There are a lot of times when security cameras are just thrown up in an outdoor environment without any protection and end up dying much sooner than they should. These cameras aren’t always weatherproof, so most of the time this can be avoided by spending $20-$30 on a decent security camera housing that will protect and greatly improve the lifespan of the CCTV camera.
Of course, once you purchase the camera housing and the rest of your surveillance equipment, you’ll need to install the cameras in the enclosure. We have put together a quick, thorough instructional video that details this installation process, so check out the video below and let us know what you think!

This video was nicely done. I struggled my first time with a box camera in a heater/blower housing, but this video outlines what to do very well!

Thanks for posting that Robert. We appreciate it. It’s a simple thing to overlook doing correctly, and wind up back at a customer’s site, burning time and money over.

The only thing to be carefull of is to make sure the housing which is 24 Volt AC and the camera are the same. Alot of cameras are 12Volt DC.
