No one ever expects that their home will catch fire, and because of that, many people are unprepared for it. In fact, according to the American Red Cross, 40% of people believe that they are more likely to get struck by lightning or win the lottery than experience a home fire.
Home and even business fires are a lot more common than people think. At APS Security and Fire, we want our customers to be prepared in the event of this type of emergency. Fire alarm monitoring along with a quality security system is the best way, and we can help with that.
What Is Fire Alarm Monitoring?
Your home or business may be equipped with a fire alarm system already. But in most cases, it is up to someone to call 911 to report that there is a fire. That means someone needs to be there. In the event of a fire that occurs when no one is there, or if your family is asleep, it could take several minutes before anyone gets help to the scene.
In a fire, every second matters. Delays are not only costly in terms of items lost, but they could also result in the loss of precious lives.
When you have fire alarm monitoring services, that means that your alarm company will notify the fire department and other local authorities of a fire on your property right away. They will be able to respond quickly, possibly saving lives.
What Are The Advantages Of Having A Security System With Fire Alarm Monitoring?
If you are not at your home or business when a fire starts, you could have a significant amount of damages due to the delay. With a fire alarm monitoring system in place, the fire department may know about the fire on your property before you do.
Also, in the event that a fire does occur when you are at your home or business, your sole focus should be getting yourself and everyone else out safely. You should not have to worry about stopping to call 911 to report the fire. Precious moments are often wasted on that, and it is much safer to have that taken care of for you.
Of course, there are also other advantages as well, such as getting discounts on your insurance and giving you peace of mind.
