In times past choosing where to put the new TV involved either arranging the room around the spot where the TV would sit or purchasing an additional piece of furniture to function as a TV stand. However, the availability and increasing affordability of the wall mount flat screen TV has opened a whole new world of possibilities. Today there are even motorized flip down TV ceiling mounts that can be programmed and operated by remote control. By simply pushing a button, your LCD screen drops effortlessly down into one of your position presets and retracts back out of sight when no longer needed.
A Ceiling Mount Delivers Flexibility for Changing Room Layouts
A ceiling mounted TV eliminates all potential obstructions. It allows the viewer to enjoy 360-degree rotation as well as a full range of tilt angle. This ensures your TV can be viewed in absolutely any direction and is especially appropriate in places where the layout or position of the viewers may change.
A Ceiling Mount Maximizes Visibility
A TV mounted on the ceiling is located high above everyone’s heads, ensuring that everyone can see it without obstruction.
A Ceiling Mount Maximizes Floor and Wall Space
When your TV is mounted on the ceiling, it is neither standing on the floor nor protruding from the wall. This frees up floor and wall space for furniture, storage, or simply to create additional openness. This alternative is particularly important in a small living room, den, or office space.
A Ceiling Mount Creates A Sleek Appearance
A TV mounted on the ceiling will lend a streamlined, high-tech appearance to your room.
Three Important Considerations
Before you install your TV onto a ceiling you need to consider how you’re going to get the cables to it. Regardless of what bracket you choose, these usually either have a hollow tube that the cables can be dropped down from above or the cable can be tied to the TV itself to hide the TV cables.
The second thing you need to take into consideration is the electrical connection. At the TV position you will need electrical power, this could be either a longer TV lead or you may want to hire an electrician to install an electrical socket near the mounting position.
The third concern is how far from the ceiling should the TV be mounted. The answer is the larger the television, the higher it should be hung. A 42” TV should be mounted about 56 inches from the floor to the center of the TV, a 55” should be 61 inches, a 65” should be 65 inches, and a 70” should be 67 inches from the floor to the middle of the TV.
