Protection Against Fire

Fires are the leading cause of personal property damage to homeowners. With a traditional smoke alarm, two things need to occur for them to be effective in preventing the spread of fire. You need to be home and if you are asleep, you need to be awakened.

With an integrated smoke & fire alarm system, police and fire departments are dispatched whether you are home or not; awake or not.

Monitronics' nationwide network of Customer Monitoring Centers offer a number of
advantages over traditional monitoring systems:

• On duty and monitoring your home 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year
• Advanced technology for monitoring break-ins, fire, flood, and other critical condition alarms
• Monitronic invests the extra time and money required to gain UL approval for all of its monitoring centers, which reduces the risk of a disruption in service
• Powerful, efficient computers and secure communications links with multiple back-up systems
• Each center is a virtual environment — so if your connection is interrupted, another center takes over
• Internal Disaster Management Program providing uninterrupted service in times of crisis, like the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew and recovery from the Murrah Federal Building bombing in Oklahoma City
