ADT Home Alarm System Review

Call ADT 1-855-277-5198
The ADT home alarm system is actually the #2 provider on my list with Protect America being #1. ADT has the most customers mainly because of their name and how long they've been in the business. While ADT is still a good company, many people are exploring other, more reliable, cheaper options.
Reliability
ADT home burglar alarms have many safeguards in place in case of power outage or a cut line. In order for your system to work optimally, a landline phone is required. However, in the event the power goes out or someone ever cuts your line to break in. Signals will be transmitted through a mini cellular antenna on your roof.
ADT home alarm system also have multiple monitoring centers throughout the US. So in the event one center ever goes down, all signals are promptly transmitted to another operational center. That is actually a big deal considering other alarm monitoring company's don't do this.
Range of Protection
ADT offers a full range of protection. Almost as much as Protect America. They offer protection against, fire, flood, power outage, burglary, freezing, failing health, and carbon monoxide.
Expansion Capabilities
Because ADT is a wired system it becomes more difficult to add other devices such as cameras, extra sensors, remotes, keypads, etc. Still possible with extra fees, this system isn't as flexible as a complete wireless system.
Monitoring
ADT home burglar alarms offer 24 hour 7 days a week service with multiple monitoring centers throughout the country.
Price
ADT home alarm systems rates start at $35.99 and ADT will pay your deductible up to $500 if your home is ever burglarized. ADT has also been running a promotion on equipment and installation for new customers. Instead of paying for the equipment and installation, you pay $299 with a $200 mail-in rebate. Not too bad, but Protect America's system is a lot less invasive and it's free!
Contract
ADT offers a standard 36 month contract.
Warranty
ADT home burglar alarm service comes with an outstanding 6 month money back guarantee! That means, if at your 6th month of service, you are dissatisfied with your home security alarm monitoring service. You can cancel and get a FULL refund. Installation, any equipment costs, as well as your 6 months of monthly payments back! A first in the industry..
ADT is a reliable company. However, they're invasive installations and vulnerable wired systems don't appeal to me that well. One thing I do love about them is their outstanding warranty. No other company has that! Overall, if you don't fancy Protect America's do-it-yourself style installation, then I would definitely give ADT a call directly at 1-855-277-5198
