 Thermometer Hygrometer, Thermometer, Outdoor Thermometer, Hygrometer, Digital Hygrometers
Temperature humidity sensors, often combined into one instrument on home weather stations (thermometer hygrometer), should not be sited in direct sunlight unless they are adequately protected by a solar radiation shield or placed inside a ventilated weather measurement tools housing.
If that is not an option, the thermometer hygrometer sensors should be installed in a shaded location (such as the north side of a structure) and protected from rainfall (under the eaves but not too close to the roof is a compromise).
If at all possible, keep the thermometer hygrometer away local sources of heating and cooling, and from nearby obstructions by a distance of at least four times their height.
