It doesn’t take a deep freeze for pipes to become a problem. Even a modest temperature dip can lead to pipe damage, major repairs, and serious expenses. Water and freeze-related damages in the U.S. average $15,400 in damages, and that’s before you factor in the time, stress, and cleanup that come with this kind of event.
In fact, frozen pipe damage is one of winter’s most costly losses. Each winter, water damage and freeze-related incidents cost insurers in the U.S. more than $15 billion.
That’s why we’re putting the same proven technology that’s helped prevent tens of thousands of potentially devastating fires to work against frozen pipes. Frozen pipe prevention with Ting delivers early alerts and step-by-step guidance so you can stay ahead of freezing risk before it causes damage.
Using in-home temperature sensing and power outage awareness, Ting alerts you when your pipes are at risk of freezing and guides you, step by step, through how to prevent damage.
How Ting Helps Prevent Frozen Pipe Damage Before It Starts
Ting’s frozen pipe prevention both detects frozen pipe risk and provides in-app, step-by-step guidance on what you can do to avoid damage. Here’s how:
- Low indoor temperatures: Using the Ting sensor’s built-in temperature sensing, homeowners will get an alert when indoor temperatures drop below 42°F, well before freezing occurs. The app then offers step-by-step guidance for how to take preventative action.
- Power outages and freezing weather: Even if your Ting sensor goes offline, you’ll still get an alert if your pipes are at risk of freezing. Using Ting’s exclusive hyper-local, real-time power outage intelligence, Ting can reliably notify you when freezing outdoor temperatures line up with a community outage. Then the Ting app walks you through clear, step-by-step prevention so you can act fast and avoid costly damage.
With or without power, Ting guides you through the situation, providing instructions through the Ting app. Each step, from turning up the thermostat to shutting off the water, is designed to reduce risk and help protect your home.
Proven Prevention for Every Season
Ting has helped prevent over 21,000 potentially devastating fires. Now, we’re expanding from fire to freeze to help protect families and homes from water damage caused by frozen pipes.
