Step1
Evaluate your home. When looking through your home consider the following: placement of current security systems, number of people currently living your home, number of pets you have.
Step2
Examine your pets. Weighing your pets will benefit you because some motion detectors are immune to pets under certain weights. This will help you to better decide which detectors to purchase.
Step3
Determine the placement of your motion detector(s). This will help you in searching for the right detector for your home. Some motion detectors are made to accommodate specific rooms in your home.
Step4
Search various stores for your motion detector(s). Throughout your search for pet immune motion detectors, check the maximum weight measured by the censor as well as compatibility with other alarms and detectors you have in your home.
Step5
Test the pet immune motion detectors in store. If you are unsure about a specific motion detector, you can ask the store and they are generally willing to let you test it out in the store.
Step6
Purchase your pet immune motion detector(s). Once you’ve found the perfect pet immune motion detector for your home, buy and install it for use.
