Back-To-School Bliss With ADT

With Labor Day behind us, the end of summer can always be a little sad, but getting the kids back to school can have its benefits! Whether you’re celebrating getting back in control or looking ahead to the hustle and bustle of the school year, ADT wants to wish you, and your family a great back-to-school experience.

The sense of back-to-school freedom can fade fast, but ADT Pulse can keep it going with features that help families streamline this busy time of year. All with the touch of an app, you can receive email and text alerts when the kids arrive home after school, check in during the day with real-time video monitoring, arm and disarm your security system and control lights, small appliances and thermostats - you can even lock and unlock doors.

In addition to advanced security features, ADT Pulse’s remote access capabilities allow families to view real time video of their premises; manage their energy consumption by controlling thermostats, small appliances and lights; and receive notifications and alerts via phone, email or text. ADT Pulse can serve as an invaluable tool for busy families at any time of the school day:

Morning Stress Solution:

A recent study by ADT found that nearly one-third of respondents fear they may have forgotten to turn off the stove or coffee pot when leaving the house. If parents have their hands full with kids’ backpacks and lunch bags while rushing out the door, ADT Pulse users can quickly switch off small appliances and secure their home with the push of a button.

Mid-Day Monitoring Tool:

Over half of respondents from the survey wish they could use their mobile device to check in on their home. ADT Pulse offers new video motion technology that can be programmed to send users email or text alerts when movement is detected, providing reassurance to parents who want to know their children arrived home safely from school or afternoon activities.

Afternoon and Evening Assistant:

After children arrive home and disarm the Pulse system, parents can remotely arm their home again to ensure kids are safe and secure within. Moreover, Pulse can automatically lock doors, switch off lights and control temperature, offering families convenience and comfort at the end of a long day.
