CHOOSING A LOCATION
When choosing a location to install the system, select an area with enough room to remove

power supply is located and where the nearest drain is located. Do not install system in direct
sunlight, high intensity lights or subject the system to temperature extremes (see operating
limits chart) and/or excess humidity. The Hydroid system should be secured in compliance with
state and local regulations.
