It will work with existing wires but based on my experience you need to use a mechanical chime and not the digital ones. The digital ones never stop ringing or doesn't ring at all.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If your doorbell is a traditional style it has low voltage at the button (two wires) and a small transformer in the garage (sometimes in a closet) then yes on both counts.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you use the existing door bell wires and chime for the new doorbell cam. You also have to hook up a chime buffer in the chime box during installation.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it will. Just use the existing doorbell wires. The wires that run to the doorbell are low voltage and can be very fragile especially if they have some age on them. Remember, although they are covered by a doorbell, they are still exposed to the weather elements and can become brittle and crack over time. When I installed both of mine, I pulled some more wire out and trim it back to fresh, clean wire. Great product. I love it.
