket

Now that you have your placement, you can install your bracket and hang your television on the wall
