How Do You Protect a Mantel from Heat?

You can use a dedicated mantel heat shield or a mantel protector. These shields are designed to protect combustible materials that are in close proximity and also redirect heat away from the mantel and surrounding areas.

Increasing mantel clearance is another way because then it won't be likely to be affected by high temperatures. However, if you cannot increase the spacing, a mantel heat shield is a great way to protect your mantel as it will disperse the heat away.

Do Fireplace Heat Shields Work?

A heat shield is an extremely valuable addition to your fireplace or wood stove set-up because it enhances safety, can preserve the appearance of your mantel and maximize efficiency of your heating system. Safety is essential and a heat shield should be considered whenever you have a wood-burning stove or a fireplace in close range to combustible materials.

Heat shields can have the capability to redirect heat into the room which improves the overall efficiency for your fireplace or wood-burning stove. Using a heat shield to do so can create less heat loss through the walls or the mantel.

Heat Protection: Heat Deflector Shield

A mantel heat shield has a primary function to protect the mantel and the surrounding area of combustible materials from intense high-heat that is generated by a wood-burning stove or fireplace. A heat shield can protect your home's interior from fire hazards by excessive heat exposure.
