Hi there, thank you for your question about mounting your LG OLED65C4PUA above the mantle and fireplace! We understand that you're concerned about the safety and potential impact of heat on your TV. When it comes to mounting a TV above a fireplace, it's important to consider several factors: Heat Exposure: Excessive heat from a fireplace can negatively affect the TV's internal components over time. We recommend ensuring that your fireplace is well-ventilated and that there is no direct exposure to heat. If you regularly use the fireplace, you might want to consider installing a heat shield or ensuring that the TV is placed at a sufficient distance from the heat source. TV Placement: The OLED65C4PUA has specific mounting requirements (VESA 300 x 200) and should be installed using a wall mount that is compatible with the TV's dimensions. Make sure the mount is securely attached to a solid structure, as mounting a TV above a mantle can sometimes involve additional considerations to ensure safety. Warranty Considerations: Mounting the TV itself will not void the warranty, as long as it's done according to the manufacturer's installation guidelines and using the correct mounting hardware. However, if the TV is exposed to heat or other environmental factors that cause damage, the warranty may not cover this type of damage. It’s always best to consult the warranty terms for specifics about heat damage exclusions. If you are unsure about installation or placement, we recommend consulting a professional installer to ensure safe and optimal mounting conditions. https://www.lg.com/us/tvs/lg-oled65c4pua-oled-4k-tv#pdp_specs For further assistance, please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport, and our team will be happy to help! —Renzo
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I attached a piece of 2 inch aluminum angle (painted black) to the bottom front edge of the mantle, the same length as the mantle. The heat "funnels" to both ends of the mantle keeping the heat off the TV. It also looks great since my fireplace has a black metal natural gas insert.
