The Need for Outdoor TV Cabinets

Picture this: you're sitting in your outdoor living space, ready to watch the big game on your outdoor TV, when suddenly, a strong gust of wind sends debris flying through the air. You check the news for weather information and find out bad weather is upon you. Without proper protection, your TV could be damaged beyond repair. This is where outdoor TV cabinets come into play. They act as a shield, guarding your TV from wind, rain, extreme temperatures, and humidity. One such testimonial comes from a satisfied customer who shares their experience of how The TV Shield protected their TV during a hurricane. Let's delve deeper into why outdoor TV cabinets are crucial and how they defend against the elements.

Importance of Protecting TVs from Wind and Flying Objects

Outdoor TVs are vulnerable to wind and flying objects, especially during storms and hurricanes. The TV Shield and The TV Shield PRO are two exceptional outdoor TV cabinets that offer robust defense against such threats. The TV Shield is constructed with a shatterproof polycarbonate front panel and a high molecular weight polyethylene (HMWPE) housing, ensuring sturdiness and durability. On the other hand, The TV Shield PRO boasts a powder-coated aluminum and steel build, providing maximum protection against wind and debris.

Protection against Rain

Rain is another natural element that can wreak havoc on outdoor electronics. The TV Shield and The TV Shield PRO are designed to be waterproof (water-resistance against rain, splashes, and wash-downs but not under water submergible), shielding your TV from rain and water damage. With their innovative sealing mechanisms, these cabinets create a protective barrier, keeping moisture out and ensuring the longevity of your TV.

The TV Shield and The TV Shield PRO feature excellent thermal insulation capabilities, protecting your TV from extreme temperature fluctuations. Both enclosures offer built-in ventilation. Thermostatic fans and heaters can also be included when needed. This insulation helps maintain optimal operating conditions, ensuring that your TV functions flawlessly even in harsh weather conditions.

Humidity is a common concern when it comes to outdoor electronics. Excessive moisture can lead to corrosion and damage internal components. However, both The TV Shield and The TV Shield PRO are designed with moisture-resistant features. These cabinets create a controlled environment, minimizing humidity levels and protecting your TV from the harmful effects of moisture.

Wind and Flying Objects

During storms and hurricanes, strong winds can send debris flying through the air, potentially damaging your outdoor TV. To combat this risk, The TV Shield and The TV Shield PRO are equipped with robust features. The TV Shield incorporates a shatterproof polycarbonate front panel and a high molecular weight polyethylene (HMWPE) housing, providing sturdiness and durability. On the other hand, The TV Shield PRO offers the shatterproof front panel for peace of mind plus even stronger defense with its powder-coated aluminum and steel construction, ensuring maximum protection against wind and flying objects.
