Please note that we do not charge a "Call out Fee" for our local working area (generally 15 mile radius of Horsham) whilst carrying out estimates or simple diagnostic services, a possible fee may be charged for "Out of Area" & involved diagnostic works.
Television Aerials
We typically supply & install two types of aerials:
High Gain with 52 elements, CAI benchmarked standard 2
High Gain with 32 elements, CAI benchmarked standard 2
Both aerials are benchmarked & approved for digital reception.
We commonly install the 52 element aerial as this would receive more optimum signal reception & alleviate the possible need for signal amplification, the support mounting is ether middle boom or end mounted, we tend to install via the middle boom mount as this is more secure & will provide extended use of the aerial.
Typical cost:
The 52 element wide band high gain digital compatible/approved UHF aerial, up-to 6ft heavy gauge alloy mast, 6-9" galvanized wall or chimney fittings, up-to 25 meters digital approved coaxial cable (colour: brown, white or black), approximately 1.5 hours labour, coaxial plug, set-up & retune/demonstration.
Total estimated cost £202.00.
The final cost may be higher or lower depending upon the signals received, if the required signal levels are not received then additional materials/labour may be required ie : taller mast or signal amplification. Please note that if there is necessity to acquire additional signal levels then I would seek correct approval/permission prior to any un-forseen expence.
The 32 is recommended if there is an abundance of high quality signal levels, but can only be end mounted/supported, which can be of some benefit if there is an additional aerial, using the top/middle mount position on an installation mast.
Total estimated cost £192.00. (includes up-to 6ft heavy gauge alloy mast, 6-9" galvanized wall or chimney fittings, up-to 25 meters digital approved coaxial cable (colour: brown, white or black), approximately 1.5 hours labour, coaxial plug, set-up & retune/demonstration).
Please note: Television receiving aerials provide optimum reception via a clear signal path from mounted position to designated transmitter, if the line of sight to transmitter is obstructed by trees/buildings etc, additional mast length/signal amplification may be required.
Radio Aerials FM/DAB
Omni directional (receives signals via 360 degrees)
Multi elements for directional reception & to acquire increased signal levels
We commonly install omni directional radio aerials as they are more discreet in size & produce the appropriate signal reception within the local area (Horsham).
All aerials are supplied with Digital Benchmark/Approved coaxial cable (CAI standards) to ensure high signal transfer & optimum interference rejection.
Loft fittings (we do not recommend loft installations as this would reduce signal reception)
Wall of chimney via heavy gauge alloy mast & single/double/triple support fittings (not flimsy materials so to shorten the life span of the installation)
