Would it be safe to hang a TV over this wood burning stove?

SLS Construction & Building Solutions LLC on Nov 24, 2014Probably not, especially if you use it a lot. Not only do you have the heat the stove gives off but the TV itself. The other catch is how high you would have to mount it which would require you to either be standing all the time or sitting really far back to see it well / not strain your neckHelpful Reply

Nicolene Botha on Nov 24, 2014I have the same problem, and resolved it by having a winter spot and a summer spot for my TV. In summer, the TV hangs above the fireplace, and in winter in hangs on another wall. I obviously re-arranges my furniture accordingly. i also have a TV-sized painting that I hang on the TV-less bracket. Change is a good thing! =DHelpful Reply

Dee on Nov 24, 2014It is never safe to hang a tv over a fireplace. The heat will ruin it. Also hanging a TV so high is not good for viewing.Helpful Reply

Terra Gazelle on Dec 28, 2014People seem to want to hang a TV over a fire place..it really is not good for the TV. The heat will damage the tv. You can watch tv or use the fire..not both at the same time.Helpful Reply
