This rain measure gauge accurately measures rainfall. The wedge shape allows for easy reading of even light rainfall.

The rain gauge has easy to read raised gradations with a dual scale that measures both inches (up to 6 inches) and millimeters (up to 150 mm).

Site Selection

Correct placement of the rain gauge in your yard is critical. The rain gauge should be placed outdoors in an area to avoid wind, such as on a fence. Large objects, such as buildings and trees, can block the rain from getting to the gauge. Install the rain gauge no closer in distance than the height of the surrounding objects.

Installing the Gauge

Simply mount the gauge on a stable, flat, level surface, like a fence, deck rail, or post. To install the gauge, use at least two screws (not provided) to secure the mounting plate. Simply slide the rain gauge onto the mounting plate. Check to ensure that gauge is level.

Maintenance

Remove gauge from mounting bracket to empty out any debris. The rain gauge may be gently washed with soap and water. Do not allow water inside of gauge to freeze.

The OUTWEST TRADING Professional Rain Gauge is virtually indestructible, it's UV resistant, non-yellowing, and won't rust. If you're looking for a tough and accurate rain gauge, this is the one to buy!
