Freezer Alarm
Hi SimpliSafe,
Please consider adding freezer alarms to your device offerings. I have a chest freezer full of meat and last summer I lost hundreds of dollars of meat due to a tripped breaker servicing the freezer and I didn't discover it until days later. I currently have cheap digital alarm attached to it but it would be great if I could have a device connected to the SimpliSafe system to notify me if the freezer goes above a set temperature. I imagine this would be popular as many people have an extra freezer/fridge that they don't necessarily check daily.
Thanks!

This would also be an invaluable quality-adding device that would certainly attract subscribers and keep existing subscribers.

The solution is obviously SimpliSafe, as the company already has access to a system of remote notifications and has me paying a recurring subscription fee. I don't want to re-purpose the SimpliSafe Temperature Sensor as a makeshift freezer alarm, as others have suggested. I want a dedicated freezer alarm integrated into my SimpliSafe system. This could not be that difficult, and I expect that it would give SimpliSafe as a company an advantage in marketing over companies like ADT who do not appear to have a freezer alarm as of yet.
I am open to suggestions, but I believe SimpliSafe would be much better off with a freezer alarm as part of their lineup.

Hi all, I have a Gen3 system installed at my second home. On a recent visit I was greeted by a awful smell and mess due to a failed refrig/freezer compressor. In addition to the smell and mess I lost all the contents of the freezer, which although was not a serious loss, could have been avoided if I had been alerted to the failure quickly enough. Wondering if SimpliSafe may have a solution to this, such as perhaps a sensor that would work opposite of the Low Temp Alarm? Or if anyone may have a thought? Thank you

Reviving an old discussion. It’s now late 2023 and still no specific monitor for freezers/refrigerators. Come on SimpliSafe…your customers need this functionality!! Why is it so difficult to develop a sensor specific to this?

A number of systems have remote freezer monitors that easily communicate through the fridge/freezer so it should not be an issue for simplisafe to do the same

I put my sensor in the fridge and it works, but my fridge is close to the base station.

Will 2024 be the year that Simplisafe adds this solution?

Please consider a power loss alarm. The problem with the freezer is that it loses power due to GFCI tripping during thunderstorms. By the time it gets warm in there, it's already too late. I don't ever want to turn it off, so no need for a power switch. But a pass through power outlet would be great. Continuing with the temperature sensor freezer alarm, it may need a remote wire so that the sender unit is outside the metal enclosure of the freezer.
