HVAC Copper/Metal Theft Prevention
Field-Proven, Simple and
Effective Copper Theft Deterrence
Copper Cop™ is an efcient, dependable and reliable security protection solution
designed to combat theft of commercial air conditioning (HVAC) units. Copper Cop
can be installed and activated in minutes by a security professional and, unlike
other HVAC alarm products, does not require an HVAC, Plumber’s or Electrical
Contractor’s License.
Thousands of commercial HVAC units are destroyed each year by thieves seeking
to gain quick cash by stealing copper condenser lines and selling them at scrap yards.
The cost of business disruption can be high, including replacement of the HVAC
system, and inability to use the facility while the HVAC service is being restored.
Additionally, repeated thefts increase a company’s insurance premiums, making
copper theft one of the most vexing challenges businesses face today.
Linear, a leader in innovative and cost-effective security products and theft prevention
systems, has developed Copper Cop for Security dealers and integrators whose
customers want a quick, secure, and active deterrence solution.
The Solution Is Here
Linear’s Copper Cop consists of a unique 30-foot cable harness with eight self-tapping
screw-in clip assemblies, connected to a weatherproof alarm interconnect box. The
system is ready to accept a wireless alarm transmitter or hard-wired connection to a
security alarm panel. Once Copper Cop is installed on the exterior of the HVAC unit and
activated, removal of the HVAC unit cover or tampering with the cable triggers an alarm.
