Local
The satellite industry has been cluttered with retailers that have little or no control over their technicians’ training or the quality of their work. There is also sometimes a lack of communication and understanding between sales people, the customer, and the technician. Our trained technicians are involved through the entire process from presenting our product, surveying the work site, and going through the sales procedure with the customer in their home which saves time and allows us to better serve the customer. We focus our service in Cedar Rapids and Iowa City, since we are from these areas. This is what makes us successful and unique.
Training
Down Right Technology technicians are trained and certified by the SBCA, (Satellite Broadcasting and Communications Association). Most retailers do not require this training and usually sub-contract the installation leaving training, safety, tools, and even insurance up to the technician. In addition we continue education and training in this and other fields such as home theater installation, security equipment, low voltage wiring installations, and more.

Paul was incredibly helpful in setting up my home theater and projector setup. We ran into several issues and Paul had an answer for each of them. It seems like Paul takes pride in his work and wants his customers to be happy, which can be a hard thing to come by when dealing with those “800 numbers”. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Down Right Technology to anybody.

Paul and John are both great! Our previous installers had wires everywhere and these guys fixed it so we no longer have wires everywhere! Tvs in our rooms were supper fuzzy.. No worries they fixed us right up! Loving our new cable due to these two very friendly guys!!

On time, knew what he was doing, and not only took care of the problem I had called about, he showed me how to fix a couple other things that had I didn’t know I didn’t know. :~)
Nancy Paul
This was an amazing service! Paul was very easy to contact and explained exactly what needed to be set up and what I needed to do before set up. The job got done very quickly and Paul explained how to use everything! I would strongly recommend to everyone who wants the job done right!

Professional, friendly, considerate crew. I couldn’t be happier with the installed roof top antenna I purchased from Paul at Down Right Technology. The installation looks fantastic and I’m getting strong signals from all of the local channels.
John Welty
After four years our antenna still working as well as the day it was installed. Still appreciate the extra time spent to hide cables. Thanks Paul!
Trina Douglas
LOVE Down Right! We’ll never call an 800# again since meeting Paul and John! They are quick, professional, and took time to explain all options (and icons) on our remote (TV). Last year, when we finished our basement… they were happy to stop over to hang our TV and Sound Bar. Definitely recommend calling Down Right for any TV service or questions.
Erika Lindblom
Paul was awesome to work with! I used his services 5 years ago and again recently when we moved… Professional and courteous! Would recommend him to everyone!

About Us
Down Right Technology is geared toward the trade of satellite installation and home theater related services while still providing customers with all the same store bought products and services our competitors offer. An analogy we like to use to describe us is: When you need a water heater you could talk to the sales person at the store who likely has limited knowledge or you can talk to a plumber who has the experience installing and servicing the product in the home. We’re locally owned and operated in Marion, and can complete service almost anywhere in the coridor, including Cedar Rapids and Iowa City.
Paul Lovisa
Owner/Technician
Paul began working for Dish Networks’ service provider, Blue Sky Satellite, quickly working his way from technician, to team leader, to warehouse manager. He started Down Right Technology in 2008 in order to start sub-contracting work from local retailers to better use his skills and make more money. He has worked for Dynamite Satellite, Big Dog, Great Plains, EZ-Comm, and others. Paul desired to do his job well and loved helping his customers. Soon he realized he could better serve his customers on his own and decided to become a retailer himself.Satellite TV, Internet, and Home Services
