Survey Shows High Demand for Security in New Homes

DALLAS

A new study sheds light on the demands of homebuilders as they construct new homes, and security systems are high on that list. The 2004 Builder Survey, to be released by Parks Associates in January, polled 400 homebuilders as to what electronic systems they add the most in the initial construction of a residence.

According to Parks, 79 percent of those polled say they are including security systems in the construction of new homes. That number is second only to programmable thermostats (84 percent) and ahead of HVAC systems (75 percent), structured wiring (68 percent), controlled lighting (63 percent) and intercoms (55 percent).
