Tips To Be Safe And Save Money With A Las Vegas Homes Security System
As encouraged by some nation’s insurance
companies, Monitored Security System should be installed in every Las Vegas homes. Insurance companies are offering
homeowners substantial discounts on homeowners’ insurance.
President of the
Electronic Security Association, Dom D’Ascoli said that a survey of 10 largest
insurance companies is offering homeowners coverage found premium discounts
that are up to 20% if a home is already equipped with a monitored alarm system.
He also said that the discounts can be substantial enough to pay a portion of
the monitoring costs or an instillation of the system.
On the other hand,
Michael Barry, spokesperson for the Insurance Information Institute said that
the majority of insurance companies offer discounts to Las Vegas homes owners on purchase of alarm systems. “Homeowners
should check with their individual carrier to determine the amount and
availability of the discounts,” he added.
According to a
study by Dr. Simon Hakim of Temple University, an alarmed single family
detached Las Vegas homes is more than 60% less likely to be robbed and burgled compared
to a home without any alarms.
The team Rutgers researchers
have used sophisticated in-depth research techniques in their 2-year study in
Newark, New Jersey. This is to eliminate the variables that influence and
impact crime rates to focus mainly on the impact alarm systems have on residential
burglaries.
D’Ascoli said, “Thanks
to modern technology alarm systems are more affordable, versatile and
dependable than ever before,” and the Rutgers study showed that these
technical innovations have increased the availability of the home’s security
systems to middle class homeowners and help in the reduction of crime.
There are also
modern alarm systems that also reduce the damage caused by such calamity damage
in Las Vegas homes like fires. According to statistics from the Insurance
Information Institute, fire and lightning are almost 10 times higher than
claims for incidence of burglaries and thefts.
D’Ascoli then said
that the alarm’s ability to notify the fire department whether anyone is home
or none, and will be able to call for help is vital in the reduction of the
cost of these claims and as well to protect building occupants.
