Installing Flood/Freeze Sensor

Place the Flood/Freeze sensor in the desired area as per the recommendations listed above with the four copper contacts facing down.

Using Flood/Freeze Sensor

The Flood/Freeze sensor is designed to detect pooling water as it makes contact across the copper contacts on the bottom of the sensor. It also detects temperatures below 41 degrees that could cause water pipes to burst. These features are designed to provide early detection in the case of a water leak or freezing temperatures.
