Weather Direct® is Green
We are doing our part to keep our planet healthy by eliminating our paper
manuals, saving trees in the process. Not only are we reducing the amount of
paper, but we are also trying to help you save space in your desk drawer, file
cabinet or box in the basement where all these pesky manuals end up. Now you
can print only the pages from this manual that you need… or not print any at all if
you find what you are looking for online.
