Install an IMS-4000 like device
If you think about your question, Data Centres have the same kind of requirements. Often they are not manned, yet admins need to keep very close tabs on floods, fires, temperature levels etc. So how do they do it? The install HVAC / Environmental monitor kind of devices & hook them up to an IP network. These devices can also email you, page you, or even call you with a pre-recorded message of what's wrong.

SensaPhone
http://www.sensaphone.com/ makes a number of devices that do that, though most use a phone line. We use them at work to monitor the server rooms for temperature, power, and water (They sell add-on water and other sensors). You can also listen to the room noises through the SensaPhone. We connect them to regular analog phone lines (not connected through the company phone system), so even if the phone system goes down, the devices can contact us. The devices we have are AC powered, and are backed up by D-cell batteries.
If you do a web search for SensaPhone, you'll also find lots of places that sell the SensaPhones and other similar devices. -
Remote monitoring
We use a device from this company to monitor our data centers for power, temperature and water intrusion.

This should work, but you still need a trusted indevidual locally to handle any problem that came up. -
As long as you have a working phone line...
All you need is this:

I've used a Sensaphone in the past for a small data center, and it worked great. Never went down, never had problems, never had a false alarm. They've been around for a very long time. -
Sensaphone
We use a Sensaphone 1104 (my boss is a real geek). It will dial phone numbers, send pages if certain conditions are met regarding the server room. Sensaphone offers many more products that do similiar tasks.

We use a box from Sensaphone
Our Server room has a small box on the wall that mainly monitors our UPS. It hooks up with alarm wire contacts (normally closed/normally open) And also has a temprature sensor. When an alarm triggers it calls pre-programmed phone numbers in sequence, and tells you which alarms are going off (and the room temprature). It also has a noise level monitoring system too, if the noise level gets too high, it will call you and let you listen to the room via it's built in microphone. All you need is a power outlet, and an analog phone line.
This box is the series we use. I don't work for them, it's just worked well for us, so I figured I'd share. -
Re:You want a Sensaphone
Specifically the Sensaphone Cottage Sitter model.

You want a SensaphoneYou don't have to invent the solution when an inexpensive commerical one has been sold for over decade. Get a Sensaphone. It should cost $200 or less.
I've used Sensaphones to monitor remote computer rooms. It has alarm input contacts on it so you can connect water sensors and such. It calls a list of phone numbers when triggered by an alarm or low/high temperature and gives the problem and status to you in a voice announcement.
There are other similar slef-contained alarm dialer solutions
