ADT home security systems are backed by more than 145 years of experience. As the leader in home security, ADT can help you customize a home security system with easy-to-use equipment and special security features to meet your safety needs. We have service centers nationwide that can install an ADT home security system within 24 hours in most areas. Once your home is equipped with our top-of-the-line system, it is connected to a network of ADT Monitoring Centers nationwide which deliver non-stop security monitoring 365 days a year. All of our installation technicians are internal employees, and not third-party contractors. You can count on your Security Advisor to take the time to set up your system properly, help you understand how the system works, and help make sure your home and family are thoroughly protected.

"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."

Puget Sound's Home Service Heroes! Offering Plumbing, HVAC, Electrical, Duct & Sewer Services Hunt’s Services is a certified and licensed plumbing, heating, cooling, electrical, duct and sewer services company. We offer same day repairs and emergency services, with over 2,600 five-star reviews by our customers in Tacoma, Federal Way, Auburn, Puyallup, South Hill, Kent, Bellevue, Redmond, Seattle, Olympia and the nearby areas. We take pride in serving King, Pierce and parts of Kitsap and Thurston Counties for both residential and commercial needs with honesty, integrity, and dedicated service.

"had a deeply frustrating experience with Hunt’s HVAC Services that reflects a serious lack of professionalism and customer care. They contacted me early last week to schedule service for my HVAC system, and I agreed to their preferred date—the following Monday. I received a confirmation email on Sunday and a reminder Monday morning for the upcoming afternoon appointment. I drove 1.5 hours to the service site, only to be met with confusion and poor communication. When I called at 12:30 to ask for a specific arrival time, I was told the technician would contact me 30 minutes before arriving—but they couldn’t give me a time estimate. I waited another 2.5 hours before receiving a call informing me that no technician would be coming at all. My only options were to reschedule or cancel. I asked to speak with a manager and was placed on long hold. Eventually, I was told the manager was “too busy” to speak with me and would call me later. That call never came. This experience was a complete waste of time and resources, and the lack of accountability was appalling. Hunt’s HVAC Services failed to honor their commitment, communicate effectively, or show basic courtesy. I strongly advise others to stay away from this business."

"Project started great and everyone was very friendly. Toward the end of the project I found things that were damaged in my home and a number of items that Exo Electric failed to complete. As soon as I mentioned these items, their attitudes shifted instantly and then weren’t so friendly. I hired them to remove all of the dangerous knob and tube wiring, replace the panel inside, swap all switches & outlets and replace the box and mast outside. The knob and tube wiring is still in my house, they installed light switches crooked, did not swap every outlet like they said they would, left a major outlet in the kitchen dead-no power to that outlet still to this day, installed that outside box cooked and not flush to the house, the mast is touching my new roof done a few weeks ago and bending shingles, the box inside is not installed properly and does not latch shut. They said they were going to bring a label maker to make the box nice but instead wrote everything by hand and not clearly, quite sloppy actually. They attempted to charge me an exorbitant amount amount for additional work to remedy these issues and I said no. They went on to say that they were not coming back and that the job is marked as complete. This. Reach of contract on their part has caused multiple issues with other projects including the roof, siding and gutters. Customer service from this company was horrendous and they are anything but professional. The GM Cory Hessiltine was extremely unprofessional on our 1 call, using profanity and not allowing me to speak. He went on a rant and essentially “told me how it is”. This company is run by sleazy sleazy sales people, I was clearly just a number to this company and they do not care about helping their customers, their only concern is getting paid- not doing what is right. Don’t make the same mistake that I did in hiring these amateurs."

"Called Elemental Electric for complete electrical panel replacement and Jesse showed the next morning. He gave me a thorough estimate that was half the cost of another company estimate. I wanted a 30 amp generator hookup installed and he gave me a great deal and added it to the job. I also needed an outdoor electrical outlet added due to a tankless water heater I was having installed and Elemental Electric installed it while they were replacing the panel. The job was done quickly, professionally and at a reasonable price. The electricians who performed the work were professional and cordial and worked quickly. I have more electrical work to get done in the near future and I won't hesitate to use Elemental Electric for that work!"

Home Security Systems questions, answered by experts

There are several strategic ways to lower your home insurance premium. The primary one is to shop around and get quotes every few years to make sure you’re getting the best deal. Also, sometimes bundling your auto and homeowner’s insurance will get you a discount on both. Finally, try to keep your credit score up; many homeowner insurance companies use credit scores to generate quotes.

If you want to make more home security upgrades to your perimeter, consider installing a smart automatic gate opener and a security camera. These will allow you to see who’s at the gate and open it for them (or not). You can learn how to install an automatic gate opener yourself or hire a professional for a little extra.

Yes, these services often increase home value by preventing moisture-related issues and enhancing the usable space in basements or crawlspaces.

You should be able to use your smart doorbell and access your video feed without a subscription. Subscriptions give you special features, such as night vision, downloading, and automatically saving footage for a set amount of days. It’s a good idea to compare plans among different providers before you commit. 

To prevent false alarms, motion detectors need proper placement and settings. Start by installing them away from pets and windows where outside movement could set them off. Adjust the sensitivity settings to reduce the likelihood of it detecting minor motions. Consider using dual-tech sensors, for example passive infrared (PIR) and microwave technology, to improve accuracy and reduce false alarms. And don’t forget regular maintenance—cleaning the sensor and checking for any obstructions can go a long way in making sure your detectors run smoothly.
