The team behind the Roost smart smoke alarm and the Roost smart smoke-alarm battery announced on Wednesday the Roost Smart Water and Freeze Detector, a $50 sensor that will detect the presence of water, extreme temperature, and high humidity in your home. The device will send a push notification to your smartphone if any of those parameters get out of whack, so you can take action to prevent or reduce water and/or mildew damage.
“The Roost Smart Water and Freeze Detector complements the home peace-of-mind and safety story that we started with the Roost smoke-alarm battery,” Roost’s Chief Marketing Officer David Henry said in an interview earlier this week.
