Does it work in the winter when weather is below freezing?

Mine won't because I have mine run through an uninsulated, unprotected water hose - I expect that if water can reach the Lixit it will work just fine. My guess is that unless you have a heated exterior faucet or live in a part of the country that stays below freezing most of the winter, this will be more of a warm weather / warm day solution.

We take it off because we turn off our outside faucets when freezing begins.

It depends on how cold the day is. I wouldn't count on it in the winter. In the summer it works great.

I don't think so, only when it's below freezing. Plug it in outside & as soon as it gets cold you'll know for sure if it's working. Great item for my feral porch kitties

Not that we know of. We live in NC, so we don't get below zero temps. But, it worked perfectly when we were down to 10 degrees.

I would have to believe this doorbell would work in cold weather. I am sure the company has thought through on the elements. Over time, in any kind of weather either with the cold or the heat the doorbell will be effected. Sun shining on it .... bitter cold attacking it .... will cause something to happen.

they work great under all conditions. I have used them outdoors in the winter time with no problem.

yes it does, also its not sensitive to the cold. it was out in a car overnight when the temp had plunged to -15 and it turned right on when needed.

Hi..unfortunately I just purchased this and have not had our winter as of yet. I would not feel comfortable assuming how it will do.

Bill - we have used it in cold weather with very good results (32 degrees and above), but not sure about performance in sub zero weather. Sorry we couldn't be of more help. Have you called the manufacturer for input?

It depends on the the tempature. If it's really cold like it has been it doesn't work(like below zero) & you will have to use a snow rake. If it is hovering at 32 degrees or above it works fine.

I have used mine in temperatures as low as 20 below zero (for a string of 5 days) and it functioned flawlessly. The one draw back is the battery life is somewhat reduced by the cold temps. Hope this helps.

I have one in the garage and it works great out there. In Michigan we have very cold weather.

I've never had this happen, and I've used it at temperatures below zero. But, I suppose it depends. If you're using it in the Arctic or Antarctic, then it probably would freeze some what. I bet if you're not out too long it would work at temperatures around -10C to -15C for a long time. Colder than that, and it might begin to freeze over a bit. I would check out the manufacturer's specifications and make sure that whatever temperature you plan to use it in is within the spec range.

Yes you can use it outside in the winter we leave ours out all winter and they still work.

I have not used outside in cold. but I'm sure if it was under a tent it would be fine or if not It runs on batteries so all good just don't get batteries wet. good luck!! I'm going to try the cold :) :)

No.(I have an alarm system) The freeze alarm just dials out the prerecorded message when it drops below the default temp. If you shut down your house for the winter and go on the seasonal plan with your phone company or cable co. (get incoming calls but no out going ones) neither the freeze alarm or the security system will work. If you tell them you have an alarm system they will usually allow the outgoing calls at the seasonal rate.It is usually a good idea to test the the freeze alarm by putting outside the window on a cold day . i can't say enough good things about this product. It's not that expensive and works well. hope this helps. No.(I have an alarm system) The freeze alarm just dials out the prerecorded message when it drops below the default temp.

If you mean, will it keep you warm when the temperature is below freezing, the answer is yes. Wear them under your regular clothing and use appropriate cold weather gear when outdoors.
