Security by Cable company sandwich by plumber

Yesterday a man called in and said his insurance company won't renew his policy unless he adds temperature sensors to his alarm system in Park City. This is the second time I have heard about this. He has a cable company that provides his security system and they don't provide temp sensors. The insurance company wants him to remove the system he got from his cable company and install one that is monitored by a local UL listed Monitoring Station. (Peak Alarm happens be be a local UL listed Monitoring Station) Having your cable company provide your security system and monitoring is kinda like getting a sandwich from your plumber. Hey they may be getting better at it although Peak Alarm concentrates on Alarm Systems, Guard/Patrol, AV and we do it well. Peak can provide: Temp sensors, water sensors, CO, Smoke, gas, motion, status contacts, gun movement sensors or sensors to tell you if the stove has been left on.

The Cable TV company told him that they could not add temperature sensors to their security system. They only do certain things and they are limited. Hey they are good a cable TV and so when they do other things they are limited. They can bundle and give great pricing although you need to ask what exactly are you getting?

You can call me about security systems and alarm systems because I have been involved in the industry for over 20 years but I cannot help you with information relating to other areas of your life. Our systems are becoming more integrated with home entertainment all the time and we can integrate them into those systems, our AV department can install large theater systems in your home and we can integrate the security into those systems.
