TV Aerial Installation Todmorden

Alternatively, you might have recently purchased a brand new property which doesn't have a TV aerial or satellite dish installed. The installation of this equipment mostly involves working at height and not all householders in Todmorden are prepared to tackle this aspect of DIY installation. This is the sort of time when you are going to need the specialist services of of a professional TV aerial installer.

But what kind of system are you needing?

FREEVIEW - When the United Kingdom changed from analogue to digital television broadcasting in 2005, television sets were required to be digital ready to receive programming. In order to receive the digital channels a digital decoder unit, or set top box was required for TV's that were not digital ready.

It is still necessary to have a TV antenna linked to your set top box or digital TV to receive the TV channels. Having the correct antenna for your area is hugely important to be certain of receiving a strong signal from the nearest TV transmitter.

Freeview, via a suitable TV aerial, features national channels and Todmorden regional programming. Depending on your exact location and signal strength, there are over seventy SD (Standard Definition) and up to fifteen HD (High Definition) channels available. Freeview also offers in excess of 30 digital radio stations, regional and national for you to hear through your TV set.

FREESAT - Very much like Freeview broadcasting, but rather than signals being picked up from a ground based transmitter using a digital aerial, it relies on a satellite dish. If your television set happens to have a DVB-S connection, you might not need to have a separate satellite decoder to pick up television and radio programmes.

The dimensions of satellite dish and the effectiveness of its LNB (Low Noise Block) are of vital importance to receive satellite channels. A larger dish when correctly matched with a LNB can collect weaker signals, giving you a better chance of receiving channels from a wide range of broadcasting satellites.

A basic Freesat box and dish in Todmorden should be able to receive over 200 channels in SD, more than 20 HD channels and nearly 40 radio stations.

Premium satellite companies such as VIRGIN MEDIA, SKY and BT also offer a free service much like Freesat or Freeview, where a subscription isn't a necessity. All you'll need is a TV aerial or satellite dish and a suitable decoder.

The subscription packages which are offered by these companies can be customised to fit your family or business needs, and the costs vary as a result. You're able to enjoy everything from new releases and live sports events, to exclusive TV shows and box sets and practically everything else you'd need to keep everyone entertained, from a selection of more than 400 channels.

It's also possible to connect into additional services using your broadband connection for an even better variety of special features and programmes.

If you want to record content to watch at a later date, it is possible to use either the integral hard drive of some decoder boxes, or plug in an external drive, such as a USB flash drive, to save and store your favourite movie or soap until you would like to watch it.

In order to receive the best quality signal a television aerial must have a clear path to the broadcasting antenna. To accomplish this may require the antenna to be fixed to the highest point of your property and perhaps even fixed atop a taller pole to raise it above any obstacles or neighbouring properties.

An experienced and qualified aerial installer is the recommended tradesperson to bring in to carry out any installation work that's needed. The CAI (Confederation of Aerial Industries) offers training and certification to aerial installation companies and technicians, and offers consumers peace of mind and trust in their chosen installation team.

As is the situation with any sort of antenna, a satellite dish needs to be installed where there is nothing in between itself and the transmitter; in this case the satellite in orbit high above. Any impediment from buildings, trees and other obstacles may cause a weakened signal, interference and interruption to television programmes.

Throughout the installation the fitting team will use specialised equipment to maximise signal strength by accurate alignment and placement of the satellite dish. As the alignment of your satellite dish is critical for the optimum performance of the system, the dish will then be firmly mounted in position to prevent any possibility of movement.

Any kind of installation process, satellite dish or TV aerial will call for a site survey so the installers can plan the work. The survey will identify entry points to the property for the cabling required, safe cable routing and reliable attachment points for the satellite dish or television aerial. This is particularly vital for multi-room use of TV systems that use the same TV aerial or satellite dish. At the end of the you will be presented with an accurate estimate from the installation company.

A local aerial installation company in Todmorden will have an understanding of the signal strengths and problems associated with your area. This means that they can offer the necessary equipment to enable the best reception.

The installation process itself will see the aerial technician fitting the tv aerial to your property and testing the strength of the signal. To obtain the best coverage there will be some fine adjustments to the position of the aerial or dish. The aerial cabling will then be run and secured along its planned course, in through the cable entry point and terminated at the final position within your house.

The testing and setting up of the television set or digital decoder unit is then carried out to finish the installation. This will entail the tuning-in and saving of all television channels that are available on your chosen platform.

If you're not confident with your skills or don't have the correct equipment for the job, you should get in touch with a qualified TV aerial installer. They will be able to give you the right advice and provide a quotation. One option is to run a new coax cable through the wall and place the new aerial socket there. However, make sure that you seal the wall properly to avoid any issues with dampness.
