FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions):
Are green laser levels better than red laser levels?
In general, green laser levels are preferable over red laser levels due to their greater visibility, particularly in brighter situations and at greater distances. However, it’s not as relevant when working outdoors such as construction sites.
Can laser levels be used outdoors?
Laser levels can be used outdoors with the help of a laser detector (receiver). It's common to use a laser detector (receiver) to pick up the laser beam even if it's not visible to the naked eye. The detector provides an audible or visual signal when it aligns with the beam.
How often do I need to get a laser level calibrated?
Proper laser calibration is essential for the continued accuracy of a laser level. Construction sites may also require a laser level to be calibrated prior to use, so it’s important to check the job site requirements. If a laser is used daily, a 6-month calibration interval is recommended. If the laser is used only a few times a week, getting the unit checked every year is recommended. If the laser takes an impact, such as being dropped on the ground, we recommend checking the calibration immediately afterwards.
