Cost of Equipment and Service
We will supply and fit the community alarm free of charge.
For most new installations a telephone line is not needed but there may be exceptions due to network coverage in specific areas. In these instances, a landline may still be required. A standard electrical socket close to the main telephone socket is also needed to enable us to install the alarm system.
There is a yearly service charge of £171.08, plus VAT where applicable. This is weekly charge of £3.29 per week, plus VAT where applicable.
