THINGS TO CONSIDER WHEN ADDING A TV TO YOUR OUTDOOR SPACE
Make the most of your new outdoor set-up by keeping these things in mind when installing an outdoor TV:
USE A TV DESIGNED FOR OUTDOORS
One of the most common mistakes people make when adding television to their outdoor spaces is using an indoor model. These TVs may look similar, but there are significant differences.
The biggest problem with using an indoor TV outside is the glare. Outdoor televisions like Séura and SunBrite come with anti-glare screens to provide a comfortable viewing experience even when the sun is at its brightest. Some TV models are built for partially shaded areas, such as patios, while others are made to sit in full sunlight.
In addition to this, outdoor TVs are also resistant to various weather conditions, such as heavy rain, harsh heat, and excessive winds. By contrast, an indoor television will have a short lifespan if installed outside.
CHOOSE THE MOUNTING PLACE CAREFULLY
The place where you mount your TV is directly linked to the viewing experience you and your guests will have, so make sure to give it some thought. Outdoor TV installation experts can help you find optimal spots in your yard to create an immersive theater experience.
Depending on the kind of outdoor TV you buy, you might want to avoid mounting it in a place where it gets direct sunlight. This can be done by facing the TV southwards or installing it under a shade, such as an awning, pergola, or gazebo. Make sure you know if you’re buying a shaded outdoor TV model or a full sun model.
GET THE SPEAKER PLACEMENT RIGHT
The trickiest part of outdoor TV installation—and where you will benefit from expert advice—is setting up the audio to create a smooth blanket of sound throughout the outdoor space. The key to it is the strategic placement of speakers, which is where most DIYers fail. Home installers can help you select speakers, subwoofers, and amplifiers to magnify every sound and deliver a magical viewing experience!
