Vacation Home Monitoring in Hawley
This is the system we recommend before any other in a house that is empty November through March. A single frozen pipe here routinely runs past $40,000 in remediation, and a monitoring package is a fraction of one winter's deductible.
Historic borough and in-town housing
Older homes have older plumbing, and often original supply lines in places nobody has looked in decades. That raises the value of leak detection relative to freeze sensors — the failure is at least as likely to be a fitting letting go as a furnace quitting. We put sensors at every supply line we can reach and a shutoff valve on the main.
Local conditions
What this looks like in Hawley.
The housing here
Older borough housing with plaster, balloon framing, and knob-and-tube remnants, alongside modern lake construction. Retrofit work here rewards experience and punishes assumptions.
Connectivity
The borough has reasonable service; the surrounding hills fall off quickly. Properties a few minutes out of town frequently need a different plan than the ones in it.
Why owners here buy it
A real mix of year-round residents and second-home owners, so the ask splits between everyday comfort — lighting, audio, good Wi-Fi — and away-from-home protection.

Questions
Monitoring questions from Hawley homeowners
Something not covered here? Call (267) 719-3598 and ask.
Do you install vacation home monitoring in Hawley?
Yes. Hawley is part of our regular service area and we work throughout Wayne County, including Hawley Borough, Tafton, Woodloch area. We are based in Pocono Pines, so this is work we do ourselves rather than subcontract.
What happens if the power goes out?
The hub has battery backup and cellular failover, so a power-loss alert still reaches you when both the electricity and the internet are gone. That is the moment you most need to hear from the house.
Can it shut the water off by itself?
Yes. A motorized valve on the main closes automatically when a leak sensor trips. It is the single most valuable device in the package.
