Top 4 Reasons to Get a Video Doorbell
When it comes to safety, there’s nothing we depend on more than our abodes, not only do they contain most of our possessions but it’s what we rely on to keep our families safe.
And with
recent increase in crime throughout many cities in Georgia, it’s clear that we need to be taking precautions to protect ourselves and our homes at all costs.Years ago, well-known tricks like leaving lights on while you were away from home were strategies we might have depended on to deter unwanted visitors, but times have changed and homeowner are forced to start thinking bigger.
Video doorbells have quickly become a homeowner’s best option when it comes to keeping opportunistic burglars and thieves at bay. Not only will this give you peace of mind but installing these extra security measures could even lower the cost of your home insurance.
Let’s take a look at the top reasons why you should consider upgrading to a video doorbell – the latest in smart home technology to protect your house, family and valuables.
1. Record events and provide evidence
A video doorbell is comprised of a set of internet-connected security tools and equipment which can send data about movement and trespassing to your smartphone via an app. This system allows you to monitor what goes on outside your home. Video doorbells can ensure you know who is on your property without you having to go to the door and will lessen an opportunity for a thief to enter your home.
2. Check on your property from any location
Most video doorbells
link to your smartphone and make it possible for you to connect and monitor real-time footage from almost anywhere. This functionality gives you a much highersense peace of mind when you go away and can also give you an opportunity to thwart any potential attempts of burglary to your home. Additionally, many video doorbells include the option to remotely set off an alarm to scare trespassers away and draw attention to your home.3. Tower home insurance premiums
Your home insurance is usually broken down into two sections: buildings insurance and contents insurance. The first covers any damage to the structure of your home, which also includes the replacement cost of pipes, garages
and fences, whereas contents insurance covers internal possessions and furnishings.In some cases, installing a video doorbell becomes an incentive for insurers to give you a discount on your coverage. Having an added layer of protection around your home and its contents, along with the reduced opportunity for theft or damage to your property usually appeals to insurance companies because they may see your property as less of a risk, and not claiming on your insurance can lower it over time.
4. It can increase property value
When it comes to selling your home, the likelihood of getting a good deal increase if the home includes smart home security gadgets, such as video doorbells. One good suggestion is to add this extra protective layer to your home to make it more appealing to would-be buyers to help promote the assurance of a lesser chance of burglary and theft in the event that criminals are made aware the additional security measures being taken to monitor them.
Although some smart home security may seem expensive, with an increase in interest for these protective measures, there are now more affordable models coming out. So, everybody can guard their homes and families, whether they’re in or not.
3 Ways to Cut Insurance Costs with Security
Many homeowners assume that living in a safe neighborhood eliminates the risk for a burglary, which is not the case. In the unfortunate event that they find their valuables stolen or damaged after a home invasion, homeowners could issue a claim against their home insurance policy — and more often than not, filing a claim results in homeowners seeing a rise in their insurance premiums.
According to the market data, there were more than 3.7 million burglaries in 2003 – 2007, the equivalent of one burglary every 8 seconds, according to alarm.org, run by the Electronic Security Association. For these reasons, homeowners should consider whether installing a home security system is worth the investment, not only to protect their family and
possessions, but also to help possibly lower the cost of insurance.Here are three ways to reduce insurance costs with a security system:
1. Boost Home Safety
Insurers may provide a discount on insurance premiums for homeowners who have a home security system, which can help increase the overall safety of the home. Research performed by alarm.org stated that 90 percent of convicted burglars said they would keep away from homes with home security systems. The assumed decrease in incidents could help insurance companies perceive homeowners as less of a risk, and therefore qualify them for discounts.
2. Lower Costs on Home Policy Premiums
Homeowners could see their insurance premiums decline by up to about 20 percent with the installation of a well-rounded home security system, according to researchers. Not only can having a comprehensive security system help reduce insurance costs
, homeowners can also save money on would-be damages in the event that a burglary would occur without a security system.3. Minimize Risk of Cost Hikes
To steer clear higher insurance premiums, homeowners should carefully review their policies. Home insurance companies may opt to hike insurance policy premiums should a burglary occurs, so it’s a good idea to know what factors could bring about unwanted changes to the cost of your home insurance.
Outdoor Burning in Georgia.
The Environmental Protection Division of the Georgia Department of Natural Resourcesrestricts open burning from May through September of each year.
Why?
During the warm weather seasons, the particulates in an open-air fire become more significant contributors to unhealthy levels of ozone. By banning open fires during those months in heavily populated Atlanta and the majority of its surrounding counties, there is a reduction in the
amount of pollutants.Once the weather has turned cooler, certain types of outdoor burning
is once again permitted in north Georgia counties. Georgia residents that want to do an open burn from October through April 2018, need to check with their county ordinances on outdoor burning.The following types of burning can be done without a permit:
- Leaves, limbs, and natural vegetation
- Fires that provide warmth
- Fires that cook food
- Recreational fires in an outdoor fireplace
Always check with your county before you do any sort of large surface, outdoor burning! If you need a permit, visit http://www.gfc.state.ga.us/online-permits/index.cfm.
General safety tips for any type of open burning:
- Gather the necessary supplies for controlling the fire—a rake, a shovel and a water hose connected to a good water source.
- Find a burn spot that can be easily controlled in a level area, away from any buildings.
- Start small.
- Make sure all the materials being burned are natural. No man-made products (such as processed lumber) that might contain chemicals that
ignites or gives off noxious fumes. - No burning within 20 feet of flammable or combustible materials.
- Never leave an outdoor fire burning unattended.
An outdoor fire burning out of control can threaten the safety of your home and family. And in Georgia, illegal outdoor burning can get you in a world of trouble. Don’t play with fire—play it safe!

How a Social Media Status Update Can Cost You Thousands of Dollars
There’s almost nothing better than being on summer vacation.
When you’re having fun, it’s so tempting to share all the excitement on social media. However, you may want to read this before you update your Facebook status, check in on Foursquare or snap and post that beachfront selfie. Burglars that are intent on stealing your valuables will utilize your social media posts to determine if you’re at home.
78% of Burglars Use Social Media to Target Homes
Statistics show, 78% of home burglars use social media platforms to select the homes they intend to rob. Location-based platforms such as Facebook or Twitter make their information especially valuable to criminals, who are always looking for the easiest access possible to your home. And what could be easier than an unoccupied home? If the average home robbery takes 10 minutes, imagine the kind of access you’re offering a burglar when you announce you’re taking off on a 14-day cruise!
In addition to the risk of being robbed, some insurers in the United States are now denying claims for home break-ins when they discover that the policyholder posted on Facebook, Twitter or other social media platforms while he or she was away on a trip.
How Can I Avoid being targeted by a Facebook-surfing Thief?
Hold off on posting while you’re away, and save all those great pics for an online photo album AFTER you return from your trip. Don’t use the check-in feature on any of your social media. If you’re traveling with family, set guidelines for posting to social media that apply to everyone.
Above all, make sure to ARM YOUR ALARM on your security system before you set off on your road trip.
EMC Security wants you to have a fun-and SAFE—vacation!
We’re home when you’re not, providing 24/7 monitoring for intrusion, fire, and smoke. If you want the alarm monitoring company with one of the fastest response times in Georgia to protect your home, give us a call at 770-963-0305 today or visit our website.
Riverside Military School Case Study
Advanced, cost effective video surveillance solution.
Chosen for providing the most advanced, cost effective solution, EMC Security designed and installed a video surveillance solution for Riverside Military Academy with artificial intelligence video analytics search capabilities that can save valuable time and effort, ultimately making the campus a safer place for cadets and staff.
Riverside Military Academy (RMA), located in Gainesville, GA, is a leading private, military college preparatory and boarding school for boys in grades 7-12. Founded in 1907, the beautiful campus sprawls over 200 acres and is home to over 500 cadets from 30 nations and 30 states. Every aspect of life as a cadet at RMA is designed to encourage exceptional academic achievement and personal growth. With increased safety risks to the cadets that not only go to school but live on campus, quality video surveillance is a vital part of the overall security posture.
Awarded the project with the most advanced, cost effective solution, EMC Security provided a complete video surveillance solution with self-learning video analytics, network video recorders, and video management software with appearance search technology. Installed across 8 buildings including fields and dormitories, the school has future plans to integrate access control systems to secure physical access points, providing an integrated security solution campus-wide.
The Challenge:
RMA had a legacy analog surveillance system in place, but it had no intelligent or proactive capabilities. As such, trying to locate incident footage was a time-consuming process that involved scrutinizing hours of video footage.
The older system also had gaps in coverage and offered little reliability.
The Process:
EMC Security was one of six integrators considered during the open, Public RFP, selected as the providing the best equipment, best sound design, and best value. Once EMC Security introduced AI capabilities, RMA realized they’d save money and time with our solution.
- References and reputation. As a trusted security provider for many schools in Georgia, including Gwinnett, Forsyth and Hall County schools, EMC Security’s reputation was solid.
- More coverage with less cameras. EMC Security engineers designed an efficient and cost- effective solution that provided more field of vision and higher resolution with less cameras than other companies.
- Artificial Intelligence capabilities. Sorts through hours of video in minutes to identify specific people or vehicles.
- Non-proprietary equipment. No annual license fees.
- Future-proof. The solution allows for expansion of the AI capabilities and integration with access control.
The EMC Security Solution:
EMC Security was able to replace the system’s 62 analog cameras with 168 non-proprietary Avigilon AI cameras and integrate across one network with video management software. The Avigilon cameras offered much higher image quality, better coverage and video analytics than the legacy system.
With video from the large network of security cameras, the system leverages advanced artificial intelligence and video analytic capabilities to sort through hours of video with ease, to quickly locate a specific person or vehicle of interest across school grounds, in near real-time. The advanced video pattern detection technology can accurately recognize the movements of people and vehicles while ignoring motion not relevant to a scene. Embedded into cameras, the system’s ability to constantly learn what typical activity in a scene looks like, the camera can then detect and flag unusual motion, revealing events that may have otherwise been missed.
The installation also included a video wall where two 50-inch screens provided security personnel with an interactive visual matrix. Utilizing intuitive software, a School Security Officer can operate and manage the system, access the video real-time, and view the new campus wide analytic cameras locally or remotely. This native and browser-based software has evolving advanced upgrades without the on-going licensing fees. The software can be pushed to all servers in the site and upgraded automatically.
The Future:
By integrating an access control system, RMA will have a fully integrated security solution with real-time event management. When the access control system is activated, a camera will record video footage of the event. If someone is falsely entering, you can easily view who it is real-time. By quickly and easily identifying an incident, a campus-wide lock down can be accomplished as needed.
Conclusion:
- EMC Security proposed a solution for 20% less cost than the competition.
- The competition presented 30% more cameras for the similar coverage resulting in higher installation and equipment costs – without analytics or expansion for access control.
- EMC Security completed the project in two months, over a month ahead of schedule.
- RMA has experienced an enormous amount of time savings. In reviewing a recent incident, it took 1/8 of the time to find the video footage with the new system vs old system. As a result, RMA now employs a more effective incident prevention and risk mitigation strategy.
“I have been impressed with EMC Security’s quickness and professional assistance throughout the process.” Bill O’Brien; Safety and Security Director

Spring Cleaning Tips With Safety In Mind
It’s that time of year again.
Most of us are “social distancing” at home and have some time on our hands. So we don’t really have many excuses not to spring clean, do we?
The fact is, taking the time to thoroughly clean and inspect your home – especially with these 6 pointers – you’ll have a shiny, fresh, and SAFE place to enjoy during Georgia’s beautiful spring and summer seasons.
1. Be aware of your security system when you’re redecorating.
Does your spring to-do list include a new big-screen TV or furniture purchase? Re-arranging or changing furniture and appliances may cause a change in the efficiency of your security system. Make sure that when you re-decorate, your security cameras are not blocked and your motion detector sensors are clear.
2. Check your window locks.
Spring is a good time to clean the interior and exterior glass—it’s safer when you can see more clearly! It’s also the perfect time to open and close every window and make sure the locks and seals are properly securing the window. If any of the locks seem loose, tighten or replace them. It’s also a good time to install inexpensive window pins. They’re available at any home improvement store, and are easy to operate—just pull the pin out to unlock and open the window.
The next 4 tips are to prevent a fire in the home. EMC Security will monitor for fire for no additional monthly cost. You will have to install smoke detectors specific for monitoring but it’s well worth the small investment.
3. Check batteries on smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors.
If you read this tip a lot when you’re scanning articles about home security and maintenance, it’s for a good reason. These detectors could mean the difference between life and death. According to the Consumer Products Safety Division, two-thirds of all home fires occurred in residences without working smoke detectors. It’s also a good time to test your smoke alarms.
4. Clean your light fixtures.
Not only will your home look brighter, but you’ll also see better—and that’s a big safety plus! Dust those hard-to-reach chandeliers and ceiling fans thoroughly. An accumulation of dust and dirt can cause operating issues, which could lead to big trouble if there’s a short-circuit in the wiring. One spark could start a fire!
5. Clean out your fireplace.
If you’ve got a wood-burning fireplace in your home, it’s time to call in a chimney expert to make sure the flue is clear and there’s no creosote buildup. Discard any ash, clean the grate and surrounding areas, and close the flue. A clean fireplace will freshen the air in your home.
6. Clean around your refrigerator and washer-dryer.
Spring is a great time to pull your fridge out from the wall and give the floor behind it and around it a good cleaning. Sweep, wipe and mop as much as you can. Take a brush/duster specifically designed to clean the coils in major appliances and give it a good deep-cleaning. The amount of dust that gets into the bottom of a refrigerator is astounding. And when you’re doing the same to your washer-dryer combo, use that brush to clean out the dryer vent. Make sure you’re in the habit of cleaning your lint screen after every time you run your dryer. Remember, anywhere you’ve got dust and major electrical equipment, you’ve got the potential for a fire.
Dog vs Security System
One of the reasons why people think they don’t need or want a security system is because they have a dog.
It’s hard to defend against a beloved dog, especially one that looks like the one in the photo above. But there are many benefits to a security system that you just don’t get with a dog.
Dogs have amazing senses, with their sharp ears and superior scents-ability. Much like a security system, a dog can alert you right away to an intruder on your property. The downside of this is, to your dog, many everyday visitors count as intruders.
A smart home security system does it better. Like a dog, it’s proactive when an intruder is detected—but it’s far better at discerning a genuine intruder from a harmless everyday event, thanks to its use of intelligence from all around the home. Equally important, if there’s a break-in, a security system can alert a 24-7 monitoring station for professional help.
Burglars avoid homes with security systems. In fact, 60% will go elsewhere if they see one. Add a smart security camera and you have a formidable deterrent.
Of course, most burglars don’t want to meet your dog, either. Should they spot dog toys in the yard or hear muffled barking, many will move along.
Deterrence aside, though, there are some things a dog can’t help with. For example, 1/3 of all burglaries are cases of unlawful entry—a burglar entering through an unlocked door or window. With proactive reminders and remote locking, security system powered with home automation can save the day when you’re in a rush and forget to secure the house.
It’s not unknown for a burglar to arrive with food to distract a dog, for example. While a specially trained dog may hold his ground, most dogs will scamper off down the basement stairs after their prize.
Meanwhile, a lawbreaker will need more than a steak to defeat a smart home security system. Even if they take a hammer to your security panel, your security technology can still alert your home’s 24-7 monitoring station.

Lawn Care Safety
Get an Instant Quote
In the warm weather months, many Saturday mornings in Atlanta are heralded with the drone of the lawnmower. How many of these lawnmower owners have taken the time to make sure their machine has been stored safely? And how many know the fire hazards surrounding lawnmower storage and repair?
Be informed! Here’s what you need to know about storage, handling the gasoline, and operating your lawnmower safely this spring.
Before the first mow:
- If you don’t do maintenance yourself, take your lawnmower to a shop for tune-ups and repairs.
- Make sure the blades are sharp and not damaged.
- Make sure the blade guards are in place
- Make sure your lawn is dry before mowing. Damp grass can damage the mower.
- Check the gas and oil. If there is gasoline left over from last summer and you didn’t use a fuel stabilizer, it will need to be changed.
- Make sure the emergency shut off valve is working and not damaged.
- Check the wheels and make sure they roll easily and aren’t loose enough to come off while you’re mowing.
- Replace the fuel line at least every other year to prevent the hazard caused by rotten fuel lines leaking or sending rubber bits into the carburetor.
While you mow:
- If the blade or grasses chute needs to be cleaned, stop the mower engine. Never
adjust, clear obstructions, or place any part of your body under a running lawn mower. - Disconnect the spark plug before reaching under the mower or before turning it up to look under it.
- Don’t use the trick of taping the
shut off handle down so you can run the mower without holding it. You’ll lose control of your mower. - Cut across hills and slopes, not up and down.
- If you need to add gas in the middle of a mow, stop the lawnmower and let it cool for at least 20 minutes—longer is preferable. A hot engine can ignite the gas fumes or any gasoline that spills.
- Empty the grass catcher device often so the mower won’t tip over—with you!
- Watch your oil level. If the level of your gas tank drops while the engine is at rest or you see the level of your engine oil has risen, or if you smell gas on your dipstick, do not use the machine until it can be repaired.
- If your engine spews liquid out of the muffler at
startup, or begins to falter or smoke when running, your carburetor may have failed and needs to be inspected or repaired. If the gas has mixed with the oil, you may think it is just oil leaking, but it can be the oil and gas has mixed. Do not use until you’ve’ identified and corrected the problem.
Cleanup:
- Allow the mower to cool for at least 20 minutes. Take this time to rake or clean up the yard.
- After disconnecting the spark plug wire, clean off any buildup of dirt or grass from the mower. It only gets harder to do that later.
- Once the mower is cooled, fill the oil and gas levels to the recommended marks.
- Make sure you close the lid tightly on the gas can before you put it away.
Safe Storage between uses, and in the off-season:
- Don’t store gas or other flammables in a storage shed that’s connected to your house.
- Remove old fuel from the gas tank.
- Drain the carburetor fuel bowl.
- Disconnect the battery.
- Change the oil.
- Read the owner’s manual for your brand’s exact recommendations.
- Add fuel stabilizer to your gas can at each fill up at the gas station. It prevents water from forming in the gasoline.
- Smell for fresh gasoline. If you smell fresh gas on your machine or storage area, roll the machine outside. Empty the gas, or call a pro for service.
- If you suspect any problems with your lawnmower, or you smell gas after using it, do not store it indoors. Call an expert for help.
- Call EMC Security to make sure your home is protected with fire detection devices.
The EMC Security Difference
The number 1 question people ask is: What makes EMC Security different than other companies?
1. No Contracts!
It should be no surprise that the biggest difference is that we don’t require a monthly service contract. You can cancel anytime for any reason.
You can’t purchase another professionally installed security system without agreeing to at least a 36-month contract. This practice has been the standard for years so the providers can offer low up-front installation and equipment fees. The problem with this is once the equipment costs would be paid off, the high monthly fee (absorbing the equipment costs) does not reduce.
Since our inception in 1998, EMC Security has offered no-contract monitoring service. You pay for your equipment upfront with monitoring and communication charges paid on a month to month basis, with the option to cancel any time. If you need to finance the equipment, we have an interest-free option for that as well.
2. Security Technology
EMC Security sells a variety of security equipment . All the equipment is non-proprietary which means that other companies can reprogram it for their monitoring system. Some well-known, national companies do not sell this type of technology, preferring instead to use their own proprietary equipment, blocking other companies from monitoring the systems. This trend is unfortunately one that locks customers in as well, because the system is worthless if you are not happy with the monitoring service.
3. Takeovers
We can also takeover and monitor pre-existing systems. So, if you have a system in your home, we should be able to reprogramme it, provide any updates or upgrades needed, and start monitoring. This service can save a customer alot of money.
4. Alarm Monitoring
EMC Security’s monitoring cost of $16.95 per month and has not changed since 1999. We believe everyone should be able to afford to be safe at home, so we keep costs low. Most notably though is our Secure Path Technology. No matter what extra features a home security system offers, the bottom line is whether someone is monitoring your home 24/7 and can get help to you fast when you need it most.
EMC Security pioneered a monitoring architecture that sends a signal simultaneously to two, separately staffed, UL listed, CSAA Five-Diamond Certified command centers, which means a highly trained operator will always be available to answer the call. With an average response time of 14 seconds, homeowners have the added peace of mind that comes with rapid response.
Most security providers utilize a single command center that requires rerouting in the event the first center is busy or otherwise disabled, wasting time and creating unnecessary risk.
Additionally, security technology is built with an “alarm signal delay” of at least 45 seconds. EMC Security overrides this delay so the signal is transferred to our monitoring centers immediately. A lot can happen in 45 seconds and we don’t want to take that chance when lives are at stake.
5. Customer Service
Finally, what separates EMC Security from the rest is our ownership and values. Because we are owned by three of the largest non-profit power companies in Georgia, we are able to keep costs down and focus on service.
Like our parent companies, we put customer satisfaction above everything else because we know that happy customers are key to maintaining a successful business. By endorsing highly ethical business practices, both within our organization and across our customer and potential customer base, we send our message as a standard, not as a fallback.
This is very important when the lives of our customers are at stake.
