● 24/7 Live Emergency Response — professional 24/7 monitoring by Lanvac Main: 613-233-1115  ·  After hours: 613-738-8779

Service Area

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.

First Alert · Resideo

A new system, from the ground up

The line we are a Premier Pro Partner for. If there is nothing on the wall yet, or what is there is past saving, this is usually the answer.

  • ProSeries all-in-one touchscreen, or the VISTA H3 hybrid
  • VX1 video doorbell, VX and CX4 AI cameras
  • Total Connect 2.0 app — lights, locks, thermostats, garage
  • Quoted for your building — and an estimate to approve before anything is ordered
Starting from$10.99/mo first year, then $14.99 plus HST · depending on the package you pick — all three are priced on the door

Monitoring only

Keep the panel 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.

  • Your existing panel and keypads stay where they are
  • Same 24/7 ULC monitoring and dispatch as every other plan
  • Free account set-up, programming and switch-over
  • Needs a real phone line — VoIP drops alarm signals

Keep the panel, put it on an app

If there is already a DSC, Honeywell VISTA, Qolsys or 2GIG panel in the house, it can usually stay — and go on an app for the first time. Also our smart-home line.

  • Takes over most existing panels without replacing them
  • Qolsys IQ Panel 5 for a new install
  • Cameras and doorbells with people, vehicle and animal detection
  • Every price published on the site
Starting from$14.99/mo first year, then $19.99 plus HST · depending on the package you pick — on a panel you already own

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 moving the panel usually fixes it — an external antenna is the answer on a takeover module.

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.
