Q UICK MO UNT ING T IP S WIND SPEED Ensure the sensor is mounted vertically – an unobstructed rooftop is ideal. • Your wind sensor should be the tallest object in the area to avoid educed wind speed values. WATE R L EA K Works best placed flat on the floor. The water sensor contacts should not be touching other metal. It will detect water at 0.031 inches (0.787 mm). When placed vertically the water needs to be at least 0.25 inches (6.35 mm) to trigger the alert.
