Here’s what you can get with your Vivint security system
Unlike other home security companies, Vivint’s security and automation offerings are available to renters. Look at a few of the most popular sensors and services:
Burglary detection
Burglar alarms and glass break sensors can notify you when an surprise intruder breaks into your place. Get an alert to your phone if an device goes off, or arm and disarm your components remotely so you can let in maintenance or guests when you’re not home.
Environmental safety detectors
Ordinary smoke detectors should come with your rental, but probably not other CO or water detectors. Place a wireless carbon monoxide alarm or flood alarm to warn you and the monitoring agents to catastrophes before it’s too late.
Indoor or doorbell cameras
HD security cameras can be wirelessly installed so you can keep watch on indoor rooms. A doorbell camera lets you watch -- and speak to -- visitors at the door. Get live HD feeds and texts about possible lurkers through the Vivint App.
Round-the-clock monitoring
One of the benefits of choosing Vivint is the monitoring experts that respond to your alarms. When a sensor goes off, your monitoring team quickly calls you to make sure you’re safe. Then they’ll quickly contact the proper emergency personnel.
Smart home components
Smart items, such as smart lights, can be added to make your apartment more efficient. Some components like a replacement smart thermostat or smart locks may involve prior landlord approval.
The Vivint App
Your Columbia security system can be controlled anywhere with the Vivint App. View HD security feeds, remotely activate devices, or program rules for all your smart devices. Then allow texts to your smartphone if a device trips or a security camera picks up suspicious motion.
