FAQ
How far should a projector be for a 90 inch screen?
A standard-throw projector needs about 7.8–13.1 ft from a 90" screen. Check your projector’s throw ratio — multiply it by the 78.4" screen width to get the exact distance.
Can I use a short-throw projector for a 90" screen?
Yes — a short-throw model sits just 2.6–5.2 ft away, and an ultra-short-throw projector only 1.18–2.29 ft (basically against the wall).
What size room do I need?
For standard throw, allow at least 13.1 ft between the projector and the wall. Tight room? Pick a short- or ultra-short-throw projector.
