Can a plasma or LCD screen be mounted above a working fireplace?

Yes. Under normal circumstances, if the fireplace has a mantlepiece to deflect the heat there should not be a problem mounting above a fireplace. Gas effect fires generate little upward heat so rarely present a problem. Real fires obviously use a live flame and generate more heat, therefore more care needs to be taken. If in doubt please call us or email us an image of your fireplace and we can advise.
