How to Place the Video Projector of Your Home Theatre

 Projectors have become an integral part of the home entertainment system. They are used for viewing movies and sports broadcast with the entire family. To view high-quality videos and images on a larger screen, it is important to place the projector properly. If you won’t be using your projector regularly, then you can tuck it inside a cupboard after using it each time. Whether you wall-mount the projector or keep it on a desk, you should take care of the position of the projector lens. In this write-up, we have shared a few simple tips for placing your home projector in the right manner.

1) Take care of the type of image you want

Before installing the projector, you should decide how large an image you want to view. For projecting a larger image, there should be a larger distance between the projector lens and the screen. So, it won’t work well in a small room. However, to create a wider gap between the screen and lens, you can wall-mount it.

2) Safety is the key

If you have kids or pets at home, then it is important to keep the projector in a safe place. It is best to wall-mount it or keep it on a shelf. Well, whether you install the projector on a table or wall-mount it, it is important to keep the projector lens parallel to the screen; otherwise, the image would appear trapezoid instead of rectangular. While installing the projector, you should take care that the cords connecting it to the speaker and other electronic devices do not get intermingled.

3) Ensure proper ventilation

While placing your projector, you should leave plenty of space between its air filters and the wall behind it. In no case, the air filters should be blocked. Otherwise, the projector will overheat and this may lead to the premature expiry of the projector lens.

4) Create optimum atmosphere

You should not expose the projector to sunlight or any other source of heat. To work appropriately, the temperature of the room should not exceed 35 degrees Celsius. Also, the projector should not remain exposed to dust, dirt, and moisture. Therefore, you should avoid keeping it near a window. If possible, you should also install an air purifier in the room.

On a final note, we suggest you go through the user manual of the projector. If there is any specific tip or instruction mentioned in it, then you should follow it properly.
