Find Entertainment in Every Corner

Do you find that completing tasks throughout the day has become a bore?  Now you can listen to your favorite tunes or binge-watch a TV show as you go about your day.

Whole home audio and video means you can set up your integrated system to automatically wake you up with a bright and uplifting song in the morning.  Or, play a soothing tune when it’s time for bed.

Watch a show in the media room, and have it continue into the kitchen or outside on the patio without missing a single scene!  It can all be controlled and scheduled on your smartphone or tablet, for easy use.

Keep Everyone Safe and Secure 

A smart security system is a great home automation feature.   You can watch everything going on in your home whether you’re nearby or far away.

Take a trip for the week, and watch real-time surveillance footage on your smartphone from where you’re vacationing.

You can set your alarm to “away” mode and have your lights turn on and off throughout the day, mimicking your daily routine and keeping away unwanted guests.

Control Your Lighting at Every Hour

No matter the time of day, you can decide exactly how much light in that you desire.  With automated window treatments and lighting control, you can go up against the sun’s rays and the nighttime darkness.

When it’s midday and the sun is blaring through your window, you can easily press a button to lower your motorized shades to keep out the light and protect your interiors.

As night falls, you don’t have to worry about remembering to switch on your inside lights or outside landscape lighting.  You can schedule them to turn on as soon as the sunsets or at a particular hour.

 

These are smart home automation features are great to add to your home in the new year.  Want to learn more?  Give us a call or fill out our quick online contact form to schedule a consultation with our team.  We’d love to hear from you!
