OPTIONAL Signal Cable Routing Boxes {27}: If Signal Cables have already been routed to television location, please skip
ahead to step 24. Also, if the mounting wall is an external wall, or if there is no hollow area behind mantle, please skip ahead to
step 24.
The next several steps are for the use of optional Routing Boxes {27} included with MantelMount. These boxes allow signal cables
(not power cables) to be run inside hidden metal conduit through the framed area enclosing the fireplace, in order to rout signal
cables to a side wall. See the image below for a typical installation. Any installation must comply with all local building codes.
These boxes require the purchase of metal conduit, (2 inch I/D.), long enough for the desired location. When purchasing conduit,
use the Routing Box to verify size, but do not screw it in very far because it can be difficult to remove. Conduit can be twisted or
“unwound” slightly to help position or remove the Routing Box during test-fit or installation. Both ends of the conduit must be cut
cleanly with a hacksaw before inserting the Routing Boxes.
!
WARNING
You must verify with local building codes the minimum distance that the
conduit must be located away from the fireplace components. See the
image below. Failure to obey local building codes can result in property
damage and even loss of life.
!
WARNING
Routing Boxes {27} are for signal cables only. Running power cables next
to signal cables can cause signal noise that can affect audio and video
performance. Also, your local building codes might not allow power cables
to be run through conduit. Failure to obey local building codes can result in
property damage and even loss of life.
