The EMC Security monitoring center received a two-way medical alert alarm from the pendant worn by a customer who lives in Gainesville, Georgia. The customer is a 90-year old woman who lives alone. After falling and lying on her kitchen floor, she needed help. She immediately pressed the button on her two-way voice pendant that works with her EMC Security Medical Alert system. Speaking directly into the pendant that she was wearing, she was able to tell the monitoring center what happened. While on the line with one monitoring center operator, another operator was able to send emergency medical response teams to the customer’s home and contact her family members as well. Fortunately, the customer will be just fine. She has the EMC Security Medical Alert System that saved her from what could have been a terrible fate. The EMC Security Medical Alert System gives elderly loved ones the help they need when they need it, as well as giving the family members the peace of mind they deserve.

EMC Security Medical Alert Pendant Saves Another Elderly Customer!
Wednesday, February 22nd, 2012Power Loss Signal to EMC Security Foils Thieves Plans!
Tuesday, February 14th, 2012If a customer’s home or business ever suffers a loss of power, EMC Security receives power loss signals, and notifies customers as an service at no additional cost to the customer. In this day and age, we are seldom surprised that thieves will steal anything not locked down, even a power box. Recently, the EMC Security monitoring center received a power loss signal from the business of a customer protected in Commerce, Georgia. We notified the customer who traveled out to the business and discovered the theft of the power box from his business. The monitoring center contacted police for him and he reported the incident. It would appear that the thieves may have been setting up the customer to be robbed later that day when the system batteries died. This is another great way that EMC Security continues to protect homes and businesses across Metro Atlanta and North Georgia!
EMC Security Continues to Stop Burglars from Victimizing Homes!
Tuesday, February 14th, 2012The EMC Security local monitoring center received an alarm from the front door of a customer’s home in Gainesville. After attempting to contact the customers, the monitoring center immediately dispatched the police to the home and notified an emergency contact person on the customer’s contact list. The customer called back and notified that the front door dead bolt had been tampered with and is no longer functional. Fortunately, even though the customer had an additional deadbolt for door security, it was no match for a burglar trying to break into the home. Only a security system will give the customer the additional security the home needs. The alarm functioned properly helping protect the home, scaring off the burglar, and sending police directly to the home to check the perimeter of the home.
Another Life Saved by EMC Medical Alert System!
Tuesday, February 14th, 2012The EMC Security monitoring center received an alarm from the medical alarm pendant of a customer in Monroe, Georgia. The customer was home alone and needed help getting up after suffering a fall. Using the two-way voice communication capability on the pendant, the customer was able to contact the monitoring center and let them know that he needed help getting up and that he was in pain from the fall. The operator stayed on the line speaking with the customer while a 2nd operator dispatched emergency medical technicians to the customer’s home. The operator also notified the customer’s wife who met authorities at the home. Both operators stayed on the line with the customer until the EMTs arrived. Thankfully, this customer has the EMC Medical Alert system and two way voice pendant in the home. The EMC Medical Alert System continues to provide the peace of mind to families and loved ones across Metro Atlanta and North Georgia.

Duluth Home Burglary Thwarted by EMC Security system!
Wednesday, February 8th, 2012The EMC Security local monitoring center received an alarm from the home security system of a customer in Duluth. The alarms began with motion detectors located in the foyer and kitchen area of the home. The monitoring center immediately contacted the customer and notified her of the alarms. The customer indicated that no one was home and requested police dispatched to her home. A few minutes later the customer called back to let the monitoring center know that her husband was at the home with responding police officers who found the screen taken off a window and the window open. Thankfully, there was nothing taken from the home as the security system worked properly and prevented loss. This Duluth customer had multiple motion detection devices as a part of her home security system. It is most beneficial to have motion detectors as they can help verify an conditions in the home. Having multiple motion devices, always installed on separate zones by EMC Security, can help verify an alarm condition in the home. Please always consider having enough motion detectors to your home as they add to the level of protection your security system helps provide to your home and family.
Life Saved by EMC Security System!
Wednesday, January 25th, 2012The EMC Security recently received a call from a customer in Loganville, Georgia who asked not to be identified. The customer called to tell us that she believes her EMC Security system had saved her life. She was at home and her security system was armed. She had suffered a medical emergency as she was home alone and not able to move well. Fortunately, she quickly thought to intentionally activate her home alarm to get help. Her dogs began barking and her reaction was to rip the alarm control off the wall. Both actions immediately sent an alarm signal to our local central station who then dispatched emergency response teams.
First responders had to use forceful entry into her home to get her the medical attention she needed. The customer was rushed to the hospital and nearly died. Fortunately, after a few surgeries and a stay in the hospital, she will be back at home resting. Shortly before one of those surgeries, the customer called our representative at EMC Security to express her gratitude and to tell us that she would not be alive today, if she did not have our system. EMC Security would like to express our extreme gratitude to her and to say how thankful we are that she is alive. We wish her a speedy recovery as she is in our thoughts and prayers.

The Importance of Using & Arming Your Security System!
Friday, January 13th, 2012January 11, 2012- EMC Security received a call from a customer in Loganville, Georgia. She said her house had been burglarized yesterday afternoon. She had forgotten to arm the security system before she left the home. As a result, the alarm system was not activated and no alarms were sent to the monitoring center when the burglars struck her home. She stated that they sustained substantial losses from the burglary. The last signal received on the system was on December 23rd and that signal was a burglary alarm.
Unfortunately, everyday distractions occur that cause people to simply
forget to arm the alarm system.
Here are a few tips that may help you remember to arm your system:
-Try setting the system on “chime” so that you hear an a beep or other indicator of the alarm that could help remind you to set the alarm when leaving.
-Set reminders on your cell phone, or try other reminders such as taping a reminder note to the doors from which you exit the home.
-Contact an EMC Security Representative to learn about our exclusive Secure Path™ Technology which allows remote access of your security system from your smartphone or computer, anywhere you have an internet connection. With Secure Path Technology you have the ability to arm and disarm your system from your smart phone or computer, anywhere there is an internet connection. You can also be notified via email or text message anytime there is activity with your home security system.
Technology Brings You Closer to Home
Friday, January 13th, 2012Advances in security industry technology and the internet have opened up a world of new possibilities for consumers. The security industry seized upon t
he available technology to build value among their customers. The advent of the security system app quickly grew to include the control of thermostats, lights, and locks. Customers can now control the electronics in their home from anywhere they have an internet connection.
EMC Security Sales Manager, Michael Morton says, “the early adopters of this technology were ‘techies’, but now we’re seeing customers from all walks of life electing to add these services to their home.” Morton credits the low cost of the service and the convenience of remote system controls with the rapid growth in the “connected” services demand. EMC Security has developed our exclusive Secure Path Technology™ that allows these types of connected services.
Research shows that not only do consumers find the technology convenient but they’re also learning that the thermostat controls can significantly reduce power consumption. By allowing the security system to set the thermostat back four degrees automatically when the security system is armed, the average consumer can save $180 per year in “wasted power,” according to Energy Star.
EMC Security will be showcasing this new technology at the North Atlanta Home Show at the Gwinnett Center on February 10th, 11th and 12th. Please visit us at the show for live demonstrations of these services.
