What is a Non Standard ‘Ground Mounted Patio’ Mounting Solution?
Similar in concept to the ‘Flat Roof’ mounting solution, the ground mounting bracket is fixed to a concrete bases (Slab) at ground level to provide a secure base for the dish assembly installation. Commonly referred to as the ‘Patio’ mount, this solution can some times prove the only practical mounting position to obtain a clear line of sight to the satellite. This non standard installation option can also be used to provide a practical solution in areas of conservation/ natural beauty where the local authorities have deemed that satellite dishes are not permitted. In situations where a grounded mounting is required, the Engineer will need to establish a suitable mounting position and a safe route for the cable to take between the dish and the receiver.
