MySpool Water and Temperature Alert is a smart device that sends an alert when water is detected or temperature exceeds high or low thresholds. Text and/or email alerts are sent when water is detected, email notifications are sent when temperature exceeds high or low thresholds. Data collection mode for temperature data can send values to a ThingSpeak channel if configured. This device comes with an extra long 6 ft power cord and two hardened sensors: a water sensor with a 5 ft wire and a temperature sensor with a 3 ft wire. High quality moisture sensor with nickel plated surface for corrosion resistance is designed for multi use: just wipe it dry and use it again. High quality waterproof temperature sensor has a temperature range from -55°C to +125°C (-67°F to +257°F), with accuracy of 0.5°C over recommended range of -10°C to +85°C.
The alert that MySpool cloud sends is a message, either via email or text, or both. Optionally, this device can also send you push notifications. Water Alerts are repeated every few minutes until the sensor is dry.
Water and Temperature Alert is configured to use your WiFi. The WiFi setup takes a few minutes with a smart phone or a laptop. Once your Water and Temperature Alert has been setup, your email address and phone number need to be specified on the myspool.com device configuration page. That page, as well as other user pages displaying device status and recent alerts, are in a secure user area on myspool.com. That area is also used for configuring settings such as text message content and hours of operation. It is accessible to owners of MySpool devices.
When setup has been completed, any time water is detected, an email will be sent to you. If configured, you will also get a text message and a push notification.
MySpool Central Monitoring Service for this device is included free of charge. This service runs on our cloud servers. In case WATER Alert misses a scheduled daily check-in, device owner will be notified via email that there is an issue. There will also be a follow-up notification when it comes back online.
