At 12.5 inches in diameter, the Acu-Rite 01754 is a fine choice for medium to large rooms and spaces. It will look absolutely terrific on patios and decks and in summer homes, cabins, lodges, gazebos, and recreation rooms, especially in rooms or areas with other flora-and-fauna decor. In deepest winter, the scene on the Butterflies thermometer will remind you that it won't be long until spring and summer return. If I had a flower or lawn and garden-related business, I'd probably hang this thermometer on a wall there, too. The lush green vegetation and colorful flowers in the scene seem perfect for such an application.

The Butterflies thermometer is designed to hang on a wall or other vertical surface via two small screws (not included). While this thermometer is crafted from weather resistant materials, it is not sealed against moisture, and this must be taken into account when determining its location. It must be sheltered from precipitation. For accurate temperature readings, be sure to mount the thermometer where it will not be exposed to direct sunlight or other direct heat sources.

On the back of the thermometer's carton is information about Jim Hautman and other artists whose work graces the Acu-Rite Wildlife Collection. Below that is a center guide template for the screw holes. Please note the following: While the center guide template is oriented horizontally on the carton, you need to orient it vertically because this is how the hangers are oriented on the back of the thermometer.

The Acu-Rite 01754 Butterflies Analog Thermometer is proudly made in the USA.
