Today’s wireless home security systems prove to be highly reliable and have fail rates of less than one percent in many cases. Studies have shown that homes that are protected by these systems are less likely to be burglarized than homes that are left unprotected by home security systems. In fact, unprotected homes stand a 66 percent higher chance of being invaded by burglars and thieves than homes that have these systems installed and activated. Only one in 250 homes with these systems fall victim to burglary and theft.
