Does your Keypad look like the one pictured to the left? Then you're in the right place! You've got the Original SimpliSafe system. If you purchased a new system in 2018 or later, you likely have the Gen 3 SimpliSafe. Click here for the article for the Gen 3 SimpliSafe. If you're not certain which system you have, you can tell the difference here.
The Temperature/Freeze Sensor triggers an alarm when your home’s temperature goes above or below the temperature range that you set. If the Temperature/Freeze Sensor detects temperatures outside of the designated range your Base Station will sound the alarm. If you are subscribed to professional monitoring you will also receive a call from the monitoring company as well informing you of the change in temperature.
To install your Temperature/Freeze Sensor remove the white battery activation strip hanging from the battery compartment. Next, remove the liner from the adhesive strip located on the Sensor’s bracket, and adhere it to the wall. Press and hold the Sensor for 30 seconds to ensure it is firmly attached to the wall. If you would prefer a more secure installation of your Temperature/Freeze Sensor slide it up off of its bracket and use the included screws to permanently attach the bracket to a surface. Once you have finished, slide the Sensor back on to it’s bracket, and it is installed.
We recommend installing your Temperature/Freeze Sensor near the thermostat, so that it can keep tabs on the temperature in your home, or near plumbing that is prone to freezing.
If you are installing a new Temperature/Freeze Sensor to an existing system it can be added through your Keypad, or the Easy Setup Wizard. View this page for additional information.
