Our latest design in motion sensors allows for pet movement while still providing protection. A pet immune motion sensor is specifically designed so that a pet under a certain weight will not cause an alarm. This is achieved through state of the art, dual sensor technology, located in the motion device. Pets under a certain weight do not have enough heat coming from their body to trigger the alarm.

First and foremost remain calm, and simply enter your four digit security code. If your system still doesn’t disarm, press clear and try your code again. Then get your emergency response card (that contains your account number, the monitoring stations phone number and Safe-Tech’s phone number) and call the monitoring station to advise them that you accidentally tripped your alarm. You will need to tell the monitoring station your password and account number.

This all depends on the size of the system and accessibility for wiring. The typical “Free Alarm” system takes half a day to install.

The installation of closed circuit television cameras will save your company thousand’s of dollars in loss prevention. The average retailer loses 5% of their inventory due to employee and customer theft. Statistics show that this loss can be cut in half with the addition of C.C.T.V. cameras.

A trained dispatcher will call your home to verify if you have set the alarm off inadvertently by yourself and will ask for your password. If there is no answer after 5 rings or the correct password is not given, the proper authorities (Police or Guards) are immediately notified and dispatched to your premises. The monitoring station will proceed to go through the call list for the premises and try to reach a responsible party. The police or guards, once they have arrived will do a perimeter check of your premises, and look for any visible signs of forced entry. If none is found, they will leave. The alarm will reset itself after 4 minutes and the siren will stop sounding. If a break-in has occurred, the police or guards will notify the station, and report their findings to you.

– User error (i.e.. someone taking too long to leave)
– Poor quality equipment or faulty equipment
– Good equipment installed improperly
– Programming error
– Extreme weather conditions

The system has a back-up supply battery, housed in the control panel, for this emergency. It will recharge itself once the power returns.

Yes, arming your system in “STAY MODE” disarms the interior motion detector(s) for freedom of movement while keeping the perimeter armed.

Having a monitored smoke detector at your premise ensures that the fire department will be contacted if you have a fire emergency. A good photoelectric smoke detector will detect smoke particles caused by even a slow smoldering fire. If you are not at home, and do not have a monitoring service, odds are no one will hear your smoke alarm when you have a fire condition! Therefore it is important that someone monitor this device 24 hours a day! With this service, your smoke detector is continuously monitored through a 24 hour zone, even when your alarm system is not armed!

You pay the same monitoring fee regardless of what other devices are being monitored! Therefore it makes a lot of sense to have other devices installed, such as carbon monoxide and smoke detectors! This way you will maximize the value of your monitoring.

The answer is probably. Depending on which area or region you reside, the police have implemented a cost recovery program for alarm dispatches. Check with your Safe-Tech security advisor for any applicable charge in your area.
