SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (Nov. 8, 2024) – Resideo Technologies, a leading global provider of solutions for home comfort, energy management, safety and security, announced the First Alert^® VISTA^® H Series, a full-service, scalable security system designed for residential and light-commercial security installations. Unveiled at its CONNECT 2024 Customer Event, the new VISTA H Series builds on the dependability customers trust from Resideo's existing VISTA Platform and delivers a flexible solution that can easily integrate with the latest technology, which can reduce installation time and labor costs.

"For more than twenty years, our trusted VISTA portfolio experienced tremendous popularity, and our new VISTA H series offers our professional security dealers a modern hybrid solution for seamless wired and wireless upgrades," said Ryan Park, Senior Product Director of Safety and Security at Resideo. “Resideo is building on our legacy by bridging our past and our future with a security solution that offers cutting-edge technology and can grow with the needs of today’s customers."

The new VISTA H Series is compatible with existing sensors and peripherals, making installations easier for professionals. Its key features are:

• Versatility: It is a scalable hybrid platform supporting a wide range of applications. The new VISTA H Series supports new and cost-effective upgrades minimizing customer investment through compatibility and reuse of pre-existing peripherals and sensors.
  
  
• Simplicity: It is designed for improved operational efficiencies and return on investment.

A common installation and back-office process with ProSeries enables streamlined installation and customer support.
