Preparing for installation
Dish installation checklist:
- Property Management Approval.
You may need to complete the landlord permission form and provide it to the installation technician, if you live in an apartment or are part of a homeowners' association. Your landlord or property management cannot prevent you from having DISH satellite TV but this form will ensure we adhere to the required regulations during the installation process. - Room Selection.
Choose the rooms where your DISH receivers will go. If you can, move the TV away from the wall and clear the path to wall outlets, etc. - Credit Card holder used to qualify must be present.
Make sure that the credit card holder who completed the DISH subscription is present at home during the scheduled installation time. - Secure Pets.
Please secure any pets to avoid contact with the technician - Parking Requirements.
Please keep in mind that the technician will need access to parking in order to begin installation. - Clear Roof Access.
Make sure your roof or balcony has easy access for the technician.
