Summer is a time for nice weather, vacations, and creating memories with friends and family. While you ought to get out and enjoy life, you should also take precautions to preserve those cherished moments. Review our helpful summer safety tips and see how a modern security system can help safeguard your loved ones and your Hartford home. Don’t let lapses in security dampen your good times!

Keep Doors And Windows Secure In Your Hartford Home

There’s nothing like the summer breeze coming through your windows in the evenings. Just remember to shut and secure them if you depart! Your high-tech alarm system can assist by telling you if an access point is open. If you try to arm your property, but mistakenly leave a door or window unsecured, your system will notify you of the oversight. You can have warnings delivered through your mobile device’s home security app regardless of your location.

Stay Protected When You’re On Vacation

Countless families vacation during the summertime, leaving houses unoccupied for extended times. A smart security system with online accessibility will keep you connected, letting you watch live surveillance camera footage or recorded events through your smartphone. You can also set smart lights to turn on at different times to make your home appear occupied. If an urgent event arises, your system will warn you and your monitoring team right away.

Here are several other safety tips when travelling:

• Don’t broadcast your holiday on social networking sites. Even if you share to a private group, you can’t be certain who will access the content. Instead, share pictures of your vacation when you return.
• Ask a neighbor to watch over things and inform you if something suspicious arises.
• Make sure outside lights are set on a timer and turn on after nightfall and consider implementing motion-sensing lighting.

Have Fun In The Sun With These Extra Summertime Safety Tips

Safeguarding your home is essential, but you must also protect yourself and your family during summer’s many outdoor activities. You can do so by following these extra summertime safety tips:

• Supervise kids around pools, hot grills, fireworks, and busy streets
• Shield your skin by using sunscreen and reapply regularly, particularly when swimming
• Have someone in your home learn CPR
• Always go swimming with a another person
• Use helmets when biking, and life jackets when boating
