What is the ideal installation location for a Mini-Clik?
The Mini-Clik should be mounted where it will be exposed to unobstructed rainfall, but not in the path of sprinkler spray. It is typically installed near the roof line on the side of a building. If vandalism is not a threat, the Mini-Clik can be mounted lower on a fence post or deck railing. Be certain that trees, overhangs and awnings are not blocking direct rainfall onto the Mini-Clik. The closer the Mini-Clik is to the controller, the shorter the wire run will be. This will also reduce the chance for wire breaks. Mounting the Mini-Clik in a very sunny, southern end of a building may cause the Mini-Clik to dry out sooner than desired. Similarly, mounting on the northern end of a building with constant shade may keep the Mini-Clik from drying soon enough. Some experimentation and use of the “vent ring” will usually yield satisfactory results.
