# 1.Selection of the mounting site

\
Selection of the mounting site is crucial: the location must ensure unobstructed air flow for accurate air sampling, be accessible to adequate sunlight if solar power is used, and minimize exposure to localized interference, such as direct heat sources, mechanical ventilation exhaust, or excessive precipitation runoff.\
\
Once the appropriate location is determined, the pole/wall mounting bracket must be secured firmly. Subsequently, the Sensorbee Air Pro 2 unit is attached to the bracket, confirming that the orientation optimizes both air quality measurement and, where applicable, solar panel efficiency.
