Make Spring Break Fun and Safe

Tips to get you ready for Springtime

It’s springtime. Time to shake off those winter blues and look towards rejuvenation. It’s time for brighter days and more fun. Let’s look at some tips to make springtime an enjoyable period depending on what your plans are or what’s happening around you.

If you are leaving home for spring break
Springtime is an exciting time to go on vacation. But before you pack up and head off to enjoy yourself, make sure to protect your valuables back home . By installing automated safety/security features that will notify you of any issues if you are not at home, you can protect your property from little mishaps like water leaks or potentially major ones such as fire.

If there is an influx of people to your city
Spring breakers can get a little rowdy, especially when alcohol gets in the mix. If you want to protect your property from drunken vandalism arrange for 24/7 alarm monitoring with a trusted security company. When your alarm is triggered, a notification will be sent to a UL Monitoring station that will enable them to notify you about potential problems at your home and quickly contact law enforcement officials.

If you plan on a little Safety Spring Cleaning
Ensure to check and replace the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Also, make sure that your moisture/leak detectors are in working order. Coming off winter you want to ensure there are no leaking or burst pipes around.

Planning your springtime party
A little home automation goes a long way to making your springtime party fun and keeping you safe. Installing a Skybell Video Doorbell allows you to see who is at the door and to let your guests in even if you are in your backyard. Working smoke alarms will let you know if the food is burning. And automatically adjusting your thermostat and shades throughout the day helps you to keep energy efficient no matter where you are.

So, to make springtime safe while you’re having fun:
1. Install security features in and around your home. These can include:
a. Motion sensor lights
b. Security cameras
c. Skybell video doorbell
2. Engage the services of a security firm for 24-hour monitoring
3. Spring clean by checking all the sensors throughout your home and ensuring that they are in working order
4. Install home automation devices for efficiency and of course convenience.
