The ideal height for mounting a TV isn’t one-size-fits-all—it varies based on the type of room and the bracket you use. In a living room, the TV should typically be at eye level when you’re seated. But in bedrooms or kitchens, it might be mounted higher for better visibility while lying down or standing.
This is where the type of bracket makes a big difference. For example, a tilting mount allows you to place the TV higher than eye level while still angling the screen down for a comfortable viewing experience. That’s especially useful when wall space or furniture layout limits your mounting options.
By considering both the room layout and the right type of bracket, you can achieve the perfect balance between style, comfort, and picture quality. Our calculator takes all these factors into account to give you the best mounting recommendation—whether it’s for a cozy bedroom setup or a modern kitchen display.
Best Mounting Height for a 70 Inch TV — What Actually Works
In taller spaces or installations above furniture — like consoles, fireplaces, or media walls — that number may increase to 50 inches or more. But once you’re over eye level, tilt angle becomes essential. Otherwise, viewing comfort drops fast, especially with a screen this big.
Use Our Smart Calculator to Nail the Exact Placement
Every room is different, and every installation should reflect that. Our TV mounting height calculator for 70 inch screens removes the guesswork by giving you personalized recommendations based on your actual layout — not just standard numbers from a chart.
Unlike most tools, ours provides both the center screen height and the distance to the bottom edge of the TV. That bottom edge is key — it’s the point where you’ll mark the wall for drilling. And with a screen this size, misplacing even a few inches can throw off your entire install.
Measure These 3 Things Before You Start
To get accurate recommendations from the calculator, you’ll only need three simple measurements:
- Viewing Distance – Measure how far your seating is from the TV wall. For a 70 inch TV, a comfortable range is usually 8.5 to 10.5 feet.
- Eye Level When Seated – Sit in your normal spot and measure from the floor to your eyes. This is often between 40 and 44 inches and forms the basis of a comfortable vertical angle.
- Height of Any Furniture or Mantel – If the TV will be mounted above a fireplace or console, note its height. Our system adjusts the calculations to ensure the screen doesn’t sit too high or clash with your furniture.
Get Screen Height, Bottom Edge & Tilt – All Calculated Instantly
After entering your measurements, the calculator gives you:
- Precise screen center height for your layout
- Distance from floor to the bottom of the TV – for marking your mount bracket position
- Recommended tilt angle (especially if mounting above natural eye level)
It’s simple, fast, and accurate — and works whether you’re installing on drywall, brick, concrete, or custom panels.
We’ll Help You Pick the Right Wall Mount – No Guessing
A screen this size deserves a mount you can trust — and our system helps with that too. Once your mounting height is calculated, we recommend wall mounts that match your exact setup.
Our recommendations are based on real-world use and only include mounts we’ve tested and installed ourselves. That means:
- Each bracket is rated for large-format screens (70” and up)
- Every option supports your TV’s weight and VESA pattern
- Mount types are matched to your needs – fixed, tilt, or full-motion, based on your wall height and viewing angle
No more random products, no more guesswork — just reliable solutions that fit your space and screen.
