Featured Product: Sensaphone 400

This is an advanced yet easy-to-use system that allows you to set your own temperature alarm points, reads you the exact temperature over the phone during an alarm or at any time that you call in, and can accept additional wired temperature or environmental (flood, humidity, smoke, intrusion, etc.) sensors. You can even add a remote setback thermostat to the Sensaphone.

Remote Thermostat Control

Remote thermostat control is great for vacation homes. Imagine arriving at a toasty-warm ski cabin or a blissfully-cool summer home.

Featured Product: BayWeb Internet Thermostat

The BayWeb thermostat will allow you to remotely control temperature over the internet, giving you the ability to change the temperature to any degree point (between 35 and 90 degrees F) at any time. You can also log on to check room temperature at each thermostat at any time, as well as receive alerts by email or text message indicating that the temperature in the house has gone out of bounds. You can even add wireless motion sensors for occupancy-based control, or security monitoring. The unit also has one wired input for other sensors, such as water detectors. The BayWeb also offers a keypad lock option and a limiting option that allows you to determine your own minimum and maximum temperature that is allowed by the keypad.

Water Damage Control
With a vacation property, it's often not enough to simply be alerted of water damage. It's much better to stop it!

Featured Product: FloodStop Automatic Shutoff Valves

FloodStop Automatic Shutoff Valves utilize water sensors to trigger the closing of a motorized ball valve upon a leak. This product not only stops the flood, it can alert you through an autodialer as well.

Intrusion
Burglars know that vacation home communities are frequently vacant and often do not have a security system. Prove them wrong and install your own burglar alarm system that will sound a piercing siren as well as call multiple phone numbers of your choice upon intrusion.
