Whether wired or wireless, a monitored home security system can produce a significant discount in home insurance premiums.<\/p>\n<p>Add a home security system can also mean adding home automation. This also contributes to lower premiums. The installed sensors don&rsquo;t just control the lights or temperature. They detect leaks of water or natural gas.

You can unlock doors remotely, as well, which reduces your family&rsquo;s vulnerability time.<\/p>\n<p>If you live in a gated community, adding the security system saves you even more.
