(Newswire.net — September 16, 2014) Cambridge, MA —
Just realized you may not have shut the garage door after exiting? What if there’s a flood, a leaking water heater or a carbon monoxide alarm while you’re away from home? What about kids and pets at home? Winters Home Services, an award-winning provider of plumbing, heating, cooling, and air quality services, is the first to offer an industry leading CarePlus Home Monitoring Program to residents throughout greater Boston.
With 20 years in the business and 60,000 happy customers, Winters Home Services owner Tim Flynn understands New England weather and the critical heating, cooling and plumbing issues that can arise along with the concern of keeping your family safe. Recognizing the value of being able to control and monitor customers’ home systems, in real time, through a Smart device, Flynn worked with MIT experts in the development of this sophisticated technology.
Winters’ CarePlus Home Monitoring program provides safety and peace of mind by enabling homeowners to monitor and access their home’s most important systems – from water sensors and home energy meters, carbon monoxide detectors and thermostats to lights, door locks and more – through any Smart device. Essentially, CarePlus provides home automation and monitoring to ensure the optimal operation and safety of home systems and the maximum in energy savings, backed by “first-in-line” service and accountability that only a local company can provide. At the first sign of trouble, such as a leak or significant temperature change, a damage prevention alert is sent to the homeowner’s Smart device. The homeowner can then resolve the issue through their Smart device or call in the cavalry – the Winters team – to fix the problem before it becomes a catastrophe.
Three different CarePlus plans are available. All plans include at least two annual visits from Winters, where 137 heating, cooling and plumbing items are checked, along with check-ups on all monitoring devices without additional costs (which includes battery changes and diagnostics). Unlike other companies that simply offer home automation and security, Winters goes the extra mile by monitoring and resolving any system issues that arise before they become serious and cause extensive, and often expensive, damages. Winters does not require a contract, and service may be disconnected at any time without penalty.
“Our CarePlus Home Monitoring provides the peace of mind needed for today’s busy lifestyle. Whether you’re hours away from home or you have a second home, our monitoring system provides you complete home awareness at all times. Plus, we go well beyond just providing the technology. Once you receive an alert, simply press ‘call Winters’ on your Smart phone and we will send out an technician to solve your issues. Consider the Winters team as the cavalry coming to the rescue,” said Flynn.
For a limited time, new CarePlus Home Monitoring customers will receive a free Mass Save Thermostat (with redemption), as well as discount off monitoring devices. Winters provides standard next-day installation. To learn more, visit www.wintershomeservices.com
