Where’s The Best Place to Put Your TV Aerial?

Ideally, you don’t want your TV aerial to stick out like a sore thumb. However, the best positioning for your aerial will vary depending on your property and in some cases, a visible aerial could mean the strongest signal. Once the strongest signal point is determined, you can decide which type of aerial best suits your needs. Smaller, more discreet aerials are an option if the strongest reception point is less discreet. Another factor to consider before aerial installation is potential interference. While reception may be optimum in a specific spot, if that area is vulnerable to interference due to weather, trees or infrequent obstructions, it may not be the best place to install it. This can sometimes be a case of trial and error, and aerials may need to be moved if interference becomes an issue. Buildings less than a decade old should have coaxial cables embedded in the wall cavities, leading from the loft areas to wall sockets. This eradicates the need for unsightly wires that can be complex to install. If your property requires surface-mounted cables, seek the help of a professional. 

 

 

 

Installing TV aerials is far from being a simple process, and is definitely not a do-it-yourself project. Fitting a TV aerial by yourself will also leave you vulnerable to many risks – not only will it be dangerous for you, you won’t have the required insurance, and there are no assurances that you will get the right signal. Hiring a professional will remove all dangers and will ensure that your new aerial is fitted professionally and to a high standard, with no exposed or dangerous cables. Hiring a professional will also be easier, more cost efficient and quicker. By having a professional carry out your installation, it eliminates you buying an aerial, trying to set it up and possibly failing and only then would you have to get a professional installer in anyway. Our specialists will always do their utmost to ensure aerials are installed out of view while providing a strong and reliable signal.
