Using a Buildout Above Fireplace and Television

IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING TELEVISIONS AND THIS FIREPLACE

Most television manufacturers instruct the homeowner to not place the television above a heat source. Doing so may
negatively affect the longevity of the television and may negate the warranty. If you do place a television above the
fireplace, please be aware of the large amount of heat generated by the fireplace and consider placing the television
above a mantel to reduce the amount of heat that reaches the television. The homeowner must understand that
Travis Industries does not take responsibility for any negative impact to televisions placed near this fireplace.

Minimum Dimensions:

(a) Minimum Buildout Height above Base of Fireplace*

47” (1194mm) with 10” (254mm) buildout depth

(b) Minimum Fireplace/TV Buildout Depth*

Minimum 10” (254mm)*

60.25” (1531mm)

* Buildout depth is 10” minimum to allow heat to travel forward and dissipate. If using more than an 10”
buildout, make sure to make the buildout height (a) higher (buildout must meet mantel requirements - see
page 39 for details).

NOTE: The buildout must extend 2” in front of the TV and 3” to both sides and top. If you have a TV that is greater
than 8” deep (including the 1” gap behind), you will need to alter the buildout depth and height.

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.
