Our monitoring staff will respond to alerts at your home and take appropriate action on your behalf, such as contacting emergency services or dispatching a security guard. You will typically pay a slightly higher monthly fee for this service, which covers the cost of the monitoring staff. Our PRO monitored clients are also eligible for a certificate of alarm that may save up to 20% discounted off their homeowner's insurance premium. Take note, that our DIY self-monitored accounts are not eligible for the certificate of alarm.
While DIY alarm monitoring is a more affordable option, it can require more effort and vigilance on the part of the homeowner. AlarmClub central station monitoring services offer peace of mind and a more comprehensive approach to security. Ultimately, the choice depends on your individual security needs and budget.
Compare Steps for Home Monitoring?
Step 1. A security sensor is triggered and is transmitted from the control panel to the end user and/or AlarmClub 24/7 Pro central monitoring station.
Step 2. With DIY self monitoring, the end user is responsible for dispatching the authorities when an alarm initiating event occurs.
With PRO central monitoring, the 24/7 live operator is responsible for following the dispatch protocol (listed in Step 3).
Step 3. If alarm signal is either confirmed valid, or if the end user is unreachable when the operator attempts to contact them, then dispatching procedures will occur (police, fire and/or medical authorities).
