Outdoor TVs 101: Everything to Consider When Selecting an Outdoor TV

May 9, 2024 - As the warmer months roll around, the call to soak up the sun and enjoy the fresh air comes to us all! Creating a welcoming outdoor space where friends and family can come together can make all the difference in creating lasting memories, so make sure you invest in the right systems, including your outdoor TV.

Outdoor TVs are the perfect solution for those who want to enjoy their favorite shows, movies, and sports while basking in the beauty of nature. If you’re considering investing in an outdoor TV, here are a few factors to keep in mind to ensure you make the right choice for your space and needs:

Weather Resistance

One of the most crucial factors to consider when choosing an outdoor TV is its ability to withstand the elements. Unlike indoor TVs, outdoor TVs need to be built to withstand rain, snow, dust, and extreme temperatures. Look for models that are specifically designed for outdoor use and are rated for weather resistance. Aim for an IP rating of at least IP65 for optimal protection against the elements.

Screen Placement + Installation

Depending on the placement of the TV, considerations for sun and shade will need to be made. Be sure to identify where the outdoor TV will be stationed to determine the best outdoor TV for your needs. Peerless-AV has a variety of outdoor TV solutions for partial sun and full sun areas so you always get the perfect picture quality.

Durability

Durability is key when it comes to selecting an outdoor television that will stand the test of time. Look for models built with high-quality materials that can withstand your area’s weather conditions. Features including rust-resistant casings and protective coatings can help prolong the lifespan of your outdoor TV.

Connectivity

To create that in-home environment outdoors, you may want to opt for a TV with a range of connectivity options to accommodate various devices. Look for models with multiple HDMI and USB ports, and Bluetooth and Wi-Fi capabilities. This allows connecting to your preferred streaming devices, gaming consoles, and more effortlessly.

Outdoor TVs are a fantastic addition to any outdoor living space. For more information on Peerless-AV’s line of Neptune™ Outdoor Smart TVs, visit: https://www.peerless-av.com/collections/outdoor-displays-tvs
