...you can't see the TV due to glare

You have a nice flatscreen TV...that turns out to be really only usable at night. If you try to watch TV during the day, you find yourself spending most of your time adjusting either the angle of your TV - or your neck - just so you can clearly see the screen without the background glare from the sun.

Consider...

Taking into account the position of the sun during different times of the day/year, typical seating position and the location of nearby windows relative to your TV when designing your living room.

There's another benefit to avoiding bright sunlight on the TV - bright light can disrupt the sensor and render your remote control useless.

Whilst having block-out blinds or curtains can also mitigate the TV glare problem, closing them every time you turn on the TV (and opening them again once the the TV is turned off) is definitely a pain. Best to think ahead and avoid the problem in the first place 👌
