Assuming you have the ability to disable alerts for a
client/location/group/machine for a period of time, you could use
pg_cron schedules https://github.com/citusdata/pg_cron to enable and
disable this ability on a scheduled basis.

With some sort of front-end it would be trivial for the customer to
make their own schedules.
