Five Benefits of Alarm Systems You May Not Know
We all know the benefits of a quality home alarm system, or do we? Many of us know about the basics of home security. Below are five benefits of a home security system you may not have known about.
1. We know that an alarm system is a great reactionary weapon against home break-ins. However, a home security system can also act as a great proactive deterrent against break-ins. Those little window stickers and yard signs will deter a criminal from breaking into a home. For this very reason, it is important to make sure your yard sign has the most recognizable name in home security. Ask five of your friends what ADT is known for. Chances are they will all know, and so do criminals.
2. Home security systems can be monitored remotely via your laptop or tablet from anywhere in the world. Also, if you have video surveillance installed, you can view what is going on in your home in real time. No longer will you have to wonder if your teen is doing their homework or throwing the obligatory party while you are away on vacation. Not to mention you can view any potential criminal activity going on in your home so you can alert the proper authorities.
3. Not only will a home security system protect you from criminals, it will also protect you from other lethal and unseen dangers. An ADT system can alert you to fires and carbon monoxide gases in the home. Not only will it alert you, but a home security system will also alert emergency services to the potential life threatening circumstances unfolding at your home.
4. A home security system can also save you money on most homeowner insurance policies. Insurers offer such saving due to reduced chances of break-ins and fire. Not a bad endorsement considering we all know insurance companies are not exactly known for giving away free money.
5. Lastly, the piece of mind that comes from having a home security system is immeasurable.
Home security is a serious matter, especially in Miami. Though crime rates have dropped over the last several decades in the United States, Florida remains one of the states with the highest crime rates in the country. Consider purchasing a home security system, like ADT Pulse, in order to protect yourself and your family, it might be the wisest decision you make all year.
