1. A method of regulating an environmental condition at a site by a server coupled to a network, the method comprising: receiving, via the network, environmental measurement data from a hub device of a monitoring system at the site, wherein the hub device receives the environmental measurement data from a sensor device at the site via a second network distinct from the network; receiving a request for configuration information from the hub device; in response to the request, providing an indication of an upload frequency to the hub device, wherein the hub device automatically transmits the environmental measurement data received from the sensor device to the server with the upload frequency; determining, by the server, an action for an electrical appliance at the site based at least in part on the environmental measurement data and one or more monitoring rules associated with the site; and providing an indication of the action to an actuator for the electrical appliance.
