Choosing a Mounting Location
The outdoor RH sensor should always be mounted on the north side of the building if in the
Northern Hemisphere, or on the south side if in the Southern Hemisphere. The sensor should be
mounted under an overhang or otherwise out of direct sunlight (if possible).
Mounting
