• Place the protective screen over the top to protect the rain gauge from the debris.
• Where practical, mount the rain gauge in place with wood screws (not included).
• Make sure that the rain gauge is in open area where precipitation falls directly into the gauge’s bucket, ideally 2-3 feet
above the ground.
Placement tips
• The rain gauge should be placed in an open area away from the walls, fences, trees and other coverings which may
reduce the amount of rain falling into the bucket. Additionally, trees and rooftops may be sources of pollen and debris.
• To avoid the rain shadow effects, place the rain gauge horizontally, on the distance corresponding to two to four times
the height of any nearby obstruction.
• It is important to locate the unit where rain can flow away freely.
