What You Get with
Our Monitoring Service Protects Your Home
We check your alarm system to confirm it can connect to our monitoring center, test signal quality, and go over which alarms will be watched and how we respond to each one.
We set up your account with your home address, emergency contacts, zone details, and any special instructions. Your system is then programmed with our center’s numbers and backup communication paths.
We trigger each alarm type while our operators confirm they’re receiving clear signals with the right zone info. We also walk you through exactly how operators will respond during a real emergency.
Your home is watched around the clock. When an alarm goes off, our operators follow your set instructions to check the situation and call for help if needed. You can reach us anytime to update contacts or change your preferences.

Had issues with 8 new PoE security cameras on my new home (under construction). Not only did Protech (Todd) respond the same day, he adjusted his schedule for my out of town travel… and he showed up early to our appointment and was able to diagnose and fix all eight cameras. Plus, he’s a nice guy. Thanks Todd/Protech… Hope I don’t need you, but happy to call if I do.Posted on Google![]()

Protech has provided outstanding security solutions for both my business and home. Their team designed and installed a state of the art security system with cameras that are reliable and easy to use. The technicians were punctual and took the time to explain the equipment and apps to me. The ongoing service and support have been equally impressive, with quick response times and a commitment to keeping my property secure. Based on this experience Protech is highly recommended for anyone who needs a security system .Posted on Google![]()

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens when my alarm triggers? How does the monitoring process work?
Can you monitor an alarm system that another company installed, or do I need new equipment?
We can monitor most systems regardless of who installed them. Most alarm panels made in the last 15 years work with our monitoring center without any major changes. In most cases we just reprogram your existing panel with our settings. If your system is older, we may need to add a cellular communication module, or in rare cases replace the panel.
What happens if my internet or power goes out? Will my monitoring still work?
Yes. If your internet goes down, monitoring continues through cellular backup, which kicks in within seconds. Your panel also has a built-in battery that keeps the system running during a power outage. If both go out at the same time, the cellular and battery backup work together so your home stays covered.
Do I have to sign a long-term contract for alarm monitoring, or can I cancel anytime?
If you own compatible equipment, we offer month-to-month monitoring with no long-term contract. If we install new equipment or add communication modules, we typically require a 1 to 3 year agreement to cover those costs. Your monthly rate stays fixed for the length of the contract. If you move, we can transfer service to your new Tucson-area home at no extra charge.
What should I do if my alarm goes off by accident?
If you trigger your alarm by mistake, call our monitoring center right away using the number on your account. Give the operator your password and they will cancel the dispatch before emergency services are sent. If you do not call in time and police are already on the way, let the operator know so they can contact dispatch. Some cities charge a fee for false alarm responses, so calling us quickly helps avoid that.
