Install the probe so that the local conditions at the sensors are typical of the environment to be measured:

 

Use either a shield or a louvered shelter to protect the probe and sensors from direct exposure to solar radiation and precipitation.

 

In an open field, install the probe at least 4 feet (1.2 meter) above ground in the case of a grassy, non reflective field. For roof top installation or any installation above a reflective surface, a minimum elevation of 33 ft (10 meter) may be required.
