Very interested in knowing type, Brand, Cost, etc of your freeze alarms.
Maybe CharlieT can you share info. about his? But also interested in others comments....

I have a Condo at the Lake, and sometimes we're not there from
time-to-time. I have thermostats set at 52-55 degrees, but want to know if temp drops below this setting.

Condo is heated by oil heat furnace, forced hot water. Two zones.

May have a problem with freeze alarm calling on phone line. I 'do not' have a conventional 'land line'. Using 'Magic Jack' for phone service, connected to my laptop computer. Phone service is delivered through VOIP (Voice over IP).

Can I still configure the freeze alarm, over this type of phone configuration ?
Oh, also, dumb question maybe.... If I loose power, then it comes back on, will my furnace automatically come back on also?I assume there is some type of switch connected to the furnace for that purpose ?

Thanks,
Bigdog

YES it will re-fire just as soon as power is turned on.
"I have never seen a unit that will operate without a land line connection" and if a cable system it needs a battery backup.
Best of luck with what you decided on and it does what you want it to.
