RESIDENTIAL FIRE PROTECTION
In 2007 there were 3,430 civilians that lost their lives as the result of fire-killing
more Americans than all natural disasters combined.*
As
a homeowner you can significantly reduce these risks by maintaining a properly designed
and installed fire protection plan.
A-com can install a complete fire protection package with fire and heat detection
sensors throughout your home. These devices are powered and supervised through the
control panel installed in your residence. In the event a fire is detected, the
system can verbally alert all occupants of the danger and notify our 24-hr call
center so that emergency services can be dispatched as needed.
A working smoke detector can reduce your risk by 50%.**
There is a crucial difference between a monitored smoke detector and an unsupervised
store bought detector. A-com’s monitored smoke detectors and heat sensors provide
you with a life line to our Monitoring Center and the Emergency Services in the
event of a home fire.
Much like a monitored security system, the monitored fire protection devices are
watching over your home when you aren’t. A non-supervised smoke detector will simply
beep while the fire in your house continues to burn, whereas a monitored device
will enable you to reduce the amount of fire damage.
Another aspect to consider: A-com’s fire protection devices are connected to our
control panel. The control panel is monitoring the fire protection device itself
to ensure it is sending signals to our Monitoring center.
A-com can design a fire protection plan specifically for your home to ensure you
receive the most protection possible.
