TV installaon above a replace
If installing a at screen TV above the re the main issue is heat. Heat from the re and heat
from the ueing components that sit behind the TV, especially if recessed.
The Neo gas res have a fan that distributes warm air from the top of the appliance out into
the room. As warm air is dispersed outwards as opposed to directly upwards, installation of a
TV may be an option. The diagram below outlines recommended minimum clearances when
installing a TV directly above the Neo inbuilt models. All dimensions are in millimetres.

The 400 mm dimension is the
minimum clearance required
to combustibles and to a
mantel.
For a TV mounted directly
above the Neo, the mantel
must be at least the depth
of the TV to deect the heat
away from the appliance.
It is up to the customer to check the TV installation instructions with the TV supplier to verify
clearances. Some TV manufacturers have warranty conditions that state a TV is not to be
installed above a replace.
Rinnai does not accept any responsibility for damage to a TV resulting from the use of this
information.
