Does a Second Home in Hamden Need Security?
A friend posed this question recently; Living primarily in Melbourne Florida , I know I need home security because of the energy features and monitored smoke detectors but I have a home in Hamden, CT which I visit a few times a year, does the second home in Hamden need home security too?
My initial thought was if the property had value, then yes but if it wasn’t worth much I wasn’t too sure. As I delved into the subject more I realized that my friend was taking advantage of the feature in the system he purchased last year. He at first wanted just security , which I was happy to accommodate. As he came to read about all of the features his Lynx 7000 had he decided to hook up a thermostat to the system. With the security system configured to be a certain temperatures when he was home and away he started to see how it would save him on his energy.
He added more z wave modules after, first it was lighting and later he had to have the z wave enabled garage door opener . My friend also liked the weather and traffic report he would see on his screen as he left the home after arming the system . He was one of the people who enjoyed technology.
Getting back to his question, does his second home in Hamden need security, I think yes and here’s why ;
Insurance discount
; because the home has a monitored security system with monitored smoke and CO detectors he will receive an insurance discount.
Energy savings
; Incorporating home automation
into the heating and cooling will save even more money and add convenience.
Peace of Mind
; One of the rewards of a home security system is peace of mind.
Most people think about the investment when thinking about home security , but as you can see based on the above it’s pretty much a wash because when you add it all up home security pays for itself. People have many reasons for getting home security systems these days. Some enjoy the fact they can see what’s going on at home when they aren’t there . While others say they like to be able to lock and unlock their doors remotely , along with their security… this way they don’t have to give out a key .
