Choosing the ideal home security system in Chicago is easy with Vivint. The leader in modern smart homes is thrilled to introduce two new base options, HomeProtect and HomeProtect Pro. Whether you prefer no-nonsense protection or a full-featured system with surveillance and safety sensors, it’s available from Vivint. Explore these options and choose the best fit for your home.

What does HomeProtect include?

Vivint’s base plan still gets the job done with the fundamental features you need. It includes the following: 

The security hub is a panel-free component that acts as the command center of your Chicago home. Along with the tools listed above, you can customize HomeProtect systems with the following for an added cost:

Even though this is the base package, you still get Vivint’s award-winning 24/7 monitoring service, the powerful Vivint app, and a professional installation. 

How much does HomeProtect cost?

You have two options when selecting a HomeProtect system. It begins at $199 with a complimentary installation and a lower monitoring rate of $24.99 per month when you sign a 3-year contract. If you would rather have security without an extended commitment, choose the no-contract option. This choice requires an upfront cost of $349.99, a monthly monitoring fee of $29.99, and an installation fee of $199. You get the freedom to cancel whenever you want. 

What does HomeProtect Pro include? 

HomeProtect Pro is the premier package that offers access to all the best-in-class tools Vivint is known for. When you want video surveillance and other valuable devices like the dual smoke and CO detector, you will need to select this package. It comes with everything included in the HomeProtect plan but switches the Security Hub with the sophisticated touchscreen Smart Hub

HomeProtect Pro gives you access to the following:

  • Outdoor Camera Pro
  • Indoor Camera Pro
  • Spotlight Pro
  • Glass break sensors
  • Vivint Smoke & CO Detector
  • Flood sensors
  • Garage door control
  • Integration with Google, Philips Hue, and MyQ devices

Like the the entry package, you’ll get the Vivint app, pro installation, and 24/7 monitoring. The Doorbell Camera Pro, smart thermostats, smart locks, and chime extenders can be included with either plan.

Does the HomeProtect Pro come with all of Vivint’s equipment?

Not necessarily. You can configure this plan to only include what you want. While many Chicago families end up getting the complete lineup of safety devices and cameras, you can choose the components most important to you.

What’s the price of HomeProtect Pro?

Since this plan is totally customizable, the cost will be different according to what you choose. A Vivint agent will take you through the pricing and options. Feel free to inquire about any current specials. 

Begin with the entry plan and upgrade your Chicago security later

You understand you should secure your Chicago home, but you’re not sure you want to go with the top-tier plan. No problem. You can install the more economical starter package with the core essentials and then level up down the road if your situation changes. Vivint will apply your regular payment toward your upgraded system.
