FrontPoint Security Weighs in on Home Automation
McLean, VA (PRWEB) November 14, 2013 -- FrontPoint Security, the nationwide leader in wireless home security, releases insights into the home automation trend and its long-term effect on home security.
In 2012, the global home automation market was valued at $3.6 billion. According to Global Industry Analysts, it’s projected to steadily grow by 24.5 percent from 2013 until 2019. Home automation is regularly integrated into an alarm system. This shift marks an extremely important time for the key home security players.
“As the consumer looks to pair home automation with a security system and home awareness features, it is essential for the industry to evolve,” said FrontPoint Security Co-Founder and Senior Advisor Peter Rogers. “Our commitment to provide customers with the newest and safest features in home security is only aided by the growth of this industry. By adding home automation to home security, FrontPoint allows its customers to feel not only protected, but also connected.”
Today, most home security systems are equipped for home automation. The FrontPoint system includes automation capabilities, which include remote control and access to lights, thermostats and door locks. In addition to saving the consumer some money, these features add another layer of home protection. Light control, for instance can be used to make the home appear occupied, warding off burglars even if no one is present.
“Innovations in home automation are a key factor to the future of home security,” added Rogers. “As burglars find new ways to break into homes, home security needs to remain a step ahead. We are dedicated to using advances in home automation to improve our product and ensure the safety of our customers.”
Home security companies continue to improve their systems utilizing the available technology, thus making homes safer. Alarm.com, a partner of FrontPoint Security, was the first to introduce location-based home automation with its Geo-Services. This feature allows customers even more control and flexibility over their home alarm systems and thermostats. Instead of setting specific times, the location of the user and their smartphone is used to automatically adjust settings whether they’re arriving or leaving.
