Summer Safety Tips To Safeguard Your Napa Home And Family

Summer is a time for warm weather, traveling, and creating memories with family and friends. While you should venture out and enjoy life, you should also take steps to preserve those cherished moments. Check out our helpful summer safety tips and learn how the right security system can help protect your family and your Napa home. Don’t permit a security lapse to ruin your enjoyment!

Keep Access Points Secure In Your Napa Home

Nothing compares to the summer breeze flowing through your windows in the evenings. Just remember to secure them if you depart! Your high-tech alarm system can help by telling you if an entry point isn’t secure. If you attempt to arm your home, but accidentally leave a window or door ajar, your system will alert you of the security breach. You can have warnings delivered through your smartphone’s home security app no matter where you are.

Stay Connected When You’re Away

Many families vacation during the summer, leaving residences unoccupied for extended times. A smart home security system with online accessibility will keep you connected, permitting you to see real-time surveillance streams or recorded clips through your mobile device. You might also program smart lights to switch on at seemingly random times to make your house look occupied. If a triggered event arises, your system will alert you and your monitoring specialists at once.

Here are some other safety tips when travelling:

  • Don’t broadcast your travels on online platforms. Even when sharing privately, you can’t control who will access the details. As an alternative, post photos of your vacation once you get back.
  • Invite a neighbor to keep an eye on things and alert you if any suspicious activity occurs.
  • Make sure outdoor lights are switch on after nightfall and consider implementing motion-sensing options.

Enjoy Yourself With These Additional Summertime Safety Tips

Securing your home is essential, but you also need to protect yourself and your family during summer’s many outdoor activities. You can do so by adhering to these summertime safety tips:
