OK, here's a statistic that will make you stop and think the next time you head out the door to work or to run errands. According to the National Fire Protection Association, a home fire starts every 86 seconds, and the chance of a person experiencing a home fire in his or her lifetime is one in four.
While we all love to travel with our pets as much as possible, we know that they still spend a great deal of time at home alone. Whether you're at work or at the grocery store, a fire can break out in minutes. How long would it take the fire department to know there's a problem?
There's a great way for you to help safeguard your dog while you're gone: Kidde’s RemoteLync™ Monitor and Camera, now available nationwide at The Home Depot and online retailers. The monitor detects carbon monoxide while the camera watches for movement in your home.
One lucky reader will win BOTH the RemoteLync Monitor and the RemoteLync Camera (Monitor ARV: $99.00. Camera ARV: $189.00.)
RemoteLync Monitor
The RemoteLync Monitor monitors for smoke and carbon monoxide then notifies you if it detects a potential problem. The monitor plugs in your standard outlet, and a single monitor will cover your entire home of up to about 2,000 square feet.
If the monitor detects carbon monoxide, it alerts you and other designated contacts through a free app on iOS and Android devices, email and text message. Once you get the alert, you have the option to ignore the alert, call 911, or call one of your contacts. And there's no monthly fee!
RemoteLync Camera
You can take that peace of mind an additional step by protecting your home with the RemoteLync™ Camera from Kidde. The camera is cord-free, hub-free and powered by a rechargeable battery that lasts up to three months on one charge. You can position it easily thanks to its magnetic base.
When the camera is armed, it immediately records video when it senses motion and sends an alert via a free app to your mobile device and email. Worried about your pets setting it off repeatedly? There's a built-in “pet-mode” to minimize the chance of a pet’s movement triggering the device; you can customize this mode based on your pet’s size.
