Customer Responsibility
USER RESPONSIBLE FOR CHECKING SYSTEM
A security system is an electronic device. They can malfunction or fail without notifying our central station. Additionally, a phone line can stop working and make communication with our central station impossible. Please check your alarm system periodically to avoid the possibility of failure. Every contact point can be checked by placing your system in the chime mode than opening each window. Your keypad will chime indicating it successfully acknowledged the contact opening. After checking each device on the system, notify our central station that you are going to set off your alarm. Do this by arming your system than opening an exterior door. Once the siren sounds turn the alarm off, then wait for our central station to call you back to confirm the communication was successful. You can also call our central station directly to help you perform these tests.
Disconnecting Phone Lines
We understand that in today's world many people are disconnecting their home phone lines because people now use cell phones for most calls.

We value the loyalty of our customers and so we have a couple of programs in place to help update their systems.
The following upgrade options are available to all customers that have been with Guardian Alarm for 2 years or longer.
