Are home security systems worth the price?

• <div><p>A home security system could save you up to 20% on your home insurance policy, so the initial expense may actually even out over time. Beyond that, it’s hard to put a price on peace of mind. If you live in a high-crime area, you may want to prioritize home safety. It depends on the value of your assets and your individual preference.</p></div>

Can someone hack into your home security system?

• <div><p>If your home security system relies on the internet for operational purposes, then there’s a chance someone could hack into it. Fortunately, the chances of hacking occurring are low, but it’s something to be aware of. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/are-wifi-security-cameras-safe.htm">Wired security cameras</a> or cameras that store data on a local server and not a cloud-based server have an even lower probability of getting hacked.</p></div>

Q: How do I install a smart switch?

• <div><p>Smart switches require a neutral wire for correct installation. Neutral wires aren't typically present in a single-pole switch configuration, so this project can be a tricky one for average DIYers. In most cases, you should hire an electrician to run a new circuit or adapt your existing wiring to include a neutral connection to accommodate a smart switch. </p></div>

Q: What are the disadvantages of a smart irrigation system?

• <div><p>Smart irrigation systems are more expensive than traditional sprinkler timers, and their setup can be effort-intensive for some homeowners. For instance, depending on the type of controller you choose, you may need to bury soil moisture sensors or install other equipment on-site that helps your smart sprinkler controller work. However, given their water and cost savings over time, many homeowners still consider a smart controller a worthy investment.</p></div>

Q: Which is better, a wireless or wired alarm system?

• <div><p>This is the topic of much debate, though there is no &ldquo;better,&rdquo; as it depends on personal preferences. Some of the components of a wireless system keep working when the power goes out, as they are battery-powered. On the other hand, a wireless system typically connects to your modem and router. Wired systems use landlines to communicate, which never go out on their own unless they&rsquo;re physically cut. </p></div>

"Bought security through ADT mainly for the automation options that come with the system. My spouse loves being able to turn on and off our lights in different areas of the house while we are gone. We travel often, so giving the illusion that we are home is a good deterrent."

"I regret ever choosing SafeStreets. The whole process was frustrating from the start. The technician who came to install the system was late, didn’t answer my questions properly, and left my house a mess. When I reached out to customer service, I was put on hold for over an hour, only to get a half-baked answer. Save yourself the trouble and look elsewhere."
