ANAHEIM, Calif., Dec. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- As consumer spending on flat-panel TVs continues to grow, more homeowners are getting rid of their bulky entertainment centers in favor of flat-panel wall mounted TVs. The percentage of U.S. households planning to buy a new TV is at an all-time high. In fact, according to ABCNews.com, in June 2008, 12.2 percent of U.S. households planned a TV purchase.

To support and showcase the millions of do-it-yourselfers and weekend warriors who will be hanging flat-panel TVs in the next few months, Premier Mounts (www.premiermounts.com) has created two videos, the "Good-to-Go" how-to video and "DIY Style" newsreel, showcasing real homeowners who have recently wall-mounted their new TVs.

The non-commercial videos are available for download at several video-share Web sites including YouTube, Veoh, Yahoo! Videos and Howcast -- as well as the Premier Mounts Web site.

"One of the most common problems that consumers encounter is that they do a lot of research on the flat-panel TV itself but seldom think about the mounting solution they are going to use when they get that new TV home," said Jason Cole, product marketing manager at Premier Mounts. "A mount can bring a lot to an installation -- not only can it protect your investment and provide viewing flexibility, it can also open up a room or accent your decor. The Good-to-Go video is really designed to offer the basics, it also demystifies what can seem like a daunting project."

According to Cole, the element consumers are most concerned with is proper placement of the flat-screen TV on the wall. He suggests placing a piece of wrapping paper, approximately the size of the display, on the wall and "live with it" for a couple of days. Using this technique, consumers can determine if the display is set at the appropriate level or if glare from windows needs to be considered. Once the position is determined then consumers should research their mounting options.
