TV Aerial Installation Biggin Hill

It might be that you have just bought a new home where no aerial or satellite dish has been fitted or that it has been removed by the former owners. Not everybody in Biggin Hill is able to work at the heights involved in a do-it-yourself aerial installation. It is at this moment that you need a professional installation specialist to do a survey and install an aerial on your home.

But just what TV systems are out there?

FREEVIEW - Since the British Isles switched to digital broadcasting in 2005, all television sets that were sold from 2008 onwards had to be digital ready and feature an inbuilt digital decoder. To receive the digital programmes a digital decoder unit, or set top box was required for television sets that weren't digital compliant.

Even if you've got a set top box or suitable digital television, you still need a decent TV aerial to pick up the broadcast channels. Having the right aerial for your region is of huge importance to be sure of receiving a strong signal from the nearest TV transmitter.

Freeview provides all of the United Kingdom's main channels as well as Biggin Hill regional channels. You'll be able to receive up to fifteen High Definition (HD) and over seventy Standard Definition (SD) channels subject to your signal strength and region. Freeview also offers in excess of thirty digital radio stations, national and regional for you to hear via your TV set.

FREESAT - Uses a satellite dish to receive radio and television broadcasts so a standard aerial isn't required. If your television has a "DVB-S" connection, you might not need to have an independent digital decoder to receive TV and radio broadcasts.

The strength of the satellite signal and quality level are vitally important and this is relative to the size of the satellite dish and efficiency of the Low Noise Block (LNB - the attachment on the arm of the satellite dish . A larger dish when properly synchronised with a Low Noise Block can successfully gather in weaker signals, giving you a better chance of picking up channels from a wide range of countries and broadcasters.

In the Biggin Hill area you can tune into almost 300 digital channels (200+ SD, 20+ HD and 40+ radio channels) using a basic installation of a Freesat dish and box.

The premium TV satellite companies like BT, VIRGIN MEDIA and SKY also offer a free service much like Freeview or Freesat, where a subscription isn't a necessity. All that's required is an antenna or satellite dish and a suitable digital decoder.

Prices fluctuate across the range of packages and can be tweaked to fulfill your family's needs. From live shows, movies and live sporting events, to exclusive TV shows and music channels, you can pick from more than four hundred channels and watch TV box sets and movies all day long.

Some commercial providers additionally feature streaming content via your affiliated or independent internet.

Whichever service you choose, commercial, Freesat or Freeview, there are methods to record straight onto your decoder box, or to an external hard drive, to watch programmes at a later date.

A TV aerial must have a clear line of vision to the broadcasting station in order to gain the strongest signal. To do this may require the aerial to be installed on the highest point of your home and perhaps even placed atop a taller pole to elevate it above any nearby obstacles.

It's recommended that any aerial installation in Biggin Hill is carried out by an experienced and qualified aerial installer. The CAI (Confederation of Aerial Industries) offers training and accreditation to aerial installation technicians and companies, and offers clients peace of mind and trust in their local installation crew.

Despite the fact that a satellite dish receives its signal from an orbiting satellite, it still needs there to be no obstructions to receive a good signal. Any impediment from buildings, trees and other structures may cause loss of signal, interference and interruption to broadcast programmes.

Throughout the installation the fitting team will use technical equipment to maximise signal strength by accurate alignment and placement of the satellite dish. By fine tuning the alignment of the dish to receive the best possible signal, the dish can then be securely affixed to avoid any movement as a result of the effects of the wind.

Any type of installation, TV antenna or satellite dish will need a site survey for the installers to plan the task. This is going to include a routing plan for the cable from the satellite dish or antenna and the best point of entry for the cable into your property. If you have multi-room television needs the on-site survey is crucial to give you the best possible reception for every room. An accurate estimate for the entire installation project will be presented to you after this has been concluded.

Your local aerial installation company in Biggin Hill should have knowledge of the issues and signal strengths affiliated with the area. Consequently they can offer the necessary equipment to get the best reception.

The installation process itself will have the aerial technician fitting the aerial or satellite dish to your property and checking the signal strength. There may be some fine adjustments necessary during this process to ensure the best readings. The aerial cabling can then be laid and mounted along its pre-planned course, in through the cable entry point and terminated at the final destination within the property.

Finally a connection is made to your decoder or TV and the setup and installation of the system is completed. The installation is concluded when all of the TV and radio channels have been scanned for and stored on your system.

When picking out an aerial installation specialist in Biggin Hill there are a number of industry focused professional associations that provide trained and accredited, who can give customers the confidence they deserve. As we've already alluded to, the CAI provides Diploma Level courses and offer accreditation to its registered members and ensures industry standards are satisfied.

Before anyone is permitted to join the CAI accreditation scheme a vetting process will take place. Customers can have the belief and confidence that any company displaying the CAI logo operate to highest possible standards within the industry and are fully qualified to do any aerial installation task. Members of the Confederation of Aerial Industries also have to guarantee any aerial installation for at least 12 months.

The Government backed Trustmark service is another way to identify dependable satellite and TV antenna installers in the Biggin Hill area. When you notice the TrustMark logo for the home entertainment industry and signal reception it means that the installers is already a registered member of the Confederation of Aerial Industries, because if this is not the case the TrustMark logo cannot be displayed. The service provides an additional level of trust for customers and the knowledge that they are using competent, professional and safe technicians.

Yagi Aerials Biggin Hill

One of the most commonplace sorts of antenna in Kent is the Yagi television aerial. The Yagi TV aerial is an outstanding choice in areas where the strength of the signal is fairly good. Yagi television antennas are not suitable in locations that receive a poor or below average signal strength. All of the channels won't always be received by a Yagi antenna, even if the signal strength is pretty good.

TV Aerial Booster Biggin Hill

If you happen to live in a region with poor TV signal, reception on your favourite programs can be frustrating to watch. You will find that pixelated pictures, intermittent sound and frozen elements can all be brought on by a low signal to your digital TV or receiver. A decent aerial booster can help bring your signal up to the correct level for perfect viewing.

It's advisable to have a signal booster fitted as close to your TV aerial as is reasonably possible. This is to improve the signal close to its source and make sure that further weakening isn't brought about by the cabling to your television before amplification.

Before a local aerial installation specialist in Biggin Hill fits a booster they will first of all check out your signal strength and your antenna for any issues. If you happen to live in a block of flats in Biggin Hill or a building with a shared antenna, it might be required to install an internal signal booster. In such cases a powered signal booster is installed between the TV and the plug socket to increase the signal.
