We’re big believers in smart home security at Alpha Dog, particularly solutions from Alarm.Com. Alarm.com’s powerful tools and easy integration features make them a leader in smart security solutions, but there’s one particular service we wanted to highlight today: Their remote monitoring capabilities.
While Alarm.com’s systems put a great deal of power in your hands, it’s simply impossible for you to monitor your security system all day, every day. But remote monitoring services are expressly designed to keep an eye on your home when you are otherwise engaged. Here are four ways Alarm.com monitoring can help homeowners in Jacksonville, St. Augustine and Ponte Vedra stay safe.

24/7 SECURITY
With Alarm.com monitoring, their team of security professionals continually watches your home. This way you’ll always have someone watching your property when you aren’t able to.
With Alarm.com monitoring, you can sleep soundly knowing they can act quickly on your behalf if you can’t immediately respond in an emergency. Furthermore, we can connect any home security system to our centralized monitoring platform. This means Alarm.com systems can be installed in brand-new homes as well as connect to any existing security systems.
RAPID RESPONSE
A quick response time is crucial in an emergency, as situations can escalate in minutes or even seconds. Alarm.com monitoring ensures someone can respond quickly no matter what the situation, saving you precious moments that may make all the difference.
When an Alarm.com system senses something is wrong, the average response time is 16.6 seconds. In less than half a minute we can evaluate the problem issue, inform you of the situation, and dispatch the emergency services if needed. The difference between a small incident and a significant threat is sometimes a matter of moments, so you want someone watching your home who can take quick action on your behalf if something happens.
SECURITY FOR ANY SITUATION
One overlooked aspect of monitoring systems is that they don’t just cover robberies and similar crimes. Alarm.com can alert you if a gas or carbon monoxide leak occurs, a fire starts or if your basement is flooding. These individual systems are all linked through your central monitoring system through Alarm.com to provide a well-rounded security network.
NO POWER? NO INTERNET? NO PROBLEM
Power outages and Internet service disruptions aren’t uncommon in this part of Florida, especially if a tropical storm or hurricane sweeps through the area. If a storm knocks out the power or your Internet service, you don’t want your security system to be compromised.
If you have Alarm.com monitoring, this is one issue you won’t need to worry about. In the event of a power outage or Internet failure, you’ll still have Alarm.com security professionals keeping an eye on your home. Their monitoring systems include redundant connections so your system will stay up online no matter what.
