Home Security Systems Help More Than You Know
Everyone knows home security systems protect your home and the things you love in them, but what else are they really good for? They aren’t anything more than a waste of money, right?
Not exactly. That seemingly unused Miami ADT alarm system your neighbors have may be the exact reason a burglar hasn’t been in their home. Most break-ins in the U.S. actually happen while homeowners are at work. More than that, they commonly waltz right in through an open door.
Below are the top three ways a security system can help your family that don’t directly involve deterring burglars:
– Remote home controls allow you to adjust your thermostat, lock the doors, turn lights on and off, and close the garage door. You can even set your lighting on a schedule to give the appearance someone is home. An added bonus to this feature is electricity management. If you’ve run out of the house with the air and half the lights on, now an app on your phone saves the day.
– Video monitoring allows you to keep an eye on not only your home and its visitors, but it allows you to monitor your children as well. You can check that they’ve made it home from school safe, locked the house behind them, and see what friends they’re bringing over when you aren’t home. Remote locks even allow you to open the house if they’ve lost their key.
– Alarms notify authorities if fire, smoke, or carbon monoxide is detected in your home. This not only protects your valuables when you’re on vacation, or your children after they are home from school, but it also helps protect your pets. Pets are often considered extended members of our families, and they spend all day at home waiting for us, confident they are safe in their environments. Now they can be.
