It is possible to install/fit a TV above the unit. That said, to ensure adequate
ventilation, it is important that the recess created for this purpose has a maximum
depth of 4" and a minimum of 4" between the television and other objects
(walls, frames, etc.). Failure to do so may cause the internal temperature of the
product to rise and may result in fire and/or damage to the product.
A minimum distance of 2" between the back wall and the chimney of the appliance
must be respected at all times.
This configuration is at the user's discretion.
Stûv America does not recommend this installation
and disclaims all responsibility.

It is possible to install a shelf or decorative object made of combustible material
from 12 ⁄" of the top of the unit's opening.
In the case of a shelf made of combustible material, it is important to consider the
depth of the shelf as this can greatly influence its positioning in relation to the top
of the fireplace opening (glass frame).
Use one of the formulas below according to the most important known
measurement for a desired installation.

NOTE
However, we recommend avoiding placing combustible material
that extends over too large an area (e.g. a frame/poster) on the
wall above the fireplace. This can trap heat radiation and may lead
to a major fire event.
