Our top priority at ACS Security is the safety and well-being of our clients and their properties. We are closely monitoring the situation and want to assure you that our monitoring center is fully redundant. This means that even if we lose power in our Bel Air office, we have a backup solution in place to continue monitoring and dispatching our patrol officers.
The following is an excerpt from the LAFD’s full Storm Preparedness Page HERE with some great information. ?
