If you have a mantle between the fire place and the TV it will help deflect the heat quite well.



My set up, I channeled out room for a conduit to run from behind the TV to the lower cabinet to the right that holds the equipment before I installed the cabinets and tile on the fireplace. Also added an electric outlet behind the TV and used an articulating TV mount to ease in hooking every thing up.

nice setup
