Mounting Sky directly above chimney?

Hi all,

I have a question regarding the mounting of the Sky. Is it OK to mount the Sky about 3 feet above this chimney outlet on a pole? Will the damp air output of the chimney affect data quality of the Sky?

Or should I find a better spot to place the Sky on my roof?

Sky doesn’t read humidity so that should not be a problem. What could is if the chimney ‘blows’ hard enough to alter wind around the sky … or if the air is ‘hot’ in cold periods as the warm air will go up around the sky and alter wind readings.

Except that … just see to it there is no vibration that can creep up the pole to the Sky. It is sensitive :slight_smile:

That looks more like a PVC vent pipe. Are you sure it’s a chimney?

Those chimneys are used in te netherlands for gas warming units gas means a mixture of ethan

I would not mount anything to that.

Something mounted to it could cause damage below the roof line and let unwanted gases into the house, which could kill people.
