Add Warmth to Your Home With a Fireplace Wall Mount

Size

A smaller model would be perfect for a bedroom while a larger model can be utilised in a family room or living room.

The height of a fireplace wall mount can also influence the way it appears within a room. Many people mount them higher up on the wall to create a dramatic impact. They are usually 6 to 12 inches higher than the floor. Some people prefer to put the TVs at the normal height of 4.5-5 feet. This allows them to be seen by the majority of people sitting in the room.

For instance, you should make sure that all combustible things are kept at a minimum of three feet away from the fire including drapes and furniture.
