SAFETY
So perhaps you’ve recently moved house and it turns out the neighbourhood was a bit rougher than you realised, maybe you have children or pets, or maybe you just want to have the feeling of security.
Safety is underrated when it comes to homes. This is your home and you deserve to feel safe. But what is safe, what can you do to make your home a safe place for you and your family?
Induction Cooktops
So you may not realise but an induction cooktop is different from an electric cooktop. How you might be asking yourself?
Well, they're safer because the cooktop itself does not get hot and most switch off automatically when not covered by a pot or pan. Which also helps save energy since it’s not running when you don’t need it.
Fire Alarms
Do I actually need fire alarms in my house?
Yes, you are legally required to have fire alarms in the house. Especially if you are renting your house out.
Why wouldn’t you want fire alarms anyway? They could literally save your life.
Surge Protectors
Surge protectors help extend the lifespan of your electronics. Power strikes and surges put your electronics at risk. In today’s society, electronics play a huge part. So just like anything else you care about, why not look after your electronics?
Cameras
Other than watching yourself get home drunk or the dog doing funny stuff in the backyard, security cameras are a great investment. They don’t make you money but they do give you peace of mind and in some cases, that’s worth more.
Security Lighting
Security lighting goes hand in hand with Security Cameras. Though most security cameras now come with inbuilt spotlights and night vision, floodlights or spotlights play their part. They can deter any buglers and they will also make it easier for you to get from your car to your door at night.
Testing & Tagging
The primary reason behind doing testing and tagging is to ensure the safety of the people using electronics whilst also reducing the risk of an electrical hazard.
You use your electronics every day, so why not look after them?
Wiring & Fuse Box Check
If your house was built before 1990 there is a chance the wiring is a bit average. I’m not saying the work electricians did was bad, because I’m not, I have seen some excellent wiring in older houses. But with new technology and training, today’s wiring and organisation are way better than back in the day.
Locks & Access
Your front door is the primary entrance to the house. Perhaps your night time routine is to lock the door before you go to bed. Or perhaps you have broken in and lost your precious items?
Proper locks can ensure you and your family are safe, so don’t get the cheap $20 lock, make the smart choice, with a smart lock.
