These units come in a range of sizes that will fit spaces. A smaller model would be ideal for a bedroom, while a larger one could be used in the living room or family room. Certain models come with recessed options for flush installation against the wall, creating an elegant look. + +The height of a fireplace wall mount will also determine how it looks in the room. A lot of people put them higher on the wall to create a dramatic effect. They typically sit 6 to 12 inches above the floor. Some people prefer to put the TVs at a normal height of 4.5-5 feet.
