  1. I would agree with PJ the first question ask is if the system specificly requires monitoring for insurance or if it's just for keyholder only. There are no regs for sharing equipment so difficult to make both systems conform to each others. When it comes to cost it's a life safety system so if the RA says the fire needs comms then I wouldn't see sharing the intruder being an option to offer at all. Battery standby
  2. They are for different markets there won't be an exact equivalent
  3. Hardware manufacturer recommendations are never straight forward, everyone uses different kit. I'd think most top end stuff would be capable of integration if you know how to connect it.
  4. It's things like small bits of grit and dirt that wreck the pump tho, adblue or tap water would be different. Something similar to what JW posted would be more suitable they often have a float switch attached to them, they ain't supposed to be permanently fitted tho.
  5. Wouldn't think they would last long for grey water tho?
  6. "Call Alarm Company" is a hint? Installer would need to do this.
  7. Spoiled the fun now, I thought everyone would get a guess.
  8. The spider manifold things are useful but I am still not a fan of plastic. Can recommend trace as above, issue is the supply and would likely be an awkward run if you want to protect all the external pipe work as well
  9. Wouldn't speedfit stuff suffer from fatigue being outside?
  10. Sounds like something is wired wrong or broken to me.
  11. That's only for remote arming apps as part of the system IIRC. Third party connections are not going to conform to relevant EN's.
  12. I still fail to see the point with integration to the point where you allow third party devices to control the intruders arming and disarming, your just crating more surface area to be exploited. Sure I have said this on another thread but what really do you want the home assistant to do with the alarm? Yes it's nice if things can interface with each other for extra functionality but the main goal is security and people forget this.
  13. Don't have any Pre Elite panels they're for the bin if they get ripped out TBH.
  14. I can't see it being supported configuration at all but plausible that the expanders could be "understood" by both panels they wouldn't be "linked" in that sense tho.
  15. Most likely two separate systems. Connecting two via data isn't a thing AFAIK, certainly not supported if somehow that is the case.
  16. Ideally you would have the system serviced annually and as part of that the batteries in all the devices would be replaced as required, I assume there was a reason for cancelling that? ADT Visonic systems use components that run on a different frequency so support for replacement parts would be limited to ADT without buying second hand. While it's possible any engineer maybe able to get you sorted if it's simple or just batteries, but your going to get limited support and may not be able to get the app back online. One thing that may point you in the right direction if you keep pressing the "i" button it should point you towards the faults stopping it from arming.
  17. I thought you where better than that?
  18. Does look like the safety of the shed now to be fair...?
  19. Been a while and only played with one but don't you use the last 4 digits of the account number on the panel with dial capture? It may well be just something not setup on CSL end tho
  20. Not saying it wasn't good well built kit and worked well, that doesn't take away it was overpriced that was confirmed to me by an ex-DM guy.
  21. DM was overpriced and look what happen to them for not innovating and trying to compete.
  22. High and low sensitivity in panel end and pulse count is per sensor, they are completely different things.
  23. Nope on the PIR's
