BEST HEIGHT FOR TV
The proper height to hang TV depends on the TV size. For example, if you have a 42” television, the ideal TV mounting height is around 56 inches from the floor to the screen center. For a 55” TV, the best TV mounting height is around 61 inches, and so on. The bigger the screen is, the bigger is the height. Experts recommend keeping the middle of your TV at eye-level while seated. This is normally about 42 inches from the floor to the middle of your TV. However, this might be different for you, depending on how tall you are when sitting on your couch. To calculate how high your TV should be from the floor, simply measure the height of your TV and divide it by two. Then subtract that number from 42, and that’s how high the bottom of your TV should be from the floor.
It is important to note that television manufacturers measure a TV from one corner to another, so you shouldn’t use your TV’s screen size to find its center point.
So, if you have a 55-inch TV, it is probably around 27 inches tall. In that case, you would divide 27 by 2, which is 13.5 inches. Then subtract 13.5 from 42, which is 28.5 inches. So, the average 55-inch TV should be mounted 28.5 inches from the floor to the bottom of the TV.
