Tips to build the Perfect Home Theatre Room

 

Make Your Home Theater Room the Best Possible Ever

Building a home theater room can often be the true endpoint of home remodeling. Once you have concluded the more utilitarian work of fixing windows and installing floors, it’s time to reach deeper into the bank account and lavish attention on your entertainment needs. After all, who doesn’t need a home movie theater room?

But a home theater room is more than just a sofa and a screen. Certain requirements, like controlling outside light and the ability to cast a large enough picture, should be met in order to call this a proper home movie theater. Requirements apply both to video projectors and screens as well as to large, flat-screen TVs. When there is an exception, it is noted.

Locate the Home Theater Room in a Dedicated Space

A dedicated home theater room is a room solely dedicated to watching videos on a big screen. This means that little else happens in that home theater except for screening-related activities. And today, screening means far more than it ever did: streaming services like Amazon Prime, Netflix, and Hulu, BluRay movies, video gaming, and conventional cable TV.  

When the home theater shares space with other activities, the cinematic experience is lessened. When the non-dedicated home theater shares open floor plan space with the kitchen, cooking sounds and smells invade. When the theater is the living room, kids run around and light is difficult to control.

Spare bedrooms work fine, but they do need to be long enough so that viewers can maintain a proper distance from the screen. This is especially important with video projectors. At the extreme end, a projector needs roughly a 14-foot throw distance in order to cast a 150-inch diagonal picture, though short-throw projectors are available.

Control the Ambient Light

Ambient light means light from sources outside of the theater, such as from other rooms or through windows. With most home remodeling, you’re always trying to add more natural light. Home theaters are spaces where you want to ​limit ambient light, whether natural outdoor light or light from other rooms. Light-bleed kills video projection images and it even makes flat-screen viewing less than enjoyable. On the video projector side, you will need a projector with a high lumens rating if you have some ambient light that you cannot control. But the best way to deal with ambient light is simply to stop it before it starts, by choosing a space that already has little light, such a basement. If you cannot do this, limit the light with light-blocking curtains and shades.
