Unnecessary calls for police service due to false burglar alarms have grown into a tremendous problem. Burglar alarms serve as useful deterrents to crime , but the amount of time and money police spend responding to the 7 million to 15 million false alarm calls every year has become intolerable to many law enforcement agencies.
False alarms are caused primarily by user error. Solutions currently being tried or proposed by law enforcement agencies and local governments are:
Alarm verification User training Local ordinances State laws Fines Permits Non-response by police Private response Better equipment Dispatch cancellation
EAGLE Two-Way Audio Verification products significantly lower false alarms. Central station monitoring connected by audio to your home allows you to, in your own voice, cancel an alarm that was triggered unintentionally.
