There is nothing as precious as your family and home. While there are many alarm systems available to help protect your home against robbery and invasion, many are not equipped to function correctly when phone lines or electricity is down or shut off by a criminal. Wireless alarm monitoring is the best way to ensure your home and family are protected, regardless of the circumstances. 

Choosing A Wireless Alarm Monitoring Service

Just like all home services, not all alarm services are created equal. If you are investing in home protection, you need to ensure the company you choose has the best capacity to monitor your home in all types of situations. Criminals know that cutting phone lines, power outages and other factors can leave you vulnerable; don’t risk your home and family by using an alarm service that will not be there when you need it most. Some factors to consider when choosing a alarm monitoring service: 

• Certified monitoring station – Choose an alarm monitoring company with a monitoring station that has been certified by the Central Station Alarm Association (CSAA). A 5 Diamond Certification is the best, with only 3% of all monitoring stations receiving this level.
   
• VOIPP or no phone line – If you use cellular phones as your only phone lines or VOIPP, wireless alarm monitoring is imperative. Wireless also protects you when traditional phone lines are out of service, or cut by a criminal trying to invade your home. 

Investing in your home and family’s protection is money well spent. While insurance may reimburse you for items stolen, it cannot replace your family or your peace of mind. Wireless alarm monitoring is the most reliable way to protect your family and possessions, so contact a professional security installation service who understands your unique needs.

One of the best things about current home security products is that fire alarms and burglar alarms can let your alarm provider and the police know if there’s any trouble in your home. However if the intruders or the flames have cut your telephone lines then there’s a problem. With traditional alarm systems it’s not been possible for home owners to feel totally secure with their security protection.

Plus, what if you don’t use a land line normally? This is a situation more and more folks find themselves in, after all, with advances in mobile phone technology and cheap ways to make calls over it such as VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) it means than families find themselves with the unwanted overhead of a land line just to maintain their alarm system.

If that all seems a little impractical and may be a touch less safe than it could be – then the good news is that you don’t have to rely on a land line to protect you and your loved ones any more. A wireless security system adds additional protection without the need for a land line.

Wireless monitoring for residential homes works by installing a wireless monitoring system in your residence which, in the event that your alarm is triggered, sends out a message over the cellular system to your security provider’s monitoring station ensuring prompt response from the emergency services.

If you like your land line or want to add another layer of protection, the wireless monitoring system can act as a redundancy solution for when the phone lines are down, have been tampered with or if you or any of your family is in a difficult situation such as being held hostage.
