The franchise nature of ADT can also mean that you’ll find a somewhat inconsistent level of customer service and support depending upon where you are based, and that can be frustrating when you are used to receiving good service, but move somewhere else, and suddenly have poor service.

In general, a 2GHz system can keep constant connection with wireless components in about an acre worth of residential area. One disadvantage of the wireless system is that the components will eventually run out of battery life. It is therefore necessary to invest in a dependable battery backup system not only in case of emptying battery life but also to continue to protect your home even in the event of a power outage or a break in attempt by an intruder. Also, note that it is better to buy equipment that is powered by rechargeable batteries. They may have a larger upfront cost, but will prove to be more economical in the long run. Look for a system that notifies you or gives an alarm that can alert you if which batteries are running low. Or if you can, frequently test the components of your system and replace batteries regularly. Another disadvantage of a wireless configuration is the risk of faulty installation. Even though you don’t need any formal training to set up this system, there’s always the risk that you did not do it properly. When you hire a service provider, you can make sure that everything will be done correctly. Also, DIY home security systems don’t have the capability to connect to a professional monitoring service.
Besides the cost of the equipment, these smart home appliances often charge a monthly fee.

That’s short for Underwriters Laboratories, an independent agency that tests electronics to make sure they’re not just pieces of junk. The UL also tests home security monitoring stations. Its testing methods cover a lot of the same ground as the FM Approval, but it goes even further, reviewing the quality of the monitoring technology and the knowledge, response times, and abilities of the operators and employees. If a station gets the UL stamp of approval, its operators, technology, and facilities are the best of their class. One of the best things about SimpliSafe is that it's a completely configurable system, with five packages available. On the high end there's the Haven package $489. 86, which comes with 14 hardware components including the base station, a wireless keypad, a keychain remote, two motion sensors, four door/window entry sensors, a panic button, a 105 decibel siren, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, water and freeze sensors, and a SimpliSafe yard sign and window decals. The least expensive Foundation pack $229. 96, which is designed for small homes and focuses solely on basic home security, includes the base station, a wireless keypad, one motion sensor, one entry sensor, and the yard sign and decals. If you want to add one or more SimpliCam security cameras the system supports up to four, they're $99 each. And the Video Doorbell Pro is an integrated 1080p smart doorbell with camera that you can add for $169.
