What Music Streaming Services does YB2U work support?
We work with Sonos Audio products, including the Sonos mobile app. Should customers want to use their existing speakers, but enable them for Wi-Fi using Sonos, we can provide the necessary products and services to integrate existing speakers into a new Sonos setup. The customer can call or email YB2U with more details about how they want their Music streaming services setup.
What Size and Type TV is Recommended?
Most customers use a 40-43″ Smart TV to take advantage of Wi-Fi streaming for use with their Yard Bars.
Is a Permit required?
Our products are less than 200 sq/ft and generally do NOT need a permit. We will ensure that the Yard Bars are not installed on top of Septic systems, however in the unlikely event the Yard Bar needs to be moved, YB2U’s modular design allows for moving, customers can call YB2U for more information and assistance moving their Yard Bar.
What Size Yard Bar Stools are recommended?
The finished height for the bar top is approximately 42”, therefore 30” bar stools would be recommended.
I’m not quite sure where to install / position my yard bar at my property, what are some of the important points to keep in mind when deciding on location?
There are several factors to consider when deciding on where to install your Yard Bar:
- Solid & Level Ground (i.e. Grass / Crushed Stone / Patio)
- If Lighting / TV / Music is desired, proximity to external power source via outdoor extension cord(s)
- Septic Systems – Yard Bar should not be installed on top of any existing Septic Components (ie: Tank / Distribution Boxes / Drainage Fields)
- Outdoor Wi-Fi Signal Strength – if TV and/or Music streaming is desired, a sufficient Wi-Fi signal must be able to reach the Yard Bar, otherwise an outdoor Wi-Fi extender or similar solution is required.
Can YB2U help with Site Preparation, Electrical and/or setting up Wi-Fi Services?
Yes, we can help with hosting site, including electrical and/or Wi-Fi
recommendations and implementation services. Contact us directly to set up a free consultation.
Once my Yard Bar is assembled and installed, can it be moved?
Our Yard Bars are built and assembled in a modular way, thus making it possible to breakdown the Yard Bar in sections and reassembled in a new location. The disassembly (and reassembly) should only be performed by a professional and licensed contractor that is comfortable working on framing and roofing projects such as sheds. YB2U can provide the necessary staff to assist customers should they need assistance with a Yard Bar move. Please have the customer call YB2U for more information.
Can we paint our own Yard Bar?
Yes, our customers are encouraged to personalize their Yard Bar with paint, décor and more. Any exterior paint or stain will work well – its all about personal preference. If you choose the pressure treated wood option for your Yard Bar, it could take several weeks before the pressure treated wood is ready for paint – see this article for more information. Call or email YB2U to receive many samples of painted, decorated Yard Bars to gain some additional inspiration.
If I purchase the Paint Package from YB2U, how does it work?
YB2U will contact the customer within 2 Business Days to discuss their Yard Bar painting needs including the scheduling of the painting job itself.
***PLEASE NOTE: If pressure treated wood was purchased, it could take several weeks before the wood is ready for paint***
