How should I decide where to put my new TV?
You should put your TV where you want to watch it. There is no set location. We have installed TVs in some of the most unusual places. We've done outdoor TVs over hot tubs, off of ceilings, off of walls and over fireplaces. There is no one set place to put a TV. One of the big advantages of the newer technologies is that flexibility. There no longer needs to be a dedicated spot for the TV. You can put it anywhere you'd like. One of the factors to consider when you're trying to place your TV is light. For example, will the sun be shining directly on the TV? You generally want to try and avoid that kind of situation. You also want to think about where you watch the most TV. Do you watch it sitting in the family room? Do you watch it standing in your kitchen? If you're going to stand in your kitchen and watch TV, is the TV location good? Do you want to be able to move it around or to point it in other directions? Those are some of the basic factors to think about when placing your TV.
