Can I keep electronics on top of my radiator cover during the winter ?

Hi Ryan, it's perfectly okay to put electronics on the radiator but you do run the risk of them overheating. You can buy or make a radiator cover to prevent excessive heat from escaping at the top. Here's more info about radiator covers that should help - https://www.homeserve.com/uk/living/home-and-lifestyle/do-radiator-covers-block-heat/

It should be ok to put the tv on a radiator cover, but I would check the manual that came with it for specifics. If you can't locate the manual, give customer service a call and ask, have ready the make and model.

I wouldn't do it. Radiators can get quite hot.

Hello. I would be concerned about the heat transferring upward toward your electronics. A wall mount might be suggested..

Here’s a link with some helpful solutions

The heat from the radiator could be a big problem. Heat and electrical equipment don't mix.

Hi Ryan, It is not advisable to position a radiator close to a TV, as the emerging heat could cause potential damage to the television. You could invest in an adjustable wall-mounted bracket, enabling your TV to project away from the wall, and a safe distance from the heat provided by your radiators.

I would definitely either check the manual or contact the manufacturer before doing so as even radiator covers can get quite hot.

Heat would be the killer. The TV already gets hot and has vents on the back to dissipate the heat. Install a shelf at least one foot above the radiator or a wall mount for the TV above the radiator. A TV stand would still have to be at least 6" to 12" from the front of the radiator taking up floor space. It can also block the radiant heat the radiator gives off.

Why not but a wall mount instead?

Could you perhaps make or buy a shelf that will let air circulate in-between the two?

I would not do that the heat can destroy the monitor and your tablet.

No good the heat will ruin the tv it will eventually mess up the insides and it won’t work ,maybe if you put a couple of pieces of thick wood under it but I wouldent do it at all.

YEs build a shelf away from heat

Common sense dictates that no electronics be placed near a heat source. Not your phone, your iPod, your iPad, NOTHING. Put your charging cables and devices where they will be away from ANY heat sources!!!!!!! REMEMBER HEAT AND PLASTIC do not go well together.

You need a heat deflecting material to build a shelf with and a couple of brackets.
