can a job fire with a handicapp ?
Short of getting it from a local FD, this is probably your best bet.
There are many pro's and cons to consider, but first more questions have to be asked. For example, how often will the wireless devices be used, one of my clients Gold's Gym went with a wirless system to be cost effective, but I still hardwired thier front doors because even with the best batteries in the world they would only last a couple of months when used so many times dailey. Product also has a lot to do with it. In my opinion honeywell is a great product if your house is under 3000sq feet. Anything over that I suggest going with GE's NX product. Pros to Wireless: -No drilling or wires to run-Easily moved if renovation is done-Quick Installation time, less labor cost involved-With lithium batteries life can be extented for longer life-The wireless components are not susceptable to lightning Cons to Wireless:-Some wireless devices only have one-way communication, meaning they send the signal to the panel, but do not know if it was recieved or not. Rare but occurs.-Equipment is expesnive and offests money saved by installation time-Most warranties unless specified will not cover batteries-Poor installation can lead to false alarms If you go wireless make sure you go wih someone who is not a franchised security company. Often times they give you lifetime warranties but only have five year franchise rights, or have only been in business for a couple of years themselves. The way they earn thier money is by giving you equipment for free or nearly free and then selling your monitoring agreement. Gues what they go out of business no one will honor your warranty. Make sure the company tells you whatbrand equipment they will be installing and a list of the componenets is provided. Also, make sure the equipment is not proprietary. This simply means that if your not satisfied at the end of your monitoring term someone else can monitor your system without you having to replace the CPU (panel) and keypads.
