Service and Recommended Maintenance

Calibrations are free for the original owner forever. During the 3 year warranty a complete checkup is also performed for no charge except shipping.

AC2 Clock Battery Replacement should be done every 5 years. Cost is $55 plus shipping, or free if included in a complete checkup ($175). Batteries older than 8 years may leak.

After the warranty, and for racers who purchased a used weatherstation, a complete checkup and service is $175 plus shipping, and includes battery replacement (AC2).

Non-warranty repairs are $90 per hour plus parts and shipping.

If you are considering purchasing a secondhand weatherstation we recommend sending it in for a complete checkup. We can advise you on any repairs needed or upgrades available. Many of our weatherstations are in excellent working order 13 or more years after original purchase.
