Any recommendations on wind screen to use? The one answer was deleted by Amazon. Thanks

Commercialy available wind screens or any loosely woven furry material from a thrift shop or store will do. Should experiment for your specific conditions. If you are lucky maybe a toy animal with a TAIL the right size will show up, if not a little sewing of loose, fluffy, furry material will fit the microphone. Trade-Off between volume loss and wind noise suppression with different materials and wind velocity. Different suppressors for different conditions if you want to have a "wind kit" of several items for ready use. Some that go on top of each other for extreme cases. It's sort of an art more than a science. Commercialy available wind screens or any loosely woven furry material from a thrift shop or store will do. Should experiment for your specific conditions.

I have not had problems with wind on my unit. Will lose reception due to rain or snow, but that's a symptom of satellite TV. Could your unit not be anchored well, i.e., not correctly mounted or could your roof be flexing or rig move as others suggested as possibility, or could there be leaves or limbs blowing to impact the view of the satellites?

I deferred your question to my wife, who does the majority of our grilling. Her reply was that she has noticed no issues with the wind cooling the temperature and so far, we have not had an issue with the wind blowing out the flame, even without any type of wind screen.

No windscreen provided, but it's never been an issue for me. The flame is very powerful, it would have to be a very strong wind to put it out.

I believe the progray is what you want. I have the progray and it is simply amazing! I was using blackout cloth and there is no comparison. On Carl's site he breaks down which screen is best for what situation. I am truly impressed by my selection, it is a High quality screen. Best investment I made apart from my projector. Will definitely see Carl again if the need arises.Good luck

There is no need to remove the screen with this unit, it's technically not a window unit, it's a portable. The hot air is simply expelled out the window through the hose. The window kit that comes with it worked perfectly for me. So bugs coming in aren't a worry :-)

Readjust your shield so wind deflects over your head. The shield is very adjustable. I have no such problem with mine

Although I have switched to a Rode external mic, I was able to eliminate wind noise from the internal mic by placing two layers of Blenderm tape over the mic. (one layer is enough if the wind isn't too bad) Blenderm is a very thin, clear medical tape. For what I was using the camera for, the tape did not drown out the sound at all but got rid of the wind noise. Having said that, switch to a Rode, you'll be glad you did.

Hi.. It would appear it is only a design function, i my self would avoid anything that could be effected by the wind etc. i would just stick with the tried and true, happy viewing.

I managed to fit the windscreen on a pulpit microphone with a 12" gooseneck although it did take some effort. The windscreen was marginally successful because our users were used to speaking closer to the older style mic that was in place prior to this. However, some success has been experienced by continuing the education of the users. Hope this helps. Jim

How is it secured to resist wind? Guidelines? Weights? Do either come with it and if not where are they available?

Impede clarity of screen? Didn't know such a thing was possible... only thing bad I can say about the screen coating is it needs Windex more often than I expected (that or it's just me being OCD about it)

I would recommend removing the current one, clean your screen with a soft cloth and screen cleaner. let dry and then install the BoxWave. I love mine, I clean it every once in awhile. great product.

We have had a spring with more than our share of high winds, so I am constantly closing my umbrella. There is no problem. With the screen staying up.

We are using this ac unit with our screens in with no issues. We use it in a couple different windows. This has been a great unit for us. As others have stated, make sure you have air flow.

Gregg, I didn't notice the picture you mentioned but I have owned two of these and neither had any storage of any kind. It is a very simple screen that somehow magically makes the wind not so annoying. Our first was stolen, so someone else liked it too!
