Overview

The Copper Package is the most affordable home security package available with no up front costs and low monthly service. The package was designed to include the right amount of equipment required to provide a minimum level of protection. Most homes in the United States have three or less outside doors and most break-ins occur through an outside door. The Copper Package includes three door/window sensors to cover all the outside doors and then the motion detector is the backup protection you would need just in case someone entered your home through a window. Place the motion detector either in the most common living area or a central hallway in the home. You can customize your system by adding additional equipment at the time the order is placed or anytime in the future.

How it Works

Learn how our home security system and monitoring service work and learn how Protect America is able to offer the best home security products and services at such an affordable price.

Monitoring


Standard XT Monitoring
Standard XT Monitoring: $2 extra per month. Now you can upgrade our standard GE home security package to include the new GE Simon XT command station. This command station takes all the same great features of the standard command station including English voice feedback, a back-up battery, and internal siren, and improves upon them with a sleek new design, a smaller form factor, an LED display, and the ability to control 16 zones more than the standard command station (40 zones total).


Standard Monitoring
Standard Monitoring: All of our security system packages include a standard talking command station which uses your landline telephone connection to communicate with our monitoring facility. Anytime the security system is triggered, the command station sends a signal through the landline phone to our monitoring facility and notifies us about a problem in your home. Depending on the nature of the problem, our monitoring facility will respond to your alarm and dispatch the emergency authorities to your home if necessary. Please visit the How It Works page to learn more on the steps we take when responding to an alarm at your home.


Two-Way Voice Monitoring
Two-Way Voice Monitoring: $5 extra per month. Protect America offers Two-way Voice Monitoring Service with our GE security system. This service allows our monitoring center to communicate with you directly when you need it most. When the alarm is triggered at your home, the security system uses your landline phone to send the signal to our monitoring facility. Once we have received that signal, our monitoring facility will be able to communicate with you directly through the talking command station to verify the problem and respond accordingly. Two-Way Voice Monitoring Service comes with the GE Simon XT talking command station and requires a landline telephone connection.


HomePulse Broadband Monitoring
HomePulse Broadband Monitoring: $5 extra per month. No Phone, No Problem! Protect America is proud to offer our HomePulse Broadband Monitoring service with our home security system. Now you can connect your security system directly into an available port on your modem or router to provide your home and family with protection 24 hours, 7 days a week. With HomePulse, anytime the alarm is triggered, your security system sends the signal through your broadband Internet connection and notifies our monitoring facility of the problem at your house. The HomePulse Broadband Monitoring Service provides your security system with a much faster connection to the monitoring facility and is capable of notifying us of a problem at least four times faster than a landline connection. HomePulse requires an equipment upgrade from the standard command station. HomePulse is not compatible with the GE Simon XT command station. The presence of a Broadband Internet connection and an available port from a router or modem is necessary.


Cellular Monitoring
Cellular Monitoring: $15 extra per month. With our Cellular monitoring solution we offer true flexibility for home security monitoring service. There is no need for any type of home phone service or internet connection, because with cellular monitoring our GE home security system will have a dedicated wireless connection between your home and our central monitoring facility. When you select our Cellular monitoring service you will receive an upgraded GE Simon XT command station with a built-in GSM cellular device. You simply plug the command station into a power outlet and everything else is completely wireless. This service is not available in all areas and requires adequate cellular phone coverage in your area.
