Copper theft:

by Rick Overholt on May 11, 2011

In case you haven’t heard, there has been a rash of air conditioners being stolen and vandalized throughout Texas. I am hearing of these crimes on almost a daily basis now.

The crooks are stripping air conditioner units of their copper, while destroying and vandalizing the units. Often they are climbing on top of large one and two story buildings to find their targets. Endangering their own lives stripping out copper on live units with 220 volts and higher service.

Home and business owners are having to pay large sums to replace these units, even if they are insured, they are paying some healthy deductibles,

Is there an electronic deterrent for this criminal activity?

Yes! We have been installing air conditioner alarms for many years, using one “old school” alarm solution, and, a very new high tech wireless solution. This is a reliable, stable system that has helped catch dozens of these crooks over the past 2 years.
