In this post, we’ll explore why it’s important to create space between your TV and the wall, and how the CondoMounts Metal Stud TV Mount - Advance Tilt offers the ideal solution for this setup.
Mounting a TV away from the wall is more than just an aesthetic choice—it can enhance your viewing experience and extend the lifespan of your television. While many people aim to create that sleek, flush-to-the-wall look, a little space between your TV and the wall can offer many functional benefits.
Why is Space Between the TV and Wall Important?
- Better Ventilation
One of the most critical reasons for creating space between your TV and the wall is to improve airflow. Large TVs, especially those that remain powered on for extended periods, generate heat. Without adequate ventilation, this heat can build up, leading to overheating and potentially shortening the lifespan of your TV. When you mount your TV with a bit of space behind it, air can circulate freely, allowing heat to dissipate and keeping your television running smoothly for years.
- Cable Management and Accessibility
Anyone who has tried to fiddle with TV cables after the screen is mounted knows the struggle of working in tight spaces. Having some distance between the TV and the wall makes it easier to access HDMI ports, power cables, and other connectors. With the CondoMounts Advanced Tilt TV Mount, which pulls out up to 5.2" from the wall, you gain just enough room to comfortably manage and organize your cables. Plus, the tilting feature offers a handy way to tilt the screen while you make your adjustments.
- Optimal Viewing Angle
A little distance from the wall can also significantly improve your viewing angle. Mounting a large TV flush against the wall can sometimes cause glare or limit your ability to adjust the screen based on your seating arrangement. A full-motion or tilting mount gives you the flexibility to adjust your TV’s position for the best possible viewing angle. The CondoMounts Advanced Tilt Metal Stud TV Mount offers 10 degrees of tilt, allowing you to reduce glare and achieve the perfect angle for any viewing position, whether you're watching from the couch or lying down.
- Protects the Wall
Creating some space between your TV and the wall can also help protect the surface behind it. Over time, tight mounts can press against the wall and cause scratches, marks, or even damage to drywall or wallpaper. A mount that pulls out from the wall gives your TV enough distance to avoid unnecessary contact with the wall, keeping both your TV and your wall in great condition.
