• Your Breeze Pro Sensor should be the tallest object in the area to avoid reduced wind speed values.
• To optimize the use of the Breeze Pro Sensor’s Solar Panel, battery life, and wind direction readings, ensure that the sensor is mounted with the solar panel facing directly to the South.
• Make sure all the screws on the mounting bracket, wind cups, wind vane, and battery compartment are securely fastened.
• Ensure the knob on the mounting bracket is secure and stays in your desired configuration.

• Avoid areas that may obstruct wind gusts such as eaves, rooflines, or trees.
• The Breeze Pro Sensor should be the tallest object in the area. An unobstructed rooftop is an ideal location.
• The sensor may be mounted on a pole away from any objects that may cause inaccurate readings.
