• Intruders have the technical means of bypassing, jamming, or disconnecting all or part of the system.
• The power to the sensors is inadequate or disconnected.
• The sensors are not located in proper environmental/temperature conditions i.e. too close to a heat source.
Note: Inadequate maintenance is the most common cause of alarm failure; therefore, test your
system at least once per week to be sure the sensors and sirens are working properly.
Although having an alarm system may make you eligible for reduced insurance premiums, the
system is no substitute for insurance.
