Freesat – 200+ Free Channels, No Monthly Bills
Free TV- The way it should be.
With subscription TV prices continuing to rise, most households watch less than half of the channels they pay for. That is why thousands of homes across Ireland are ditching expensive television packages and switching to Freesat, an easy, reliable, subscription-free satellite TV solution.
With Freesat installation in Dublin, Meath, Wicklow, Kildare, Westmeath, and throughout Ireland, you gain instant access to over 200 free TV and radio channels. No contract. No hidden costs. Just one installation and a world of entertainment: news, films, music, children’s programmes, lifestyle channels, and all your favourite UK stations.
At Smart Sat Connect, we handle the entire installation from start to finish: dish fitting, satellite alignment, cable routing, receiver setup, and channel tuning. When we leave, your Freesat system is operating perfectly and ready to enjoy.
What is Freesat?
Freesat is a free-to-air satellite television service that delivers hundreds of channels using a small satellite dish and a Freesat receiver or compatible smart TV. Unlike subscription services, it does not require monthly plans or long-term contracts.
All you need is:
- A satellite dish (new installation or reuse of an existing Sky dish)
- A Freesat receiver or a Freesat-compatible TV
- A one-time setup by our local installers
Because it operates via satellite, Freesat is ideal for areas without cable TV infrastructure or where broadband-based TV services struggle.
Why Freesat Is Ideal for Homes
Freesat solves two major issues for homeowners: rising TV bills and poor reception.
Homeowners love Freesat because:
- You receive 200+ free channels, including BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Film4, music channels, documentaries, children’s shows, and more.
- Perfect for rural homes, where traditional TV options are limited.
- Ideal for holiday homes — you won’t pay for months you’re not using the property.
- Can be combined with Saorview for a full mix of Irish and UK channels.
Once installed, Freesat just works — no apps, no buffering, and no complicated menus.

Your business benefits from unlimited viewing without monthly charges or licensing complications.
