Question:

Where should the TV be mounted?

 

Answer:

The location for mounting a TV depends on various factors such as viewing distance, structural integrity, placement above a fireplace, avoiding extreme temperatures and humidity, and accessibility to external devices.

Viewing Distance: Calculate by dividing TV size by 0.55. Example - For a 60" TV, sit at least 109". Smaller rooms require smaller TVs.

Structural Integrity: Ensure wall can support TV�s weight. Mount to a stud or use drywall anchors (toggle bolts).

Fireplace Mounting: Not recommended due to heat concerns (max 104�F), ash accumulation, and eye-level positioning. Use an adjustable mount if needed.

Bathroom Placement: Avoid placing Samsung TVs in bathrooms or highly humid spaces.

External Devices: Plan for cords from devices like gaming consoles, Blu-Ray players, etc. Some TVs have a One Connect box or use in-wall rated cables for organization.
