Frequently Asked Questions

  1. What is home automation and how does it work?
     Home automation gives you control over lighting, climate, audio, video, and security from one central system—whether it’s a smartphone, tablet, or wall-mounted control. It makes everyday life more convenient, energy-efficient, and secure.
  2. Can I add home automation to an existing home, or do I need to be building new?
     You can absolutely add automation to an existing home. We offer retrofit solutions that integrate seamlessly with your current setup—no need to start from scratch.
  3. What’s the difference between a sound system and a home theater?
     A home theater is a dedicated space with optimized visuals and surround sound for a cinematic experience. A sound system can refer to music distributed throughout your home, indoors or outdoors, and may or may not be connected to a video setup.
  4. Are smart shades, lighting, and audio all part of the same system?
     They can be. Our integrated systems allow you to control lighting, shades, climate, and media from one interface. You can even create custom “scenes” for different times of day or activities.
