The vacant spot over the fireplace is a good spot to hang a flat TV screen panel. In addition, the brick or cement wall is much better for keeping the TV wall mounts secure and firm than the standard wooden wall. When placing your TV over the fireplace, your concern should be on the heat and the placement of the wiring. Once those issues are resolved, there shouldn't any problem installing the wall mounts and hanging the TV above the fireplace. Before anything else, you will need a thermometer to check the hot spots. Start a fire in your fireplace and build it up to your normally desired heat. You should make sure the fire is hot enough to handle the cold within the room. Increasing the heat by a few degrees more will ensure the surrounding areas are registering the correct temperature. Once the fire is blazing hot, take your thermometer and take temperature readings above the fireplace at different heights and locations. Check your TV manual on the safe temperature for the TV. Consult electrical engineers on the safe temperature for the wiring. You don't want the TV and wiring to get affected by the heat from the fireplace. The TV may have to be placed on a high height to ensure it is far from the heat but that shouldn't be a problem since there are models of TV wall brackets with tilt and swivel features. These features make it easier to decide on the location of the TV. You can tilt and swivel the TV to the desired angles after you've installed the TV brackets.
Put the thermometer readings on the wall so you can track the heat across the wall above the fireplace. Get a cardboard the equivalent size of your TV and lay it on a cool area of the wall and visualize the appearance. It will also give you an idea of the degree of tilt and swivel that may be needed. The TV wall mounts have different models with varying maximum tilt and swivel degrees, and your tests will help determine the correct degrees for the swivel and tilt. This should facilitate choosing the right model and type of TV wall mount.
Wall Mounting Brackets
Mark the spots on the wall for the mounting screws by placing the first section of the TV bracket into position. Be sure there are no wires or pipes in your chosen location. Drill holes using the masonry drill. The wall should be fairly sturdy since it is made of bricks and concrete, and studs might not be necessary. The TV wall mounts normally come with anchors designed for brick or cement walls. A #8 plastic anchor should suffice for the job. Test the stability of the mount by giving it a few pulls. It shouldn't move at all. You can cement the screws to the wall if you want to be doubly safe. Lifting the TV and mounting it on the wall brackets may take several people. Get your friends and neighbors to help you life and mount the TV on the brackets. Be sure the mechanisms are locked in place and that everything is secure and firmly in place. Run the power cord and cable along the sides of the wall and cover them to make the wall look neat and clean. Be sure you run the wires in the cool spots above the fireplace. There are TV brackets that have boxes to hide the cables going out of the TV.
