When looking to deploy a TV outdoors, you have to be mindful of several potential issues it does not matter if it for your own back yard, near your hot tub or outside your bar or restaurant, some serious issues will need to be addressed.
What is the potential theft risk? This can be if the neighbourhood is rather rough and there is a high crime rate in the area. This can have a two fold effect, your insurance for the TV will be very expensive and the insurance company will insist on some theft protection.
Will the TV be left outdoors all year round? If so, you need to consider some kind of heating and cooling source dependant upon the lowest and maximum temperatures in your region, otherwise the TV could be left in an icy tomb if it snows a lot and this will cause the internal TV circuits to corrode and fail. On the other hand, if the TV does not have adequate cooling and overheats, this too can cause the TV to fail.
If the TV is to be left outdoors all year, the cables for the TV should be deep in the group to prevent them from breaking down and failing, the last thing you want to find just before you sit down for the big game is that the TV will not work and this could be caused by the failure of the TV cables.
If you are certain of installing an outdoor TV system, you should seriously consider an outdoor TV cabinet, these come with cooling and heating solutions that have been proven in Canada and Norway.
