Temperature
Get a text as soon as the temperature drops toward freezing, in time to do something before a pipe bursts.
CabinPulse's freeze alarm monitors your property 24/7 and sends instant alerts when temperatures drop dangerously low - all without WiFi.
Key Features
The point of a freeze alarm is the hours before the damage, not the discovery afterwards. CabinPulse watches the temperature fall and messages you while there is still time to do something about it.
Industrial-grade sensors with ±0.2°C accuracy detect temperature changes before they become problems.
Get immediate notifications via text and email when temperatures drop below your custom threshold.
Power outage? CabinPulse keeps monitoring and alerting for up to 3 days on battery backup.
Cellular connectivity means your freeze alarm works anywhere with cell coverage - no internet needed.
Track temperature trends over time to understand your property's heating patterns.
Set your own temperature alerts - get notified exactly when you want to be.
What it watches
Every sensor you need is built right into CabinPulse — nothing to add, wire or install.

Know the moment the power goes out. It is usually the first sign that something else is about to go wrong.
Damp builds into mould and mildew over a season. Catch it while it is still a small job.
Tracks CO2, VOCs and overall air quality, so you know when the air has gone bad in a closed-up building.
Cellular is included and unlimited, on all major networks worldwide. Your property needs no internet at all.
Smart thermostats and WiFi sensors go down with the router. CabinPulse has its own battery and cellular for two to three days.
The app
Every reading is saved, so you can check the full history any time from your phone or computer.
When something's wrong
There is an app, and it works on your phone, tablet or computer. But once your alerts are set up you don't need to open it — CabinPulse messages you when something changes.
Temperature alert — Emma Lake
Now 4.1°C, below your 5°C threshold. Tap to see the last 24 hours.
The same alert, both ways.
A pilot light goes out or a blower fails, and the building starts cooling from the inside. There is no bang and no alarm — the temperature just falls, for however many days it takes someone to visit.
Heat is electric, or the furnace needs electricity to run. An outage in January is a freeze warning, which is why the same device watches both.
Water expands as it freezes and splits the pipe, but the split does not flood anything until it thaws. The damage is done hours before there is any evidence of it.
A burst pipe at an unoccupied cabin can run for weeks. The difference between a plumbing repair and a rebuild is how quickly somebody knew.
Smart plugs and dial thermostats are the usual alternative. The difference is what happens when the power or the internet goes — which is precisely when a pipe freezes.

A freeze alarm that reports over the WiFi of an empty cabin is telling you about the problem using the connection the problem just took out.
CabinPulse is an unmonitored environmental reporting tool. Nobody watches your readings and nobody is dispatched. It is not a fire alarm, smoke alarm or carbon monoxide detector, and it will not stop a pipe freezing — it tells you the temperature is falling, early enough that you can call someone who can.
Setting it up
As soon as you connect it to power, it starts monitoring.
Any outlet, anywhere in the building. The cord is long on purpose, and the included wall mount is there if you want it.
Cellular is included and unlimited, on all major networks worldwide.
Set your alerts, add anyone else who should be notified, and view your readings any time.
What it costs
CabinPulse includes unlimited connectivity, unlimited alerts, no overages — and total peace of mind.
