I use to work as a alarm agent in Calif. They are very popular our there. They are easy to understand and operate. You may also see if any of the alarm copmanies offer free security patrol for the first year with installation. This is a very good service if offered. Also you might check to see where your service is being monitored. Most of them are monitored through the company and they will call you before dispatching the police. This service if you choose will save youo money because most police departments only offer 3 or 4 flase alarms in a year then they start charging per alarm.
