Outdoor audio, whole-home sound, theater rooms and TV installation across Pleasant Grove - built for houses where most of the living happens out the back.
Pleasant Grove lots tend to have usable yards, and a large share of the work here is outdoor rather than indoor. That is a different trade from putting speakers in a living room, and most of what goes wrong outside goes wrong for reasons that have nothing to do with the speakers.
Water is the first one. An outdoor speaker rated for weather still fails if it is mounted where runoff sheets off a roofline onto it, or where a sprinkler hits it twice a day. The rating describes exposure to weather, not to being watered.
The second is the cable. A run from the house to the far side of a yard crosses ground that will be dug up eventually - sprinklers, fences, landscaping, a trampoline post. Cable in conduit survives that. Cable buried loose does not, and the repair is a trench rather than a pull.
Placement does most of the work. Under an eave with real overhang, out of the runoff line, above the sprinkler arc, and facing in toward where people sit rather than out across the property. Check the sprinkler pattern when it is running rather than guessing from the heads - it is five minutes and it is the single most common cause of an outdoor speaker dying early. Terminations matter as much as the speaker: a connection outdoors needs to be made to stay dry, not simply taped.
A patio television is a reasonable thing to want and a frequently botched installation. An indoor television under a covered patio survives longer than people expect and fails eventually; an outdoor-rated one costs more and is built for it. Either way it needs shade - direct afternoon sun washes out any screen and cooks the panel over time - and an outlet installed for the purpose rather than an extension cord run from the garage, which is both an electrical and a trip hazard.
We match Pleasant Grove homeowners and business owners with installers who do this as their trade rather than as a sideline. If what you are describing is really electrical work — a new circuit, a panel, rewiring a room — that belongs to an electrician and we will say so rather than take the job.
Usually water from somewhere other than rain - a sprinkler hitting them daily, or runoff from a roofline above. A weather rating covers exposure to weather, not being watered twice a day. Placement is the fix.
Yes. Yards get dug up for sprinklers, fences and landscaping, and conduit turns a future problem into a cable pull instead of a trench.
Yes, with shade and a proper outlet. An indoor set under a well-covered patio lasts longer than people expect but will eventually fail; an outdoor-rated one is built for it. Direct afternoon sun is what kills both.
Tell us about the house, the room and the stage the project is at, and we will match you with an installer who works this way.
