Making Sure the Police or Fire Department Can Find Your Home

•Make sure your street address number is clearly visible from the street and is well lighted at night so the police and other emergency personnel can locate your home easily. Numbers should be at least 4 inches high must be used on individual dwellings and duplexes, and 12 inches high on multiple-unit residential buildings.

•Make sure your unit number (in a multifamily housing development) is clearly visible from paths in the development. A directory or map that shows paths and unit locations should be placed at the main entrance of the development.

•Provide the police with an entry code if you live in a gated community.

Without the need for a truck and technician to go to a customer home, security systems can be programmed to interface with the central monitoring station from IAM's office location. This new process provides huge savings and keeps IAM's overhead costs at a minimum. And the savings are passed on to the customer. Over 250,000 customer's trust their homes to highly trained operators working in the central station. Available 24/7, they monitor for signals coming from homes and businesses. The central station provides full dispatch capabilities. This means they are able to determine what causes an alarm to go off. Depending on the type of system in the home, the operator can tell the type of device that sent the signal. It could be a fire, smoke, or a door that was broken down that triggered an alarm. It could be CO2 levels are too high or a silent signal was sent could mean someone is experiencing a home invasion. Most licensed central stations, like IAM's, are designed and managed in the same fashion. Only Interstate Alarm Monitoring offers the most reasonable and lowest price.
