1. The Hidden Failure Points of Using Home TVs in Business Venues
When outfitting 100 hotel guest rooms, 50 hospital patient suites, or corporate meeting rooms, purchasing consumer TVs from retail stores might seem cheaper upfront. However, within 6 to 12 months, facility managers face high breakdown rates, burned-in display panels, guest tampering, and denied warranty claims.
