Tubular tilt-up towers are recommended for their ease of installation. In fact, the tower can be assembled and sensors mounted and serviced at ground level. Also, minimal ground preparations is required and you dont need an easy access road to be able to install the tower at site since all material needed can be transport by ATVs or any small off-road vehicle. There is no need for expensive concrete base and no crane is required to erect tower. Finally, a tubular tower system cost less than lattice tower.
