The Alert program includes a wireless home security system with DIY installation and a subscription to a monitoring service offered by Roost.

[On a pale blue background, white security devices appear: 2 water and freeze detectors, 1 smoke alarm listener, 1 motion detector, 1 smart base, 1 keypad and 3 door and window contacts.]

What's more, all the equipment is delivered right to your door!

[The devices disappear and then a box is shown with text reading "Alert^TM program" above a stylized house with a Wi-Fi icon over the door. Blue text on the bottom panel reads, "Roost." A booklet titled "Alert^TM program, Installation and User Guide" appears behind the box.]

Set it up in a few simple steps and manage everything yourself from The Personal app.

[On-screen text: How does it work?]

The smart security system connects to your home Wi-Fi network and can detect events such as smoke, water and freeze damage, intrusion or even a power outage.

[A black and white house with a green car parked out front appears next to the phone. A Wi-Fi icon pulses above the roof. The car drives away. Four icons labelled "smoke," "water and freeze," "intrusion" and "power outage" emerge from the roof and move onto the phone screen.]

The system then sends a text message or notification to your smartphone. This gives you time to act quickly to prevent or limit damage to your home.

[On-screen text: Wherever you are.]

Depending on the type of alert, Roost's central station may send emergency services to your home.

[On-screen text: 24 hours a day. 7 days a week.]
