What is a False Dispatch?

A false alarm dispatch can occur when authorities are notified of a potential emergency in progress at a home or business and after a timely investigation, the responding officer finds no evidence that warranted an emergency response from authorities. If there are too many false dispatches, they can place an unnecessary drain on police resources.

What can I do to reduce false alarms?

  • Call us if you accidently trip your alarm.
Its true that we will call you if we get an alarm signal from you.  But if we don't get through we dispatch the police.  If you call us this is one way to guarantee the authorities will not be dispatched.
  • Maintain your alarm system
Your alarm system will require basic maintenance from time to time.  This includes replacing the batteries as recommended.  Cleaning detection devices including smoke detectors.  We offer full service and maintenance plans to keep your systems in top condition.
  • Keep in mind environmental factors
Some security devices are effected by the environment they are put in.  If you have a party and hang things from the ceiling, or over a sensor there is a chance your alarm will false.  If you have pets that run loose in your home/business they can also be a source of  false alarms.
  • Pet immune detectors are only so good.
With the advent of pet motion detectors, false alarms have been significantly reduced.  However if a pet can get close to the device it will still cause a false alarm.  or if you have multiple pets running loose they can also trigger an alarm.

for more information on false alarms and what you can do to prevent them, give us a call.
