False Alarm Prevention: The majority of false alarms are caused by user error. Alarm users can help reduce false alarms by:

• Make sure that everyone that uses an alarm system is familiar with how the system works.
• Check windows and doors before activating the alarm system.
• Be aware of changes in the environment: (animals, design changes, seasonal decorations, plants, balloons, windows, signs, curtains, and human error).
• Notify monitoring facility of any changes in personal or work being done in or around the area being protected by the alarm system.
• Equipment should be routinely inspected, batteries changed and the system maintained by a qualified technician.
• Make sure that you know how your "panic button" works.

For more information contact the Gilbert Police Department Alarm Coordinator at (480) 635-7459 or policealarms@gilbertaz.gov. Information about alarm companies go to Arizona Alarm Association.
