Professional DStv installation in Waverley

Everything you should know before you book: what we do, how it works and what to expect.

Why Waverley homeowners call us

Waverley is a mix of townhouse complexes, estates, older suburbs and busy offices, and every one of them has different TV needs. A flat in a complex may share a communal dish, a house in an older suburb may have cabling that has weathered for years, and a new home may have no TV points at all. We look at your actual situation first, then recommend only what you need.

Our approach is simple. We give you a clear price before we start, we work neatly, and we test everything with you before we leave. If something is not right, we want to hear about it so we can put it right.

New DStv installation: what is included

A proper installation is more than putting a dish on a wall. The dish must point at the satellite with millimetre accuracy, the LNB must suit your setup, and the cable has to be run and sealed so that rain and heat do not damage it over time.

• A site visit to find the best position for the dish, with a clear view of the sky and no trees or walls in the way.
• Secure mounting of the dish, using the right fixings for brick, plaster or roof.
• Aligning the dish and checking signal strength and quality on the decoder.
• Running coaxial cable to the decoder and sealing every outdoor connection.
• Connecting the decoder to your TV, setting it up and showing you how to use it.
• Tidying up, so you are left with a clean finish and no loose cable.

The Explora Ultra and smart features

Modern DStv decoders do far more than show channels. Depending on your decoder and subscription, you can pause and record live TV, watch on-demand content, use catch-up, and run streaming apps on the same box. Many of these features need an internet connection, so a good home Wi-Fi signal near the decoder makes a real difference.

Extra View: two decoders, one subscription

Extra View is for households where people want to watch different things at the same time. Instead of paying a full second subscription, an additional decoder is linked to your main account. That means the lounge can watch the match while the bedroom watches a series.

Extra TV points

Sometimes you do not need a second decoder. You just want the same picture on another TV. There are two common ways to do this.

• Coaxial from the decoder output: a cable runs from the decoder’s output to the second TV. It is affordable and works well, but both TVs show the same channel.
• HDMI over Cat6: the decoder’s HDMI signal travels over network cable to a receiver at the other TV. This keeps full HD quality over longer distances.
