Home Automation

Home Automation refers to integration and control of lights, appliances, security, thermostats (HVAC), audio and video to bring these systems together and provide enhanced comfort, convenience, security and energy efficiency. Home automation is here TODAY. Home automation is no longer for the rich and famous and it's no longer a technology of the future.

With an automated home or business, your lights and appliances can be set to turn off and on based on simple schedules or they can be activated based on room occupancy, electricity demand or cost.  By tying subsystems like lighting and security together, lights can be made to turn on in an emergency, or automatically as we pull in to our driveway and enter the home.  Ventillation systems can be shut down automatically in case of a fire and lights can be activated to get everyone out of the building safely and quickly.

One of the 'coolest' applications of home automation is the control of lights and appliances using an internet enabled iPhone, Android phone or other Smart phone. It's easy and affordable - NOW!

Scene lighting or motion based lighting can light a path to the kitchen or bedroom and lights can be turned off when rooms are no longer occupied to save energy.  Heating or air conditioning can be set to automatically turn down when the security system is armed AWAY and can be adjusted to a comfortable level by phone or Internet enabled Smart phones.

With several retrofit technologies available, home automation is easily within reach of everyone's budget and can be installed almost anywhere.  Please let us know if we can be of any assistance in selecting products or technology to bring home or business automation in to your life.
