Keep pumps and pipes in check with this Samsung SmartThings water leak sensor. It sends notifications to your smartphone when excess water is detected, and its audible alert lets you know when there's unwanted presence of moisture. Place this Samsung SmartThings water leak sensor near your sump pump to detect pump failure.
A: You can buy replaceable batteries for this unit. You can see the battery status in Smartthings.
A: I'm using this sensor with the plain smartthings hub, not the ADT one. You can set it to send alerts when a certain temp is reached.
A: If you are using SmartThings, when you are setting up your leak settings in the smart home monitor (classic app), click on “alert with siren” and check the box next to the siren you have. If you don’t have one, any z-wave siren will need to be added into the hub prior to linking the sensors.
A: Hello! You can absolutely create a temperature notification within the SmartThings App using the Water Leak Sensor in a custom automation. You select the temperature threshold, as well as the message that is sent if the threshold is hit. If you have a compatible audio device connected to the system, you can also program an audio notification. Thank you! ~Samsung Brand Ambassador
