Televisions Placed Above the Insert

The following section gives guidelines to place a television above the insert.
IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING TELEVISIONS AND THIS INSERT
Most television manufacturers instruct the homeowner not to place the television above a heat source like this insert.
Doing so may decrease the longevity of the television and negate the warranty. If you do place a television above the
insert, you should place a mantel between the insert and television. Follow the guidelines below to reduce the
amount of heat reaching the television. Travis Industries does not take responsibility for any negative impact on
televisions placed near this insert.
Min. 1" (26mm)
Minimum Dimensions:
(a) Minimum Mantel Height above Base of Insert*
(b) Minimum Mantel Depth*
* Minimum mantel depth must be 8"(204mm) to allow heat to dissipate. If using a mantel larger than 8"
(204mm), make sure to adjust the mantel height (a) to meet the mantel clearance (see mantel requirements
on page 11 for details).

The mantel must extend 2" in front of the television and 1" to both sides.

If you have a television that is greater than 6" deep (including the 1" gap behind), you will need to alter the
mantel depth and height (see the example below).

The television must have a 1" gap to the wall to allow for proper cooling.
WIRING NOTE: If running wiring into the enclosure, use thermal insulating wrap around the wiring. Secure the wiring
to protect from contact with hot surfaces.
