Do you have to mount this unit near the main shut off or can you mount it in any free spot?

i mounted mine to the bottom of my service panel. it shouldn't be placed too far away from it. i don't recall specific instructions.

See this link for manufacturers installation instructions-http://www.intermatic.com/~/media/Intermatic/Documentation/Surge%20Protective%20Devices/IG%20Series/IG1240RC3%20Instructions.ashxThe main thing is to keep the wire leads as short and straight as possible. In an ideal situation mounting it as close to the main breaker as possible (like in the diagram) using the nearest pair of breakers is likely best but if not possible using anotherpair on the main bus should be satisfactory. I had to do mine that way due to spacing and wiring constraints.

This device MUST be mounted within inches of the breaker box for best protection. Each extra inch delays protection against lightning surges. This has to do with how far the electrical surge travels within picsoseconds or nanoseconds. For example, my unit is mounted within two inches of the breaker panel.

Yes, you remove it and hook it on the wall mounting bracket out of the way.

No you don't have to mount it. I would just recommend putting the heaviest bins on the bottom to anchor it down.

That's the way I installed mine, beneath the dinette seat, only a few inches from the pump. I did build a wood mount, & secured the tank w/ a bent length of all-thread rod, cushioned by a left over piece of water line tubing. It works just fine, although I didn't install a shut-off/isolation valve.

I didn't mount it, I have it in a closet plugged into the nearest outlet. You will love it!

The only place you can store the remote is on the Skylink WE-318 Wall Switch Receiver which means it has to be with the wall switch you are trying to turn off/on remotely. No other type of mounting bracket available.

No, it does not have a dedicated off position, but if it's in your garage a setting of -23 is pretty much off. I just unplug mine if I'm around to monitor my heater.

It could be taken down off wall mount, but it is clear that is not the intended use. I really like the unit and find it very handy as a garage appliance. Quality is good, with exception of hose itself which is clearly of much lower quality than unit itself.

If you buy the plug-in version you can move it any where you like. You just have to install the mounting clips again or the unit will not turn on. It's a safety switch.

Yes it comes with it off so you can leave it off. You just have to buy a mounting bracket.

You would want to set it up when you want to use it. Once the mount is up, it sets up in couple seconds. I wouldn't leave it out all the time. Even the morning dew would gradually eat away at the motor.

I just opened the top window and put the unit on the sill and closed the window with the lip behind the pane of window and plugged it in and enjoyed a cool summer. I don't see a need for a mount of any sort.

The unit comes without installation instructions. There are instructional videos on Youtube on how to mount the unit at the following link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INL9RVTlLr4

I mounted mine on it's side along the frame of my truck. I positioned it close to a body mount bracket to reduce the water that may splash into the intake part of the compressor. It's loud though try to isolate it the best you can.

Not if you have an outlet. If there's no outlet then run an extension cord or have an electrician put in an outlet close to the location you wish to mount the fan.

I love the mount and it can be very secure. You may have to press down hard on the turned down end of the rail to disengage the rail, and then pull the unit away along the rail.Cheers, Tom

You can mount it at any angle. You only need to open the screw slightly to break the circuit. It is a battery saver to say the least especially if you leave your vehicle parked for long periods.
