The first time you considered adding video monitoring to your home security alarm system, it might have struck you as a “nice to have” vs. a “must have”. But have you considered the added peace of mind video monitoring can provide? Let’s have a look:
- If your home is burglarized while no one is home, recorded video serves as added evidence of what happened, when, and who the perpetrator(s) might be.
- Your video monitoring service comes with a phone app so you can keep an eye on things while you’re gone. Did your kids arrive home safely and on time? Are they doing their homework or the chores you left for them? There are even video alerts to notify you if something out of the ordinary is taking place.
- Check with your homeowners insurance company, because adding video monitoring to your home security system could result in a premium reduction.
- If you have a cleaning service, a nanny, or any other full- or part-time home staff, a video monitoring system enables you to hold them accountable for the work they’ve been engaged to perform.
- Imagine for a second that a burglar enters your home and you don’t have access to a phone or any other means to contact the authorities and feel safe while doing so. With a video monitoring system, your security alarm provider will contact the authorities for you – after all, it’s part of what you’re paying for.
- A video monitoring system allows you and your security monitoring service to keep track of areas you seldom visit, like your garage, a distant hallway at your place of business, even your backyard. The more eyes keeping an eye on things, the better.
