Key Points of Installation

Installation

The Smart Flood/Freeze sensor is designed for indoor use only. Place the sensor (typically in battery power mode) near the area of potential leaks or water source – sinks, commodes, dishwashers, washing machines, hot-water tanks, etc. The sensor can be placed on the floor, cabinet base, etc. to allow the three pins on the bottom to contact with the water leak.

  • The contact pins are recessed so they do not contact the surface (see figure 1).
  •  The sensor can be safely placed onto a metal surface without activating the sensor. Mounting tape (included) can be applied to the bottom of the sensor for secure placement (see figure 2).
  •  For hard-to-reach locations, use the mounting tape to attach the sensor to the wall. Open the sensor port to insert the detachable probe (see figure 3). Secure into position with the pins pointed down using smaller mounting tape (included) (see figure 4).
  • The contact pins are slightly recessed so they do not contact the surface (see figure 5).

Testing Leak Sensor

In the Installer App, click on the leak sensor after it is paired and click “Enable Alerts”.  Then apply a damp cloth to the sensor.  If done correctly you will hear a beep indicating that water has been detected.  In the Installer App, the leak sensor will switch from “Dry” to “Wet”.
