Protection Against Basement Flooding

When you hear “security system” you probably think of solutions like our Burglar Systems. However, there is a lot more to protecting your home than simply stopping human intruders.   Especially in winter, the environment itself can be a much more likely and devastating threat to your home! Frozen pipes, flooded basements, and accidental fires are more common in our Maine winters and can be protected from with a security system.

Another function that offers great peace of mind in winter is temperature monitoring.   Don't worry about your furnace's pilot light going out or any other kind of HVAC failure. You will be notified if your home's temperature ever drops below 40°F.   These systems can also warn you if your summertime air conditioning fails and your house gets too hot, a real lifesaver for any pets left at home.
