Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Prevent frozen pipes with this Basic FreezeAlarm (FA-B-CCA ) from Control Products. The Basic FreezeAlarm will call any telephone number when the temperature in a remote home or vacation property drops below 45 degrees. It plays a voice message warning of falling temperatures in the home well before the pipes freeze. It continues to call until the alarm is acknowledged. The unit automatically resets after alarm conditions have been corrected. There are no monitoring fees and installation takes only a few minutes. FreezeAlarms have been protecting homes and cabins and recommended by insurance companies for over 20 years.
From the Manufacturer
No more worrying about frozen pipes when the power goes out; the Basic Freeze Alarm integrates with your touch-tone telephone line to automatically leave a message on your mobile phone voicemail or answering machine when the indoor temperature has dropped below 45 degrees F (7°C). Powered by a 9 volt battery, it even works when the power is out. And, the FreezeAlarm won't interfere with voice mail or answering machines at home, so you'll still get all your messages. The unit continues to call the phone number until the alarm is acknowledged. Best of all, it installs in seconds.

Freeze Alarm,
This review is from: Control Products FA-B-CCA Basic FreezeAlarm (Tools & Home Improvement)
A great little device that I will count on to monitor our other home this winter. I emailed a question about using the device to the service center and had a response within a few hours (not bad for online support).

Basic FreezeAlarm basically just what I needed.,

This review is from: Control Products FA-B-CCA Basic FreezeAlarm (Tools & Home Improvement)
This alarm doesn't do much, but it does just what I needed. We have a second home which is unoccupied much of the year, but which we leave heated to 55 deg. Here in New England the temperature can get down pretty low. The town actually requires us to keep the water on at least a trickle all year, because the water lines can end up below the freeze line. All I needed to do was plug the unit into an open phone jack, key in my cell number and hit the test button. My cell rang a couple of seconds later an I got a recorded message saying there was a temperature problem at the house. There is a battery backup in case the power goes out so the FreezeAlarm can still call out.
Other units, which cost quite a bit more, will call to more than one number and even turn up the heat before you arrive. This seemed like overkill to me so we got the basic unit. It keeps calling the programed number every two hours (though there is an option to do it more frequently) until the phone is answered. They give you an option to "really" test the unit, by placing it in a refrigerator. Doing that might expose the unit to damaging condensation, so I didn't try.

inexpensive and does what it says it will,

This review is from: Control Products FA-B-CCA Basic FreezeAlarm (Tools & Home Improvement)
for a bare bones freeze alert unit, this one is excellent. I tested it to see if it would sense the cold temperature outside (was in the 30's); it worked and called the number I'd programmed. I think it needs a longer than one minute send time for its message. I had it call my cell phone and I needed to change the number of rings and the length of my cell message to assure I'd get the alarm call. (Or keep the phone off which wasn't always practical.) Other than that, it was just what I needed for the price. Customer/tech support was fine, too. At $[...] rebate it was a very good deal.
