Home Alarm Company on Long Island, Total Security, Shares Four Key Insurance Benefits of Installing a Burglar Alarm …

Elmont, New York (PRWEB) May 29, 2014

Total Security Integrated Systems, the leading New York installer of home alarm systems throughout New York City and Long Island, now shares four ways that installing a burglar alarm system in your home can reap big benefits on your insurance rates.

Home Security:

Home owners can receive up to 15% off their insurance policy (depending on the provider) if they have a home security system installed. Rates vary and will depend on the area's crime rates. For example, a home owner living in a low crime area, such as quiet neighborhood close to a fire station, will experience lower insurance rates than a high crime area.

Fire Safety:

Many insurance companies will offer discounts for home owners that take action to enhance their fire safety. They tend to favor homeowners and business owners who install fire protection, carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, fire escapes, heat detectors, sprinkler system and fire extinguishers.

Home Maintenance:

Renovated and newly built houses may qualify for an insurance discount. A homeowner who installs new pipes or fencing around a pool area may qualify. A house that has a hail resistant roof and is classified as a class 4 may also receive a discount. In addition, a house can be eligible for an age of wiring discount, depending on how long ago it was installed.

Cheaper Insurance Rates:

Business and homeowners can receive lower insurance rates if they invest in a security system from Total Security. However, homeowners are advised to shop around independently for the best rates before purchasing insurance for their home or business.
