Secure Pacific, a verified security system company, offers security solutions to keep both home and business owners safe from the elements in light of Arson Awareness Week, May 5-11.

Every year, arson results in nearly 17,000 fires, $ 593 million in property damage, and 280 deaths. To combat this growing trend, the latest advances in business alarms and home security systems are specifically designed to protect families and businesses from environmental threats and damages with vigilant monitoring 24/7.

Home environmental monitoring systems protect families from major losses caused by environmental factors, from flooding due to bad plumbing to fire damage from an unattended stovetop. Water and fire detection is ideal for family residences, vacation homes and rental homes.

Annually, Secure Pacific estimates that water damage costs homeowners more than $ 3 billion in preventable losses, not including the memories lost from spoiled family heirlooms, photo albums and electronic data. The residential security company offers home monitoring systems to detect moisture by placing sensors near water-using appliances, such as washing machines and dishwashers. When water comes in contact with the sensor, a wireless alert is sent to Secure Pacifics Verification Center
