Remote home temperature monitoring
We have a second home that, from time to time, suffers a heating problem.
We'd like to install something that would monitor the air temperature, and if it fell below a certain level, would call a pre-programmed number. I've seen devices you call into, but that will not work as the phone there has voice mail on it. As an alternative, are there any devices that can monitor a home and can provide continuous reporting via the internet? Thanks |

Many home security systems will take care of this as well as flooded basements etc. -- Joseph Meehan 26 + 6 = 1 It's Irish Math |
