ACTIVITY LEVEL
1. If your chime is not active enough, make sure you are hanging it from the knot closer to the chime or you can tie another overhand knot close to that one. Do not hang from a hook or length of cord or chain. Also, you can use a bigger windcatcher. Mail the one you have back to us and we will send the next bigger size out at no charge.
2. If your chime is too active you can remove the windcatcher. If it is not active enough after removing the windcatcher, you can send your windcatcher in for exchange for a smaller windcatcher. You can also purchase any additional windcatcher on our website.
