Taylor Precision Products 5293501 Silicone Rain Gauge

Product Description

The TAYLOR PRECISION PRODUCTS 5293501 is a silicone rain and sprinkler gauge designed for outdoor weather monitoring in residential and light commercial settings. Built from weather-resistant silicone and plastic, it measures rainfall and sprinkler output up to 7 inches of accumulation. The silicone construction resists cracking in extreme cold temperatures, making it suitable for year-round outdoor use. A tapered edge stake attachment allows for straightforward ground mounting without additional hardware. Overall height is 12 inches. Landscape contractors, irrigation technicians, and property maintenance professionals commonly use this type of gauge to verify sprinkler coverage and track precipitation levels.

This gauge is suited for placement in lawns, garden beds, and turf areas where measuring rainfall or irrigation output is needed. The stake-mount design makes it easy to reposition between zones or service calls. It is appropriate for any outdoor environment where temperature extremes could degrade standard plastic gauges, including northern climates with hard freezes.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no tools — press the tapered stake directly into soil in an open area away from obstructions that could deflect rainfall. Place the gauge level and in a location that receives full exposure to precipitation for accurate measurement. Periodically check that the stake remains firmly seated after ground freeze-thaw cycles. No electrical shutoff or code compliance is required for installation.
