B-hyve Wi-Fi Water Leak Detector

Welcome to B-hyve™
Water intrusion in the home causes extensive damage unless it is caught right away. The B-hyve™ Flood Sensor offers peace of mind and protection by alerting your phone immediately when a leak in your home is detected.

1. Open the B-hyve™ App
   Log into your B-hyve account and tap “My B-hyve”. Go to “devices” then “add device”. The app will walk you through the rest of the process.
   **** For new users, search apps for “B-hyve” and download the free Android or iOS app. Create an account to begin setup.

2. Power and Pair Gen 2 Hub
   Plug the hub into an indoor outlet, central to sensor locations, and within range of Wi-Fi. Press B button five times to reset the hub and enter into pairing mode. Your hub will flash red, then blue to signify it is in pairing mode.

3. Power and Pair Sensor
   Remove the pull tab to activate the battery, your sensor is now in pairing mode.
   **** If at any time you need to re-pair, quickly press the B on the back of the sensor 5 times.
   Sensors include one Lithium CR2032 battery. Annual battery replacement is recommended for optimal performance. See the “Replacing the Battery” section for instructions.

4. Select Sensor Location
   Place the sensor in an indoor location within range of your hub. Range is approximately 150 ft. (45m), walls and other interference can reduce this range. Position the retrieval cord for easy extraction when placing a sensor beneath heavy objects.
   If using as a water sensor:
   •Place the sensor flat on the floor in the area you wish to monitor.
   •Ensure that the flood sensor is positioned with its flat surface faced down.
   If using as a heat/cold sensor:
   •Place in the location where you wish to detect changes in temperatures.
   •Avoid areas where inconsistent temperatures are common. (near vents, exhausts, etc.)

**** The sensor communicates with the hub via Bluetooth™; the range between the sensor and hub will vary depending on the number of walls and types of obstacles the signal needs to travel through.

**** If water is detected or there is a temperature fluctuation, a beep will play and a notification will be displayed on your phone.

**** Avoid areas where the signal must travel through  dirt or thick steel barriers.

5. Complete Setup
   Continue to follow the instruction within the app to complete the setup process.
