Modern challenges to your existing security system may require innovative solutions to fit your lifestyle. Plain Old Telephone Service lines (POTS) are in the history books now, according to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Many telephone providers therefore have switched to alternatives, simulating these phone lines, but they are causing problems with older security systems to communicate emergency signals. POTS lines, used to be the only means for monitoring alarms, are now becoming obsolete and replaced with wireless connections.

Need to grant access to your early guests while you're at work? With the convenience of an incorporated garage door opener or a smart lock on your door, it is an easy task through the Total Connect app. No need to rush home or leave spare keys under the mat.
Set up smart lights through Total Connect to automatically switch on in the evenings while you're on vacation. This feature creates the illusion of an occupied home and serves as a powerful deterrent. Total Connect empowers you with the flexibility to manage your security anywhere, any time, giving you peace of mind and convenience.
System Upgrades to Increase Longevity. Strategic upgrades will ensure your system's proper response. If your smoke detectors are over 10 years old, consider replacing them to avoid compromising your life safety. The same applies to older glass breakage sensors as some can be too sensitive and prone to set off an alarm when there is no threat. If your system was installed before 2007, the security panel—brain of your system—would benefit from an upgrade too as modern panels provide better functionality and integration with advanced smart technology.
Why Consider Upgrading? These upgrades are designed to empower your system, ensuring it can better serve you. Not only will they provide immediate benefits, but will also prolong the life of your guardian, maximizing its value for years to come. It is our duty to provide you with the knowledge and options for you to make informed decisions about your security. While we understand that an upgrade may not be necessary for everyone, we encourage you to consider the possibilities and the numerous benefits it could bring to your daily life.
