Can you side step false alarms in Long Island?
Like diagnosing any concern, the initial step is to reference the guidebook. Ensure all alarms and sensors are connected properly from your end by:
- Performing a checkup with your smart hub.
- Manually inspect each component to make sure it didn't become dislodged or need a battery change.
- Inspect your preset schedules to ensure that your system isn’t arming at inappropriate times.
- Ensure all recently added smart components are installed in the proper fashion and aren't disrupting your system.
Contact your Vivint agent if you are still having trouble cutting down false alarms in your Long Island security system. They'll gladly send out a tehnician to check your equipment.
Inspect your entry points
If your installation checks out alright, the ensuing course of action is to do a sweep of your property. Are all your windows and doors shut tight, or do you find some mistakenly open? If an entrance stays unlatched, it could trip a sensor. In the event your household routinely neglects to shut an entrance, you might want to install a smart lock that locks automatically when the alarm is activated. Unfortunately, windows take additional physical effort, especially if you have a loved one who enjoys to fall asleep with a cracked window. Thankfully, your Vivint alarm system makes it simple to deactivate that sensor while still shielding the rest of the house.
