Choose a location

A TV is purchased for a comfortable stay watching your favorite TV channels. But did you know that each room requires a different placement height? For example:

• In the kitchen, the height will not be so important, because there the device is hung in such a way as not to interfere with cooking.
• The living room pursues the comfort of location.
• In the bedroom, you must meet the recommendations of doctors, since viewing, most often, will occur in a supine position.

It is best to talk about each of the rooms individually.

Optimum height selection

The most important rule for choosing a position is the pursuit of comfort when viewing.

Important! Modern TVs do not flicker, and the display itself does not emit any electromagnetic waves, which makes viewing almost harmless. Therefore, just hang the LCD or plasma in the place that you think is most convenient.

But take your time when choosing, because you still have to consider the distance. The location should satisfy the optimal diagonal ratio and distance to the viewer's eye.

Important! Doctors advise putting plasma on 3-4 diagonals from the face. If you choose a TV, then consider this criterion.

Nowadays, TVs have a wide variety of display resolutions. There are HDTV receivers with Full HD resolution. If you decide to buy an LED or 3D panel, then take into account the resolution of the information output device:

• Devices with HD resolution must be installed at a distance of the diagonal size times 2.3.
• If the device works with Full HD (1080p), then the distance to the viewer should be the diagonal of the display times 1.56.

Installation of the device in the hall

What is the best way to hang a TV on a wall in the hall? First you need to consider the constant number of viewers. To choose a place, it is best to consult with all family members, but we will not forget about science. The most optimal placement height for this room is somewhere around 0.7-1.4 meters. The basis for this value is an approximate indicator of the arithmetic average growth of all viewers in the apartment.

You still haven't purchased the TV itself? Then you have a great opportunity to conduct an experiment. Pick up a poster or banner, which geometrically corresponds to the size of the diagonal of the future device. Use the “scientific poke method” to determine the best height based on the recommendations of other family members.

Important! If your room is very large, then you need to start from the floor level - place the gadget not very high, because it will be visible to both children and adults. You can also look around the room and start from the height of upholstered furniture. The higher your sofa, the higher the TV should be.

We put the device in the bedroom

At what height do I hang the TV on the wall in the bedroom? Here, you should also take into account the geometric dimensions of the furniture on which you will be located during viewing. Sit back in your bed as if you were looking at the device’s screen, close your eyes and open them in a minute. The first place where your gaze fell is likely to be better suited for the location of the gadget.

Important! In practice, it can be seen that in the bedroom the device should be placed a little higher than in other rooms, here comes another interesting rule - the angle of inclination from the center of the display to your eyes should not exceed a value of 30 degrees. This rule will help you avoid spinal curvature.

To adjust the viewing angle, you can use the simplest bracket mounts that come with the design. Brackets have hinges that allow you to adjust the location and angle. The best designs provide minimum movement on two planes.

What to do in the kitchen?

The height of the TV on the wall in the kitchen should be chosen so that the central part of the device is at the level of your eyes. Most often, the small area of ​​the kitchen prevents the competent choice of position, and cooking will constantly distract you from viewing.

And yet, at what height should the appliance be hung in the kitchen? Let's look at an example of an LCD TV with a TFT matrix. Such a device has a large viewing angle and almost does not reduce the contrast, but along the vertical axis it will be immediately lost. We conclude that the best place to install is the level of your eyes.

Important! If the area still does not allow you to place the TV as you would like, use the same bracket that allows you to move the unit along several axes. The use of this design will allow you to adjust the position as you want.
