If property managers don\u2019t take preventative measures to monitor these conditions, they can end up paying in time and money later on when disaster inevitably strikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.all4inc.com\/4-the-record-articles\/facility-management-top-5-environmental-compliance-issues-for-engineers-and-managers\/\">Environment monitoring<\/a> allows property managers to successfully manage their multiple properties without having to physically be on-site 24\/7. Environment monitoring protects your facilities from costly downtime by tracking the changes in your environment. By proactively monitoring, you ensure your properties are always in the best conditions possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Room Alert provides superior environment monitoring because of our unique and trustworthy features.

Room Alert supports users with alert notifications via email, text or HTTP post from anywhere at any time when there are any changes in their environment. Also with Room Alert notifications, users can go a step further and personalize their devices to schedule quiet times, multiple users and more. The changes that Room Alert monitors include but are not limited to: temperature, humidity, air-flow, power, flood and smoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Room Alert in the Real-World<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/avtech.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/icicles-3529002_1920-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16817\" width=\"220\" height=\"165\" srcset=\"https:\/\/avtech.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/icicles-3529002_1920-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/avtech.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/icicles-3529002_1920-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/avtech.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/icicles-3529002_1920-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/avtech.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/icicles-3529002_1920.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 220px) 100vw, 220px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if a water pipe bursts in one of your facilities, Room Alert will notify you of the issues as soon as it can be detected. Armed with this information, you can immediately make an educated decision and prevent any further damage. Without environment monitoring, that unseen water leak would continue to cause serious water damage or even mold damage. Room Alert drastically reduces the risk and extent of environment damage through the key tool of prevention through alert notifications and 24\/7 monitoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In another situation, a renter went without hot water for as long as 8 days, for 8-10 times over the course of six months. <a href=\"https:\/\/news4sanantonio.com\/news\/local\/apartment-complex-listed-as-chronic-offender-with-code-enforcement\">This property manager<\/a> reported mold damage, water leaking and flooding. As a result of failing to maintain safe conditions, the property manager was cited with code non-compliance and was subsequently listed as a chronic offender. If this building had been protected by Room Alert, this costly and timely disaster would have been avoided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If there is a fire, would you rather hope that your smoke detector works or have peace of mind that the alerts you created in our Room Alert Account portal will text you the instant smoke is detected?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propmodo.com\/remote-monitoring-and-the-future-of-proactive-property-management\/\">Parks Associates<\/a>, in mid-2018 more than 23 million US homes have professional monitoring services.
