The East Coast is no stranger to weather extremes – hot summers, cold winters and unpredictable seasons in between. In either scenario, temperature monitoring can give you peace of mind while you’re away from home. How does it work, you ask?

Temperature monitoring allows your system to notify you when the temperature rises or falls beyond a certain degree. If your home heating system fails to kick on or a power outage prevents it from doing so, your security system will send a signal to the central station as soon as the temperature falls below the degree that has been pre programmed.

An operator at the station will notify you immediately of the situation, so you can make arrangements to send a person you trust to your home or business. This is the key to preventing water damage from freezing pipes. For our Total Connect customers, you can receive instant notification of temperature monitoring via email to your mobile device or office computer.

Temperature monitoring can be a valuable investment for business owners as well. Our commercial customers use this service to ensure that freezer temperatures stay within a safe, appropriate range. If a freezer shuts off during a power outage, the business owner can be made aware of the problem so that he or she can quickly save perishables before it’s too late. This small investment can prevent thousands of dollars of damage and give you the peace of mind you deserve.
