Estate homes, village shops, and everything on the property — protected.

Serving Manotick from 36 Capital Drive, Nepean · 24/7 monitoring · 613-233-1115

Manotick homes aren't cookie-cutter, and their security shouldn't be either. Between the larger lots along the Rideau, the village core, and the detached garages, workshops and outbuildings that come with property out here, a Manotick system is designed, not picked off a shelf. We also cover Kars and North Gower down the road.

Cover the whole property, not just the house

Detached garages, workshops, boathouses and barns can all be brought onto the same system — door contacts and motions in the outbuildings, cameras on the driveway and water side, all reporting to the same panel and the same app as the house.

Village businesses too

Manotick's Main Street shops and offices run the same commercial setup as our city clients: staff codes, opening and closing reports, and 24/7 monitoring, from a company that answers its own phone.

Three ways to do this

What is on the wall in your Manotick home right now?

That one answer decides everything else — and in a lot of Manotick houses the panel that is already there can stay — on an app, or just monitored.

Nothing there yet

A new system

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.

There is a panel already

Keep what you have

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.

It works, it just is not watched

Keep it exactly as it is

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.

How that works →

In Manotick, specifically

What actually comes up here

Water is the bigger risk

A sump pump that quits in April, a well-pressure tank that lets go, a water heater at the end of its life. Flood sensors in the right places send an alert to your phone the moment water is on the floor, which on a well or a sump is usually the difference between a wet shop-vac and a wrecked basement.

Signal on bigger lots

Stone foundations and long setbacks can weaken cellular indoors. We check the panel's own reading before leaving, and an external antenna usually fixes it.

Away for the winter

Heading south? Send us a vacation notice with your dates and who is checking the house, so the station knows who to call. A camera or two lets you look in yourself.

Questions

Manotick questions, answered.

Can you put my detached garage or workshop on the alarm?

Yes — outbuildings are a standard part of Manotick installs. Wireless sensors reach across most properties, and cameras can cover the yard between.

Do you cover Kars and North Gower?

Yes — Manotick, Kars and North Gower are all regular service area for installation and service calls, and monitoring is 24/7 wherever you are.

What does monitoring cost in Manotick?

$9.99/month for your first year, then $14.99 + HST for a standard system or $16.99 + HST for a VISTA H3. Alarm.com, GSM/cellular, camera or doorbell service are additional monthly fees, quoted upfront when we discuss your options — everything upfront, no hidden agenda. Paid by pre-authorized bank payment (void cheque).

Can the alarm tell me if my sump pump fails?

Not the pump itself, but a flood sensor beside the pit tells you the moment water is on the floor — usually well before it becomes an insurance claim.

We have no internet at the house. Does Alarm.com still work?

Yes. The alarm reports over its own cellular radio and the app works from your phone. Only cameras need home internet.

Is Manotick covered by the Ottawa police?

Yes — Manotick is inside the City of Ottawa. The City's false-alarm fee applies, about $180 plus tax at the moment, set by the City and subject to change. It is not ours.
