In this age and time it’s common for a vast majority of families to spend most of their time outside the house, primarily for work. Which means it becomes crucial to protect your family and property from intruders, and accidents, while you are away. Even if you are part of the growing “work from home” community, ensuring all that matters to you the most is well protected, in these rather unsettling times, is of prime importance.
Research studies have revealed only around 12% of criminals break-in with a plan in place, while their vast majority tends to commit burglary on impulse. The reason why a home security system with outdoor cameras, yard signs and window decals etc., acts as an effective deterrent for 60% burglars. Also, the FBI crime data indicates a significant chunk of burglaries occurs during day time when the occupants of a property are away. So whether you are away from home for a short excursion or a long business trip, a home security system can give you the peace of mind you deserve.
Plus having a home security system has an attractive monetary benefit for homeowners and that is a lower premium on home insurance. When your home is made secure by an active and well-monitored system, and you also have sensor-based smart home equipment integrated into it, you can save up to 5% on the insurance premium. Equipping your home with CO, flooding, and smoke alerts etc. also ensures timely assistance reaches your loved ones when a life endangering situation is encountered.
