Communications Solutions For Every Family and Lifestyle

Protected...and Connected

Life can be so hectic! Between both of us working and having teenagers with busy schedules, it’s hard to keep track of everything that’s going on. Total Connect services have been a lifesaver. Now I know exactly when my children get home from school because I receive e-mail alerts. When the kids are home alone, we can make sure they’re okay by receiving video notification if someone is at the door and a text message when the door is open. We can even be notified if the liquor cabinet was opened. Total Connect helps us feel close to our family and home even when we can’t physically be there. We can’t imagine life without it!

The Picture-Perfect Vacation Home

Last year we purchased a vacation home. It’s a great investment, and we plan to spend a lot more time there when we retire in a few years. In the meantime, Total Connect has provided us with an easy way to keep tabs on our property when we can’t be there in person. We also have someone who checks up on the place once a week and can see exactly when he was there by checking the event history on the virtual keypad. Since the vacation home is in a warm climate, we’re aware of the risks for flood and temperature detection, and can receive immediate alerts if there is ever a cause for concern—letting us take action to help prevent damage. Total Connect has given us tremendous peace of mind by letting us check up on our “home away from home” whenever we want, wherever we are!

Bridging the Distance Gap

My parents retired and moved to Florida almost 20 years ago. Now Dad is gone and with Mom living alone, I can’t help but worry. Thanks to Total Connect, distance is no longer an obstacle when I need to know she’s safe...even though she’s 1,000 miles away. In fact, it can bridge the gap in ways that make me feel like I’m really there.

We had a camera placed in mom’s hallway, which she passes through constantly. It’s a great way to make sure she’s alright without infringing on her privacy. I can also use the event history to keep track of Mom’s comings and goings. She wears an emergency pendant, and should she ever press one of the buttons, the system can notify the central station and send a text message to my cell and an e-mail to my PC and PDA so I’ll know if she’s in trouble. Whether I’m at work, at home or traveling, I can log in and see that Mom really is okay thanks to Total Connect.

Here’s Looking at You, Kid!

As a working parent it can be so hard to balance things. When I’m in the office, I really miss my baby! Even though I have a terrific nanny, I feel so much better knowing I can take a look at my child whenever I want with Total Connect services. It’s so easy! All I have to do is log into the secure website and I can view any of the cameras my alarm company set up throughout my home. I can even receive e-mail alerts when the nanny leaves and returns from taking the baby for her morning walk. There’s nothing better than the peace of mind that comes with feeling connected...it’s the next best thing to being there.
