The Types of Installations Available to You

Freeview

All TV signals in the UK are now broadcast in digital quality. This has basically made high quality broadcasting mandatory and has improved access of Freeview in many areas. In order to access Freeview you will need to have a digital TV aerial installed and also a TV with built-in Freeview capabilities or a Freeview box.

Freesat

Freesat requires the installation of a satellite dish. It is similar to Freeview, except with regards to this installation difference. Accessing Freesat allows you non-subscription access to hundreds of channels, both TV and radio. All you need to do is have the right devices installed, and then flip through the many available channels until you decide what you are going to watch. It is that easy.

There are some requirements that must be met in order to utilise Freesat services. Your TV must have a built-in Freesat turner or you must have a separate and external Freesat box. There are different Freesat boxes available on the market for you to choose from. 

These include namely:

Freesat HD – Not only does this give you access to HD channels, but you get access to over 200 channels.

Freesat + HD – You get all the features of the Freesat HD. An added advantage is that it also comes with a built-in hard drive recorder. You can pause, rewind etc. live TV.

Freesat + HD Freetime – This has all the features aforementioned, as well as Smart functionality. It is also compatible with On Demand services so you can watched programmes that you missed with the click of a button.  

Sky

In order to access Sky you need to have a satellite dish installed, as well as a Sky receiver. Though this is a subscription service, it has a wide variety of channels that all offered in a high quality and is trusted by many throughout the UK. 

Foreign

You can also get access to foreign Television channels via the use of satellites. 

When you are making your final decision as to the company that will carry out your installation you should ask yourself a few questions, including: 

1. Is the company working under the authorisation of Sky?

2. Does the company have years of experience in delivering safe and long lasting installations?

3. Is the team to be dispatched to your home qualified and experienced

4. Is the company a member of the Confederation of Aerial Industries (CAI) and other associations that can attest to the professionalism of the workers and guarantee that the installation will be top notched?
