Simple Fix for Roomba

Don’t you love it when you find a simple fix to something you thought was going to require a complicated solution? We do.

When we provide security solutions to businesses or homes, many are very straight forward. But, we also receive our share of curveballs when it comes to requests or obstacles.

For example, if you have a Roomba (robot vacuum cleaner), you probably love the convenience. What you may not have considered when you purchased it is whether it would set off your motion sensor. That’s something we think about at H&S Protection.

We make sure your Roomba works effectively AND our alarm system works in tandem with it, so alarms don’t go off  from the little guy’s motion. That requires some well-learned experience from our sales and installation team to make sure you are covered, and that you still get clean carpets.

Similar to the adjustments made for pets, the vision field for your motion sensor can be raised so that a potential intruder will still be detected, but at the lower height, Roomba gets to do its job unnoticed.

Yes, simple. That’s the experience we bring to help put in place effective and intelligent solutions that work for each specific location. Our team knows each customer has unique circumstances and we take the time to discuss them with you and craft the best installation.

Give us a call in Stevens Point at 715.344.0727, or in Pewaukee at 262.574.7777, and we’ll be glad to keep your Roomba puttering effectively along the carpet while your motion sensor continues to do its job.

Newspaper Tossed Over the Fence

What would you do if someone kept tossing newspapers over your fence into your yard in the middle of the night? What if it was dead mice his cat killed that he kept launching into your yard? Would you confront him? Would you get angry? Would you ignore the incidents and jam the debris in the recycling or garbage containers, humming a tune to yourself to contain your irritation?

Hard to say. We probably all respond differently to situations like that.

One way to deal with another individual dumping into your space is to have security cameras installed. Voila! You have images to look at. You can determine exactly who the perpetrator was.

That doesn’t completely solve your problem, because then you must decide what to do next. But, at least you have proof. You can point to the video. “Here, is this you or not?,” you can say to the individual denying culpability.

Capturing the incidents on video leads to resolution. That’s what we provide at H&S Protection. We put the tools in your hands to solve problems (or irritants) like this.

We hope no one is throwing dead raccoons or skunks into your backyard. But we’ve certainly heard of random garbage tossers who repeatedly target the same location. If you want to catch them on video, we can help. Give as a call in Stevens Point at 715.344.0727, or in Waukesha at 262.6-574.7777.
