comparative data for a region or a specic location. However, be very careful when
relying only on this information as such data quite often tends to be measured at
very high altitudes and may not be useful at lower and more practical heights.

and far removed in proximity to trees and other adjacent buildings or structures.

There are several options for the installation of the HONEYWELL™ Wind Turbine.
The turbine may be installed using a pole, a QUADPOD™ Mount on a at roof with a
ballast or a QUADPOD™ Mount on a pitched roof with a ROOFBOX™ Mount. These
are described in the next section.
Building codes and installation requirements vary considerably between various
townships, cities, states and countries. Make sure that all required local permits are
obtained BEFORE beginning installation. In all cases installation must be conducted
by a licensed and trained professional contractor and electrician. In some locations the
local electric utility may have strict regulations about renewable energy technologies
such as this wind turbine and other interconnect agreements and therefore it is highly
recommended that they are also contacted BEFORE installation.
