And whatever else worries you
Let Magen monitor your fire, smoke, burglar alarms and your sprinkler
systems too. An alarm that sounds, is effective only if someone is
there to hear it. When your house or business are uninhabited, no one
will call the police or fire service for you. You need uninterrupted monitoring
to protect your property. At Magen, we analyze the data that reaches
our Monitoring Service in real time and identify the probability of a true emergency.
If the alarm appears to be true, we notify the fire or police department to
dispatch forces to your premises and simultaneously contact you. If the probability
of a true emergency is low, we inform you of the alarm and save you the cost
and the penalty.
When a burglar breaks in or a fire breaks out, you want a rapid response from
the police or fire department. But if it's a false alarm, you want to avoid
an unnecessary visit, because it can cost you big. And if your sprinkler system
overreacts and damages your merchandise, you want to stop it fast. For a false
alarm you may have to pay a fine and you may even be penalized if the authorities
decide to withhold their services in the future.
The police authorities are getting tough on business. They claim that they
get too many false alarms, so they penalize you if they come around and find
no just cause. The fire department isn't doing that yet, but it can't be far
behind. There are claims that about 20% of their dispatches are to false alarms
and each of these costs them about $500. And since it's natural to ignore calls
if too many nuisance calls come in, you may suffer even if you aren't fined.
Security systems installed by Magen can be equipped with devices to
detect any attempts to cut your phone line. If you are equipped with
a Magen Security System, Magen's Monitoring Service can identify a cut in your
line, whether accidental or deliberate, and alert you to the danger before any
break-in attempt is made.
If the water pressure inside your sprinkler system drops, this indicates that
there is insufficient water to put out a fire. We can notify you of this condition
so you can take the necessary precautions until water pressure rises.
The low cost of Magen's Monitoring Service is easily covered by the
reduction of losses thanks to rapid dispatch by Magen's Monitoring Service and
the minimization of damage resulting from faulty sprinklers, by the drop in
false alarm fines, and by the uninterrupted police and fire protection provided
by avoiding false alarms,.
Magen would like to remind you of the need to carry out periodic testing of
your sprinkler and alarm systems, as required by fire authorities. This is not
only a legal requirement but is for your own safety and for that of your employees
and customers. It also protects your merchandise and your property. The sprinkler
system helps contain the fire and prevents catastrophic damage to property.
You invested a lot in your sprinkler system; be sure that it works when you
need it! And remember to test your emergency lighting at the same time; staff
and customers may become disoriented during a fire and emergency lighting can
help them find their way out.
Contact Magen today for better protection.
