Freeze Alarm

I have also used the intermediate Freeze alarm for many yeas. It has saved me more than once. HOWEVER.....if you have Time Warner phone service, forget about the freeze alarm. If the power goes out, you are out of luck, as Time Warner does not offer battery back up in this region. I have had to stay with FairPoint for phone just because of the risk of no power in the winter. So be careful and be sure you have powered phones to make the call. The VOIP and other cable phones do not work when power is out, so you will never be called. If power is ON and the burner goes out/malfunctions, you would be called regardless of phone provider...since there is power.
