Mounting TV Above Fireplace


Looking for some guidance, suggestions...

Full remodel getting ready to install stacked stone fireplace surround (entire wall) and wanting to place tv mount before stone goes up...I'm eliminating the mantle...and adding a gas insert.

How high above the fireplace would you want your television?

I put in a great Heat N Glow gas insert, puts out a lot of heat.  It gave minimum distances to flammable material specs.  You don't want to get your TV too close.  My TV was up high but tilted down a little.  When reclined in my chair with my head laid back, it was just right.  Standing in the kitchen was good, too.
