Mendota DXV35 TIMBERFIRE Installation And Operating Instructions Manual page 30

Recommendation 2: Create a recessed cavity
Frame a recessed cavity above the fireplace. The cavity shall be at least 6 inches taller and 6 inches wider than the television. The
cavity's bottom surface must be a minimum of 24 inches above the top air gap of this fireplace. The cavity must be deep enough for
the television to be recessed at least 2 inches in from the wall.
Recommendation 3: Install a heat transfer system
Mendota Hearth offers three heat transfer systems that take heat from the fireplace and redirect it to another area. When used
correctly these heat transfer systems can make it possible to mount a television above the fireplace without installing a mantel or
creating a recessed cavity.
Note: Heat transfer systems are not available for use on M27 model fireplaces.
WARNING: The convection fans on the fireplace must be turned off to insure the heat from the fireplace is redirected through the
heat transfer system. Turning the convection fans on will force heated air out the front of the fireplace, heating the surrounding
area.
- On fireplaces with a millivolt system: DXV35 Timberfire, DXV42, DXV60, M50 the convection fans must be disconnected
from power to insure they cannot be turned on.
