- Smoke detectors: Installing smoke detectors inside the house and throughout the home will help you detect the early signs of a fire and control it before it spreads.
- Local fire and burglar alarm: A locally approved burglar alarm will alert you of the possible threats on your property and discourage burglars from breaking in which secures your property and identifies the fire at the source before it spreads.
- Monitored and approved security and fire system: You should take your home's security to the next level by getting a monitored security system to prevent burglary and vandalism.
