"Wanted to keep up with the new consumer trend of doorbell cameras. Got one for our front door and motion sensors for our main rooms inside. No extra fees or anything weird like that. Straightforward and honest process with this ADT dealer partner."

"Had the work finished within two days of putting in a request on HomeAdvisor. There was a slight issue with the work (due to a miscommunication on my part) but after I got in contact with Pristine Communication, they sent the tech back out to my house and we got the issue sorted out at no extra charge. The technician was knowledgeable, prompt, and very helpful. It's not always easy to install CAT6 in some older Pittsburgh homes (like mine), but the work that was done is absolutely stellar!"
"I recently had 1st Security install a system in my new house and so far have been very pleased with all aspects of the system, from the initial estimate to the installation to the functioning of the system itself. Jeremy did our initial estimate and provided us with a thorough explanation of the system. I already had done a significant amount of research comparing Alarm.com to ADT and some of the self-install options, but Jeremy was able to provide even more information and help me to understand better the pros and cons of each approach. Larry did our installation and also was very friendly and knowledgeable, explaining each step of the installation process and providing me with a tutorial at the end. My wife and I have had no issues with the system so far. It is very intuitive, and we have been able to customize it to fit our unique needs. I highly recommend considering 1st Security for anyone looking at installing, switching, or upgrading their security system."
"We purchased a Big Deal for installation of a new security system. Theo explained everything that would be included and performed an assessment of our home to make recommendations on what we would need. After the assessment, he installed everything immediately. The process took a couple hours, and he was very respectful and professional during that time. With the incredible deal, we were able to receive a standard security system with monitoring plus several home automation options, including video cameras and a thermostat. One item that we purchased was out of stock. When it was back in stock a week later, he contacted us and came back to install it immediately. We are very happy with the system we purchased. We feel we received a very robust system for a great price. We also love the app that came with the automation and like that we can continue to add on to our system if we choose."
"Self installed is the only option. System works fine for the most part though we have had problems with the motion sensor cameras. Not that I have anything against FrontPoint, but if I were replacing system, I would probably go with Simply Safe now that they have cameras."
The technician arrived on time - was very personable & knowledgeable. He installed the sensors on the locations that we wanted and made sure we knew how the system worked before he left. We previously had ADT installed and had it removed the next day - this system & installation is so much better! I felt completely safe in the home alone while my husband was in the hospital for 3 weeks.

Most residential range hoods have a CFM between 200 and 600. A higher CFM means your range hood is better at removing smoke and odors from your kitchen. The measurement ultimately depends on your stove’s width and heat output as well as the size of your kitchen.
Compared to the average size of a stove and kitchen, 350 CFM would be the minimum recommended rating for the average kitchen. However, selecting a higher CFM range hood would guarantee better ventilation to match your cooking habits, whether they’re minimal or extensive.
No, you can’t install just any microwave over your range. You have to get a specific type of microwave known as an over-the-range unit. These include venting and lighting features that you’ll need above your stovetop.
Although countertop units are more affordable, they won’t work for this type of installation. To avoid hazardous conditions in your kitchen, buy the right type of microwave for your needs.
No, range hoods do not necessarily have to be vented outside. Ductless or non-vented range hoods are available, which are common in condos or small kitchens where connecting to external ductwork isn't feasible. These hoods operate by taking in air, filtering it through charcoal filters to help eliminate smoke and odors, and then recirculating the cleaned air back into the kitchen. However, while these recirculating hoods are more versatile, venting to the outside is still the preferred and more effective method for completely removing smoke, odors, and gases from the room.
You should contact a local range hood installation professional to install your range hood and do the ductwork. Prices range from $50 to $100 per hour, with the total number of hours required varying based on the project complexity. Simple installations might take an hour or two, while more complicated ones can take four hours or more.
