How Often Should You Test Your Alarms, Replace Batteries, or Update Software?

Your home security system works 24/7 — but like any technology, it needs a little upkeep to stay reliable.

Here’s a quick safety checklist to keep your system in top shape:

✅ Test Your Alarm System: Once a month.
Make sure every sensor, siren, and keypad is responding correctly.

✅ Replace Batteries: Every 6–12 months.
Many wireless sensors and keypads will alert you when batteries run low — don’t ignore those warnings!

✅ Update Software/Firmware: Every 3–6 months.
These updates fix bugs, improve speed, and strengthen your system’s protection against new threats.

If you’re an Ackerman customer, our professional technicians can handle all this during your routine system check — keeping you safe, confident, and connected.
