We recommend 32" - 36" over the playing surface. The light should reach the corner pockets. If you anticipate that your table will be used by inexperienced players, you may choose to raise the fixture slightly to avoid errant pool cue strikes.

In most homes we recommend that fixtures over tables to hang 60" - 72" from the fixture to the floor. For Kitchen islands 70" - 76" from the floor will provide good light on your workspace without hanging too low.

A billiard lamp should hang 36� high from the surface of the billiard table to the bottom edge of the lamp. Alternatively, if you wish to hang your light fixture before the table arrives it should hang 67� from the floor. Visit our complete line of billiard table lighting online.

You should at least see to that the chandelier is hanging as far up so everyone can see eachother across the table.

Absolutely. Many customers prefer to design their own billiard table or barstools. Since most of our products are manufactured in the U.S.A. we can offer an unlimited selection of stains, billiard table cloth/bartstool fabric, and styles through custom orders.

First keep the table covered when you are not using it. this will protect the table from dirt particles, which can breakdown, the cloth fibers and shorten the life of the cloth. To clean dirt and dust use a billiard table brush. Brush the cloth regularly. Brush the bed cloth away from the nameplate. brush the rails clockwise. after brushing, wipe pockets or pocket liners with a damp cloth to remove lint. Brushing helps remove dirt, chalk, dust, and lint from both the bed and cushions.

Brushing the pool table depends on how often you play. An estimate would be every ten hours of play. When the table is brand new, probably brush it every day even if you played only for an hour or two but is really not

Billiard table cloth generally lasts 5-7 years (depending on use) and comes in several styles.

Measure the playing area from the cloth covered nose of inside cushion rubber to the opposite cushion rubber, both width and length. A regulation table has the following dimensions:

Thirty states have established government programs called "high-risk pools" that offer health insurance coverage to "uninsurable" residents whom private insurers might turn down because of their health status. High-risk pools typically offer coverage similar to that sold by private insurers. However, in some states, high-risk pool benefits are limited.

To the line near the bottom of the inflated ring. Do Not Overfill above the line as this may cause the pool walls to become unstable and possibly result in injury or property damage from the water flowing over the pool wall while in use.

It depends on user preference. Proponents of low hang points say it's more like a free flight (unpowered) harness, and this is only somewhat true--having to balance 45+ pounds of motor/fuel will never allow it to be very much like free-flight. Some say that low hang points allow more weight shift control, and this may be true, but weightshift ability is more a matter of the relative position of the hang points and the machine/pilot's center of gravity (CG).

Different hammock lengths (ring to ring) will require different instructions. We can only make recommendations and you will have to tweak the installation to suit you. If your hammock is 13 feet long you will want a space approximately 15 feet apart with a foot of chain or rope at each end to adjust the hammock up or down from the ground. The hammock hooks that you hang the hammock from should be at least 4 to 5 feet off the ground.

Hanging your set at the right height makes all the difference for comfortable viewing. In general, there are two schools of thought: If you will be watching the TV while sitting on the couch, then the center of the TV should be at eye level when sitting up straight on the couch. However, this could make the TV seem low when standing next to it.

Consider your heavy bag as your opponent. With that in mind, the bag should be high enough to deliver a blow to the "head", so the top of the bag should be about level with the top of your head. If you have a very short bag, you may need to adjust this height somewhat. Unfortunately, this is normal. The combination of your punches and gravity are causing the contents of the bag to settle to the bottom. The best and maybe only option you have, is to purchase an outer cover for your bag.

A chandelier that is hung in a foyer should have the bottom at least 8 feet above the floor. If the ceiling is very high the chandelier may be hung higher than 8 feet. If there is a window above the door thru which the chandelier will be seen from the outside, the chandelier should be hung centered in relation to the window.

This depends a lot on the conditions in which it is flown, but flights in excess of 300 miles in length and altitudes of well over 20,000 ft. MSL have been recorded. More typically, pilots in the summer frequently achieve altitudes of 5,000 to 10,000 ft AGL and fly for over 100 miles.

The recommended distance from the ground for placement of the tree hook is between 4 and 5 feet. If your supports are closer than the above recommended distance, the tree hooks should be raised.

The brush is the second most important item when it comes to caring for pool tables. Brush the table in one direction only, the same direction each and every time. The most recommended direction is from head to

An occasional once-over with the vacuum cleaner will really help to keep cloth looking new. The vacuum picks up the stubborn lint and micro-fine cat hair that the brush misses, as well as suck any chalk and powder out of the fibers. A lot of people prefer the dusting attachment. The bristles help loosen the chalk as you vacuum the surface of the cloth. They also keep from applying too much suction to the cloth, which can also stretch the cloth.

A pool tables weight will vary between manufacturer, table style / design and the thickness of the slate. A good rule of thumb is to expect the table to weigh between 225 and 300 kiolgrams. Floors that have minimal support will flex slightly as players move around the room. This will impact with the balance of the table over time.

Depending on the manufacture and style of the table, moving can be difficult or may damage the table, if attempted by the homeowner. To properly move a snooker or pool table, it should be disassembled, moved, assembled and re-leveled. When a table is installed it is made level to earth and each piece of slate is registered to its mate. If a table is moved without realignment, it will loose accurate playability and in some cases it will be damaged.

Yes. Contrary to popular belief, our pool table does not take up much booth space. The outer dimensions of the table are 4 ft x 8 ft that is equivalent to the size of two banquet tables.
