upright position (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.
The LCD-8 also should be positioned at a height above ground
that reduces, eliminates or discourages damage caused by
animals or vandals.
AVOID
overhead trees, shrubs, wires, eaves, etc., and
falling or blowing debris.

hazard.
