    Date: 2010.11.19 | Tags:

    Technology is allowing us the opportunity to make our homes safer and smarter. Now with ADT Pulse out on the market, on-the-go, mobile homeowners have an easy and affordable way to add security to their homes. All while enjoying the benefits of home automation.

    Here’s how:

    Remote Arming and Disarming: Did you forget to arm your alarm system when you left home? Do you remember if you gave the housekeeper an alarm code to use while you are away? No problem. ADT Pulse allows you to arm and disarm your alarm system from any web-enabled computer or device such as an Android, Blackberry, or any other Smartphone. ADT Pulse even has an app for iPhone and iPad users.

    Home Automation: Do you want the temperature to be cool and comfortable when you get home from work, but you don’t want to leave the air conditioning running all day? With ADT Pulse, you can easily change the temperature in your home without even being there.

    Energy Efficiency: ADT Pulse offers you the ability to schedule when you would like your indoor and outdoor lighting to turn on, and when you would like some or all of the lighting to turn off. This not only makes your home more energy-efficient, it  helps cut down on home energy costs, and it also adds a bit of extra security to your home.

    Email and Text Alerts: Do you want to know when your child got home from school? Would you like to be notified immediately when your alarm goes off, and what zone was violated? You can set up your ADT Pulse to send you instant notifications by email or text, along with video clips, for events such as burglar alarms, carbon monoxide and fire alarms, flood alarms, and more.

    Remote Video Monitoring: Gone are the days of complex camera systems and recording devices. ADT Pulse simplifies video monitoring and allows users to view their cameras from the comfort of their home, or while they are away from home, via any web-enabled computer, device, or Smartphone.

    Interactive Touchscreen: Instead of using a traditional alarm keypad, ADT Pulse provides an interactive touchscreen that puts your home automation and security features right at your fingertips.

    Whether it is arming or disarming your system, adjusting the climate or lighting in your home, viewing video coverage, or going over past alarm events, your ADT Pulse interactive touchscreen will provide you with all the options you need to make your home more energy-efficient and safer than you ever thought possible.

    ADT Pulse is currently available in Select, Advantage, and Premier packages, which combines home security and home automation into one affordable solution.
