Service Area
Serving Kemptville from 36 Capital Drive, Nepean · 24/7 monitoring · 613-233-1115
Kemptville is the fastest-growing town south of Ottawa — new subdivisions like eQuinelle on one side, working farms and country properties on the other, and a lot of households commuting up the 416 every day. Both kinds of property have the same problem: nobody's home for ten hours at a stretch. That's what monitoring is for.
Base systems monitor through your home internet, so a dropped connection means dropped monitoring. On larger North Grenville properties we recommend adding optional cellular backup — the alarm then reports over the cell network when internet or power fails, and the monitoring station sees the failure itself. It's an add-on with a one-time equipment and activation charge plus an additional monthly fee, quoted upfront. Outbuildings, barns and shops can ride on the same system.
New Kemptville builds are typically pre-wired; a ProSeries touchscreen, monitored smoke/CO and a video doorbell go in within half a day. Existing systems from previous owners are usually free takeovers.

Three ways to do this
That one answer decides everything else — and in a lot of Kemptville houses the panel that is already there can stay — on an app, or just monitored.
Our First Alert line, the one we are a Premier Pro Partner for. Usually the VISTA H3, or a ProSeries touchscreen, fitted and monitored — everything quoted in writing first.
A DSC, Honeywell VISTA, Qolsys or 2GIG panel usually stays exactly where it is — we add a communicator, keep your keypads and sensors, and it goes on an app.
A working panel and a real phone line is all this needs. We change who it dials and nothing else — no app, no new hardware, nothing to buy. $9.99 a month the first year.
In Kemptville, specifically
North Grenville is policed by the Ontario Provincial Police, so the City of Ottawa's false-alarm by-law does not apply. Any fee for a false dispatch is set locally, not by us — check with the municipality for the current amount.
Wireless sensors cover the house and most nearby buildings. For a barn or a long lane, a battery camera with a solar panel often does more than another sensor would. We test range on site before quoting.
The Alarm.com radio we fit roams across partner networks rather than being tied to one carrier, which helps in the gaps between towns. If the reading is still weak, an external antenna usually sorts it.

Questions
Yes — Kemptville and North Grenville are part of our service area for installation and service calls, and monitoring itself is 24/7/365 regardless of where you are.
Yes — outbuildings can be added to the same system with wireless sensors, and driveway or yard cameras tie into the same app.
The base system monitors through your internet — if rural internet drops, so does the connection. Adding optional cellular backup fixes that: the system reports over the cell network the moment internet or power fails. It's an add-on (one-time equipment and activation charge plus an additional monthly fee), and we quote it upfront when we discuss your options.
Yes. It is the southern edge of where we work. The monthly price is the same as in the city.
The alarm will — it reports over cellular. Cameras need internet, so on a property without it we plan the system around sensors.
No, that is a City of Ottawa by-law. North Grenville is OPP territory and any fee is set locally — ask the municipality for the current amount.
