Basic Installation
You can either purchase a self-installation kit or hire a professional installer. DIRECTV® recommends that you let the professionals install your system. The DIRECTV installer will completely install your DIRECTV® System for you. This includes installing a dish on your roof, balcony or other location, connecting your receiver to your TV, and a brief lesson on using your system.
And remember to check out the current Best Offer - Standard Installation is included at no additional charge.
Apartment?
Start by asking your landlord, property manager or homeowners association if you may install a DIRECTV® System on your rooftop.
If you're not authorized to mount the dish on the roof or the side of the building, many apartment and condominium residents have the dish installed on a private patio or balcony - a clear view of the southern sky is required. If management has concerns about this, please visit the FCC website for information on your rights to use a DIRECTV® Dish.
Your system installation may require structure modifications that may be limited or restricted by the terms of your lease/rental agreement. To avoid delays in your installation, we ask that you obtain written or verbal permission from your landlord, homeowners association or property manager (or, alternatively, review your lease/rental agreement/HOA CC&Rs to confirm permission is not required) prior to scheduling your installation. To help you in your request, please use the DIRECTV Installation Permission Form. Ask about this when you order
Moving?
And don't worry, DIRECTV® will help you to move the system if you change residences.
Check this out: The DIRECTV MOVERS CONNECTION makes it easy to transfer your entire DIRECTV® service to a new residence with minimal hassle. Just tell them where you're headed, and they will not only send a replacement satellite dish to your new address, they will provide complimentary standard professional installation for everything including your receivers. How's that for a helping hand?
Here's What To Do:
- Before your moving date, call our Movers Hotline at 1-877-616-MOVE.
- Pack up your DIRECTV® Receivers, remote control, and owner's manual, and take those with you to your new home. Leave your DIRECTV satellite dish behind.
- Once you're at your new place, we'll deliver a satellite dish and provide our standard professional installation.
