Peak Season For Burglary

Be prepared for summer burglary season.
One thing we see every summer is that burglaries increase. Many kids are out of school with not allot to do. Many types of petty crime increase, as these guys look fro a quick buck. So you are more at risk of being burglarized than any other time of year. Enjoying the warm, fresh air, family members can become complacent about leaving doors, windows and blinds open. What’s more, summer is when families like to go on vacation. So, take a minute to read Security Tips for Summer. Let’s keep your home and family safe this summer.
 Tips
1.    Think like a burglar. This means looking at your home and trying to find a way in. Ladder left outside? Put it away. Shrubs to hide behind or trees to climb giving access to upstairs? Burglars who target windows for entry often look for one with overgrown shrubs near it so that they can hide from neighbors. Vents? Dog doors? Get creative – and sneaky! And remember: burglars do cut phone lines, which is why Power Home Technologies provides cellular communication on every system.
  2.         Doors, Windows & Locks. We know the front or back door is the most common point of entry, but open windows in the summer are tempting for intruders. Sliding glass doors are a  favorite target for lifting out – and you're a glass break detector can be a good if someone breaks a window to enter your home.  You can also add integrated remotely control and monitor door locks and be notified in real-time if locked doors are unlocked.
 3.         Do not open the door to strangers. You don’t have to open your door to strangers. . Also,  summer is the high season for burglaries, when one burglar holds your attention while  another rips you off. With Power Home Technologies new doorbell camera system you can see who is at the door and speak with them. The beauty of it is the do not know weather you are at home or across town.

    4.       Your Alarm System. Here are a couple of scary stats: (1) the FBI reports that there is a  burglary  in the US every 15 seconds, and (2) without a monitored alarm systems you are three times more likely to experience a break-in as your neighbor with a system – and that deterrence starts with  yard or fence signage and window decals. Make it clear you’re  protected, and reduce the risk by displaying yard signs and window decals where they are in clear view of a potential burglar. Protect your home and family with an interactive, home security and automation system that operated on the cellular network our specialty at  Power Home Technologies .
      5.   Save on Utilities. Energy management is all the rage these days, and controlling your   temperature settings, cooling schedules, and other aspects of your home energy management – all mobile application on your cell phone . These benefits can more than pay for your monthly monitoring service if used correctly.   This is one of the fastest growing  areas in home automation, because it puts money back into your family’s budget.
Let Power Home Technologies help you to have a great worry free summer knowing your home is safe and secure.
