The VISTA H3 kit — panel, keypad, sensors,
siren, camera, fob
The hybrid, and the panel nearly every job here ends up on. It takes wired and wireless devices, so a building with cable already in the walls does not need rewiring — and an older system's hardwired contacts usually carry straight across.

System overview (PDF)
Everything in a single 7-inch touchscreen — the siren, the camera and the radio are all in it. Wireless only, encrypted, up to a mile of range. For a new build or a house with nothing in the walls, where there is no wiring to keep.

Camera brochure (PDF)Before you price any of this: if there is already a DSC, Honeywell VISTA, Qolsys or 2GIG panel in the building, tell us. Keeping it and changing who monitors it is often the cheaper answer, and we will say so. This page is for a system that is not there yet — a new build, a house with nothing on the wall, or a panel too old to be worth keeping.
Most alarm panels made in the last twenty-five years can be kept. A Resideo communicator goes on the one you already own, the phone line goes away, and on a VISTA or First Alert panel you get the Total Connect app on hardware that was never built for it — arm and disarm from your phone, zone status, notifications.
From $399 installed, then $16.99 a month — $12.99 for the first year. The one question that decides it is whether your panel can talk on a data bus as well as dial, and that is a five-minute check.
Tell us what is on the wall →Every line has a − and a + on it, so these are starting points rather than fixed kits — take the motion out, add two more doors, open Add something else for the rest of the range. The equipment total and the monthly follow whatever is left in the card, and nothing here is binding: we confirm it in writing before anything is ordered.
Every one of them is priced on Smart Home monitoring. The three packages and their prices are right below this — Security, Smart Security and Smart Home — and picking a different one reprices every card.
Every package above is priced on Smart Home, which is the only one with lights, locks and thermostats in it and the one nearly everybody ends up on. Pick another here and the packages reprice. 24/7 ULC monitoring with police, fire and medical dispatch is in all three — what changes is the app and the automation.
Monitoring and dispatch. No app.
Not on this package: no Total Connect app, so no arming from your phone, no alerts, no cameras and no lights or locks.
Everything above, plus the app and cameras.
Not on this package: no automation. Z-Wave lights, plugs, switches and thermostats need Smart Home — they will not pair on this one. Covers one MotionViewer; more than that is Smart Home.
Everything above, plus the house.
One price per package, whichever panel is on the wall, and every card above prints both the first-year price and the price after it. No contract on any of them — month to month, thirty days’ notice. Cell backup, camera recording and 2-Way Voice are separate lines on top of whichever package you pick: the cards show the first two as you add them, and voice is $3 a month whenever you want it.
There is already a panel and a keypad on the wall and they are old. This swaps those two for a VISTA H3 and leaves the rest of the building alone.
Two ways in and the main floor covered — where most break-ins start.
Every door you actually use, the rooms between them, and a camera on the one door everybody comes to.
Monitored smoke and CO, which is a different thing from the alarms on your ceiling now: these call the station whether or not anyone is home.
Equipment prices are installed and approximate; your written quote is confirmed before anything is ordered. These are priced on Smart Home monitoring: $14.99 a month for the first year, then $19.99 plus HST. The two packages below it start at $10.99 and $12.99 — the ladder is below. No contract, month to month with thirty days’ notice.
Of course. Leave your name and a number, and a person rings you back and works it out with you. No forms to finish, no quote to read first.
Yes — just call mePlain-language brochures for homeowners and business owners, plus full technical datasheets for those who want the details.
Every First Alert system we install connects to the Total Connect 2.0 app. Arm and disarm from anywhere, watch live camera video, get instant alerts, and control locks, lights, and thermostats — all from one app on your phone. Available on the App Store and Google Play.
Everything below is us rather than the manufacturer, so it does not change with the panel: 24/7 ULC monitoring by Lanvac, police, fire and medical dispatch included in the rate, our own Ottawa technicians, no contract — month to month with thirty days’ notice — and pre-authorized monthly payment from a void cheque.
