Approximate Size 11.75W x 9HYou have installed a home security system in your home and you sleep peacefully knowing your home is safe from thieves and burglars. But is your family and home protected from fire or carbon monoxide poisoning? Will your smoke detector alert be enough to alert your family in case of fire?
Installing a security system that includes fire protection can save your family's life. Mike Edwards is a success story for ADT, the nation's leading security systems. According to information posted on the company's website, Edwards fell asleep while preparing dinner. The heat sensor was activated, alerting the fire department. An ADT representative called Mike's wife at work.
Since the door was dead bolted, firefighters had to break down the door. They found Mike on the floor, with no pulse. Thankfully, Mike was revived and brought back to life. Ironically, Mike has installed his system just four months before the fire.
Everyone wants to think that a devastating fire can never happen to them. But according to the National Fire Protection Association, 1,602,000 homes in the United States caught fire in 2005. What can an alarm system do for you?
Alert your family with a loud noise when smoke is detected in your home while you are sleeping.
If you are away, the alarm will summon help to your home immediately.
Some alarms can alert you on your cell phone if your home catches fire.
Many alarm systems have an option for carbon monoxide detection. Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless gas that can kill you in minutes. Every year, 200 people are killed in the United States by carbon monoxide poisoning. An alarm system can alert you when there is a deadly amount of the gas in your home. This can save you and your family's lives.
Another add-on to a standard security system is a flood detector. If you have ever waded through your basement, this is something you will want to consider adding on to the standard installation.
If you have ill or elderly people in your home, you will want to consider adding a medical alert system. With the touch of a button, 911 will be called in case of an emergency. The monitoring device can be worn as a pendant or on the wrist.
With the exception of treasured family heirlooms, possessions can be replaced. People are not replaceable. Adding fire, carbon monoxide and flood protection to your security system ensures the safety of your family.
