The benefits of home security systems
The most important reason why you should have a home security system is because it will put you at ease when you are home. Your home is your sanctuary and with a home security system you will be able to feel safe and secure. After a hard day of work all you want to do is relax, and feeling safe and secure will put your mind at peace and let you relax in ease.
With a home security system, your home will be protected from burglaries, fires, floods.
Over 2 million (2,000,000+) burglaries occur each year in the United States. Based on this, roughly 1% of the population of the United States falls victim to a burglary each year.
Between 1998 and 2007 there was an average of 4.69% annual residential fire increases. Based on this percentage, the calculated amount of fires for 2009 will be roughly 453,000, potentially causing $13,628 million (~$13,628,000,000) in damages.
How security companies ensure your safety
Home security companies can safeguard your home by ways of specialized equipment and/or monitoring. Usually a home security company will install a series of detectors and controllers in your home. The detectors can have varying responsibilities such as motion detection, fire/smoke detection, water detection (in floods), as well as Carbon Monoxide (CO) detection.
All of these detectors will communicate with a controller in your house. The controller is usually placed at the entrance of the home. The controller is responsible for triggering the alarm system if a motion detector trips, such as when a burglary occurs, and communicating with the monitoring center.
When a monitoring center receives a signal from a controller it will notify the appropriate local emergency services.
How much do home security systems cost?
There is a $99 installation fee, and the monthly monitoring fee is between $35.99 and $45.99.
