Hi Guys,

Has anyone used Protect America home security systems? I have learned they are the third largest home security company and they are suppose to use wireless equipment which ADT started to use and brinks is moving to. I was hoping if anyone used this they could give me their opinions on it.

don't over pay or sign a long term contract

Security Systems

? Choose only a company that doesn't require a contract to monitor your alarm. If you feel you have to sign a contract, never sign one for more than one year, and make sure it doesn't have a "rollover" clause that renews that contract automatically. Update!
? Don't pay more than $15 to $20 a month for monitoring. Update!
? To shop, start calling companies at the end of the yellow page listings, instead of front, because the big expensive companies usually are the first listed.
? To figure the cost of equipment, make a drawing of your home, or a checklist, and figure out how many doors and windows you need to protect.
? Don't lease a burglar alarm system.
? Always get smoke and fire monitoring as part of the system.
