What University Park chimneys actually deal with.
Nearly every remodel conversation around SMU includes the television, so here is the whole picture rather than the slogan. Heat rises, and the space directly above a fireplace opening is the hottest part of the wall — manufacturers publish a maximum temperature for the area above their units and televisions publish an operating range, and the two frequently do not agree. That is not a reason never to do it. It is a reason to design for it. The three moves that work: choose a unit rated for a television above and follow its published clearance, build a mantel or a projecting shelf that deflects the rising heat forward and away from the screen, and set the recess deep enough that the screen sits back out of the plume. The fourth consideration is not thermal at all — viewing height. A television above a fireplace usually ends up too high for comfortable seated viewing, and that is the complaint we hear a year later far more often than heat. The honest version: if the room has an alternative wall, the alternative wall is almost always better. If it does not, this is entirely doable and the details are what make it work.

Seasonal maintenance for University Park homeowners
Texas weather is hard on chimneys. Here’s what we tell every University Park homeowner to stay ahead of.
Inspect crowns before the first freeze
The crown is the cap-stone of the whole composition, and North Texas freeze-thaw swings split that masonry fast. A fall crown inspection finds the hairline cracks while they're still cosmetic — before winter moisture works into them and the centerpiece of the room starts losing its lines.
Book a post-hail inspection every spring
DFW's spring hail dents chase covers and lifts flashing — the finish details that keep the chimney looking and performing like new. A quick inspection after any major storm catches the slow leak before it stains masonry or rots the firebox you want on display.
Cap the flue against summer nesting
A warm DFW summer and an open, idle flue read as an invitation to birds and squirrels. A properly fitted cap with a spark arrestor closes the top of the design cleanly — keeping nests out and stray embers in, in one detail.
Scan pre-1990 liners with a camera
Older DFW brick chimneys are often the prettiest and the most quietly compromised — undersized or cracked clay liners hide behind sound-looking brick. A Level 2 camera scan reveals the damage inside the showpiece before it becomes a chimney-fire risk.
