Tv Installation Above A Fireplace - Rinnai Symmetry RDV3611 Installation Manual

TV installation above a fireplace

If installing a flat screen TV above the fire, the main issue is heat. Heat from the fire, and heat
from the flueing components that sit behind the TV—especially if recessed
The Symmetry RDV3611 has a fan
that distributes warm air from the
top of the appliance out into the
room. As warm air is dispersed
outwards, as opposed to directly
upwards, installation of a TV may
be an option.
The diagram shows recommended
clearances when installing a TV
directly above the Symmetry
RDV3611, or into a recess. All
dimensions are in millimetres.
400 mm dimension
The 400 mm dimension is the
minimum clearance required to
combustibles to a mantel.
For a TV mounted directly above
the Symmetry RDV3611, the
mantel must be at least the depth
of the TV to deflect heat away
from the appliance.
Always check with the TV
supplier
It is up to the owner to check
the TV installation with the TV
supplier to verify clearances. Some
TV manufacturers have warranty
conditions that state a TV is not to
be installed above a fireplace.
Rinnai does not accept any
responsibility for damage to a
TV resulting from the use of this
information.
