Mount your TV above a fireplace so the screen center is ideally no more than sixty inches from the floor to minimize upward neck tilt. Since fireplaces are higher than usual sitting eye levels, use a tilting wall mount angled downward ten to fifteen degrees to reduce neck strain. Alternatively, consider placing the TV slightly off-center or on an adjacent wall if mounting height exceeds comfortable viewing range. Measure your seated eye height, then add an allowance for fireplace height, keeping maximum viewing angle under fifteen degrees. By adjusting tilt and considering seating distance, you ensure clear picture and comfortable posture during extended viewing.
