Home Protection with Temperature & Water Monitoring

by | Dec 22, 2014 | Blog

Living in the Midwest, we’re no strangers to the extreme temperature changes we face all year round. You could be basking poolside in the sunny afternoon, and the next day you’re pulling out your heaviest coat and gloves. When nice weather suddenly turns freezing, it’s important to know the risks to you home and what you can do to prevent damage.

SEi is here to help you monitor your home’s temperature and water. Often, this type of home protection is overlooked or forgotten about.

Sudden drops in temperature can cause damage to your home and valuables, if not watched properly. The most common damage seen is a bursting pipe from temperature fluctuations. During winter months, pipes in your home can freeze. As the freezing water inside the pipe expands, the pipe pressure increases, causing it to burst under the weight of the pressure. Main signs of a bursting pipe include: Frozen Pipes

  • Low water pressure when running a faucet
  • Dark, muddy water coming from the faucet
  • Damp drywall in your home
  • Water puddles on the floor or leaks spilling onto the floor

With SEI’s Temperature Monitoring Service, and Water Monitoring Service, there’s no need to be worried about the potential damage a burst pipe can cause.
