Installation
With user-supplied hardware, mount the LCD-8 securely in an upright posi-
tion (sensor grid at top; see Figure 3) in a clear and open area typical of the area to
be melted, either above the roof line or removed from the building and exposed to,
rather than protected from, falling snow.
Avoid overhead trees, shrubs, wires, eaves, etc., and falling or blowing debris.
Avoid vehicle and foot traffic. Do not create a safety hazard.
Avoid exposure to artificial heat sources and excessive shock and vibration.
The LCD-8 also should be positioned at a height above ground that reduces,
eliminates or discourages damage caused by animals or vandals.
