Hey guys, I just moved into a new build home that came with Interlogix Networx. Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions you guys have!
Feel free to talk to me like I'm in grade school because that's my level of understanding about home security. I've never even had a traditional alarm in my home growing up. I'm moderately tech saavy but not skilled enough to take on the impressive DIY projects that you guys are capable of. I don't have a huge interest in the bells and whistles of home automation beyond home security
My wife works from home so it's very important that she and I feel like she is safe. Put simply, I want to have it monitored (I think?) and any additional crime deterrents that would help beyond my barky dog
New home has existing system. It appears to be wireless because there's a Router with antenna inside some locked wall-box in one closet and there are sensors outside front door and throughout house. There appear to be 5 zones (front door, door to garage, movement in living room, back door, door from master to porch).
Where do I go from here? Can most companies utilize the existing Networx or install their own systems? Can I avoid annual or 3 year contracts? What costs am I looking at?
Thank you so much
