Are you looking for the best place to buy a barometer in Australia? When it comes to selecting barometers and weatherstations for the Australian climate there are a few things you need to consider before you buy.

1. Buy a barometer in Australia made of high quality materials.

There is a reason why antique barometers are so popular - it's because a barometer made from high-quality materials is going to last a lot longer than something cheap and electronic from China. We have searched around the world for quality barometers and found a supplier in Germany called Fischer who have been engineering amazing weather instruments for over 100 years. The Fischer factory makes the highest quality barometers in the world.

2. Check the Measurement on your barometer before you buy.

What weather measurements are you interested in seeing? Would you like to know the current inside temperature? Would you like to know if it's going to rain? Or if you should take your sunscreen? Are you interested in knowing how damp your home is and if it is affecting your health?

If you only want to know about weather changes, then a barometer is for you. But if you are interested in these other readings, make sure you check out our selection of weatherstations. 

NOTE:

Here in the Southern Hemisphere, we measure degrees in Celsius, not Fahrenheit. So it is helpful to make sure if you choose a barometer with a thermometer that it takes readings in degrees Celsius (or C & F)

While the products we sell are from Germany all the writing on your barometer will be in English when it arrives. You may see some of our photos we received from our German Suppliers have German writing on them. All our weather stations are labelled in English.

3. How quickly will a barometer ship to Australia?

Here at Barometers and Clocks we can ship to Australia in as little as 3 days. We pride ourselves on selling only top end barometers to our Australia and New Zealand customers (although we can ship all over the world).

We have established a very good relationship with NZ Post couriers and Australian Post couriers using their eship service. This offers a track and trace service which automatically updates you as your parcel travels along and provides excellent insurance on any lost items.Be assured that we have sent over 1000 climate instruments to Australia and have been told numerous times that our service is better than interstate couriers within Australia.

 4. Antique Barometers or Modern Barometers

Whatever their style - we have an elegant barometer to suit. Fischer is also known for creating antique looking barometers as well as stylish modern barometers. Perfect for any gift and especially good for a man’s Christmas gift.

5. Is it for use on a boat or at home?

Not only do we stock beautiful solutions for your home or office, we also have a number of nautical barometers which can be used to keep you safe at sea. These are chrome, brass and water friendly devices to help you predict changes in the weather so you can alter your sailing, fishing or travel plans accordingly.

7. Do you want a Barometer or a Weatherstation Combo?

You can either purchase a barometer on its own or in combination with other weather tools like a thermometer to measure temperature in the house, a tide clock that tells you the best times to go out fishing or have a surf, or a hygrometer which tells you how damp your home is.
