Re: Pre-Wired Alarm System



You "might" get a set of builder plans IF you pay for it...but most =
tract builders will NOT give or sell house plans because they are kinda =
copyrighted and they don't want people building their own copys of =
homes.

Aside from that NO home plan is ever an as-built showing accurate =
locations of plumbing, electrical runs.

Unless, you're building a custom I seriously doubt you'd ever get =
accurate plans of anything, let alone the alarm prewire!...sheesh alarm =
installs are low man on the totem pole...who has time to make up plans =
when your prewiring a home for 400 bucks??? never gonna happen !

I've done zillions of house over the years and have have only seen =
as-built plans only once for some anal retentive millioniare who didn't =
know which end of a blue-print was up. He actually did pay me for =
detailed plans of the alarm systems - there were two both systems, with =
redundant radio.=20

| Any DIYer with a tone set can also find them.  The tone set will cost =
