About Ring
Ring LLC is a manufacturer of home security and smart home devices owned by Amazon. It manufactures a titular line of smart doorbells, home security cameras, and alarm systems.

Prevent water and ice damage at home.

Ring Flood & Freeze Sensor is a smart sensor for your Ring Alarm system. Place it anywhere you want to monitor for flooding or freezing conditions. On the bottom of the Sensor, you’ll see flood sensors that can tell when water is present. Inside, a temperature sensor keeps watch for dangerously low temperatures (around 40 ° F or 4.4 ° C). When either of these conditions occurs, the Ring app notifies you so you can take care of the issue.

blue for three seconds.Ring Alarm Flood and Freeze Sensor-fig 5

Note
If the Sensor does not pair successfully, the LED ring glows red. To try the pairing process again, remove and reinstall the battery inside the Sensor.

Place your Ring Flood and Freeze Sensor.
