   • Check the Temperature Before You Hang a TV Over a Fireplace. You may be planning to burn a fire while watching TV. If so, the place you'll be hanging your TV mustn't exceed the recommended temperatures noted on the unit's technical specifications.
   • Test the Viewing Angle. Consider the viewing height when placing a television. Ideally, televisions should be set at the eye level of seated viewers. Still, unless you have a very low mantel, this placement probably won't be possible above a fireplace.
   • Choose a Safe Method for Mounting the TV Above the Fireplace. There are several mounting methods and systems that allow you to easily place and hang flat-screen TVs above a fireplace.
   • Determine How to Manage Wires and Cables. Consider power sources and how you'll manage electrical wires, cable systems, and sound equipment. If there's no power source nearby, you might need to call an electrician to install electrical receptacles.
