If a new area code is coming to your service area — or in the service area of your security alarm company — you need to call the company to see if your system needs to be modified. Get the answers to these questions:
•
Does my security system dial a preprogrammed telephone number to the security company in case of an emergency?
•
If so, does that preprogrammed phone number include an area code?
•
What must be done in order to preprogram that number with the new area code?
Special Note for Security Alarm Companies:
If you are a business that provides security services, you will want to make sure that any programmable equipment has been checked to accommodate these area code dialing changes.
