ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

Carbon Monoxide detectors - Carbon monoxide (CO) is the number one cause of poisoning deaths in the United States. According to the Journal of the American Medical Association, "There are approximately 2,100 unintentional deaths from carbon monoxide [CO] every year in the US and the use of CO Alarms could potentially prevent many of these fatalities." In addition, more than 10,000 CO injuries occur annually from this colorless, odorless and tasteless poison. In order to protect your self against carbon monoxide poisoning, we do offer a Carbon Monoxide detector that will be connected to your alarm system which will then notify the proper authorities that you have a Carbon Monoxide situation in your home.

Low Temperature Sensors
Winter is a time when we all love to take our families to warmer climates for vacation. We pack up our stuff, turn the heat down in the house and off we go. Did you ever wonder what would happen if the heat broke in your house and the pipes froze? Well, if this were to happen, you would arrive to a very unpleasant situation. Generally frozen pipes explode!!! A low temperature sensor installed properly in each heated zone of your home can protect you against freezing pipes. How do they work? Our technicians would program these devices to trip if the temperature in your home would go down to a pre-determined temperature (a temperature that is getting close to allowing your pipes to freeze), the alarm system would then send a warning sign to central station who would then get in touch with you, call a plumber for you, etc. Just another example of peace of mind that Rappaport Alarms, Inc. can offer you.

Waterbugs

Water bugs are wonderful devices that can help your home from being destroyed by a burst pipe or water heater.  How many times did we not know that we had a flood in our basement until it was too late?  We would strategically place these water bugs in your home or business to notify you if/when you have a water situation.

Pool Alarms

Pool alarms are designed to save lives! If you have a swimming pool in your yard you should ALWAYS install a pool alarm on any door that leads out to that area.  Not only is it a law in many towns, but it can save the life of a child.  They are simple stand alone devices that will be installed on your conventional door, sliding glass door, gate, etc.  If anyone were to open one of those doors without bypassing the device first (installed at a level where a child cannot bypass it) a loud screeching noise would notify you that a child is entering the pool area.  Any of us that has children is aware that it is impossible to keep an eye on them at all times, with a pool alarm — you have one last thing to worry about!

These are just a few examples of environmental protection devices....  If you have a specific concern give us a call and we will offer you a solution.
