Television Aerials - is an indoor aerial suitable for me?

By Owen Telestar on 6 February 2023
Indoor aerials are used for a variety of reasons. They’re ideal for people who live in areas where there’s weak or poor signal strength from the local transmitter, or who live in a block of flats or other multi-storey buildings where the signal strength is reduced. They’re also ideal for people who are unable to install an outdoor aerial due to restrictions on their property.

What is an Indoor Aerial?

An indoor television aerial is a type of antenna used to pick up broadcast television signals from a local transmitter. It is typically smaller than an outdoor aerial and is designed to be used indoors. The most common type of indoor aerial is a ‘loop’ antenna, which consists of a small loop of wire that’s connected to a receiver. The wire can be bent and adjusted to receive signals from a specific direction.

Indoor aerials are typically very easy to install and use. They don’t require any additional equipment or tools, and they’re usually very compact, so they can be easily stored when not in use. They’re also relatively inexpensive, so they’re a great option for people on a budget.

Indoor aerials are not as powerful as outdoor aerials, and the signal strength may be reduced if there’s a lot of interference from other signals in the area.

For these reasons, it’s important to get the right advice when installing an indoor aerial. At Owen Telestar Aerials, our experienced engineers can provide you with the advice you need to make sure you get the best possible reception from your indoor aerial.

The Benefits of an Indoor Aerial

An indoor aerial might be the solution you’ve been looking for if you have limited space, or you're unable to access your roof. Indoor aerials are typically smaller than external aerials, and so can be more discreetly fitted. This can be especially useful if you live in a listed building or conservation area, where external aerials are not permitted.

Indoor aerials are easy to install, and can be quickly and conveniently placed in the ideal spot to get the best signal. They are also highly portable, meaning they can be moved to different rooms in the house if needed.

Common Issues with Indoor Aerials

Are you having trouble with your indoor aerial? If so, you’re not alone. Indoor aerials can be tricky to get right and there are a number of common issues that can arise.

One of the most common problems is poor signal strength. This is especially true if you’re living in a rural area with weaker signal. An indoor aerial won’t pick up as much signal as an outdoor one, and so you may find you’re getting limited channels or a fuzzy picture.

Another common issue is interference. This can come from a variety of sources such as electric wires, microwave ovens and even mobile phones. This can cause the picture to break up or cause a buzzing sound to come from the speakers.

Lastly, indoor aerials can be quite delicate and may need to be replaced if they’ve been damaged. This can be due to a variety of factors such as age, the weather or a lack of proper installation.

If you’re having any of these issues with your indoor aerial, the best thing to do is to contact a professional aerial installation service. They’ll be able to identify the problem quickly and offer a solution that will get you back up and running in no time.
