- Do I need internet access at the winery for remote monitoring?
Most systems require an internet connection. WiFi or a wired connection is usually sufficient. For sites without reliable internet, cellular-enabled sensors that use the mobile network are available.
- Can I see the monitoring data myself?
You have full access. The platform provides a dashboard you can view on your phone, tablet or computer at any time – real-time readings, historical trends and alert history. Our team also has access so we can respond to alerts and review performance during service visits.
- What happens when an alert is triggered?
At minimum, you receive an immediate notification. If your service plan includes monitored response, the alert is also sent to our team and we can dispatch a technician or call you to discuss the best course of action.
- How much does monitoring cost?
There is a one-off hardware cost for the sensors and a modest ongoing monitoring fee, both outlined in your service agreement. For most wineries, the cost is easily justified by the value of the stock being protected and the early-warning benefit.
Winery Refrigeration Monitoring and Alerts
Winery refrigeration monitoring gives you continuous visibility over the conditions that protect your stock, even when no one is onsite. A remote monitoring system tracks temperature, humidity and key equipment parameters in real time and sends alerts the moment something drifts outside range. When you have significant value in barrel, tank or cool room storage, this is a practical safeguard against the kind of undetected failure that escalates overnight or over a weekend.
Coalfields Climate Control installs and manages remote monitoring for wineries across the Hunter Valley, integrated with our 24/7 service capability so that an alert can trigger a response, not just a notification.
