At ADT, and SafeStreets we understand that choosing a home security system is an important decision. To help you make an informed choice, we have compiled a list of frequently asked questions about ADT monitoring. Here are the answers to some of the most common queries homeowners have:
ADT monitoring refers to our 24/7 professional monitoring service, where our dedicated team of security experts keeps a watchful eye on your home. They receive signals from your security system and quickly respond to any potential security threats or emergencies, ensuring a swift and appropriate course of action is taken.
ADT monitoring works by integrating your security system with our state-of-the-art monitoring centers. When a sensor or alarm is triggered, such as a motion detector or smoke detector, it sends a signal to our monitoring center. Our trained professionals assess the situation and take the necessary steps, such as contacting emergency services or notifying designated contacts, to ensure your safety.
Each system is different. This means that the non-emergency signal may mean something different depending on the system. Refer to your security system user’s manual to assist you. If you’re unsure which system you have, log into MyADT.com and look at the System Information section on your Overview page.
