Weatherproof Security Cameras
Surveillance Systems With Weatherproof Cameras
A camera's ability to withstand exposure to the elements is measured by its Ingress Protection Rating (IP Rating). The IP rating (a two digit number with 69 being the maximum possible protection) of an outdoor camera will tell how secure your camera is from different weather situations. Weatherproofing protects your security cameras from things like harsh winds, rain, dust, dirt, ice, snow, and other factors. When using cameras outdoors, or even in harsh indoor environments, be sure your cameras are protected with the necessary housings, heaters, and blowers to keep them safe and running for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions For Weatherproof Cameras
Are all cameras weatherproof?
No, not all cameras are weatherproof. Some cameras are not built with weatherproof casing and are meant to be used indoors where they aren't exposed to moisture, dirt, and other debris. While a weatherproof or indoor camera may have the same features they do not have the same case and that it what defines the difference between the two.
What are IP ratings?
An IP rating simply tells you how resistant a camera is to things like dust and water along with how much of each the camera can withstand. IP ratings vary from IP-00 all the way to IP-68. For more conclusive information on what an IP rating is and how to read it be sure to check our blog on camera IP ratings.
Can weatherproof cameras provide clear images despite harsh weather?
This is entirely dependent on the camera you buy and who you buy it from. Some cameras and brands offer software and technology that will allow your camera to see clearly past heavy rain or provide a stable image in high winds. However, not all weatherproof cameras have this and if you are looking for cameras with higher-end software be sure to contact our specialists at Camera Security Now and let us help you find the perfect camera.
