FAQs
The best smart home systems are not just the ones with heavy advertising. As a pro smart home installer we get a lot of customer feed back from many brands that they are unhappy with. A well built smart home system needs to be reliable, easy to use software for all devices, compatible with all brands and great customer support. We like to work with and promote great brands Lutron and Nest products.
Smart homes can accomplish a lot of great features for a home or business. Here is a quick list of devices that can be controlled: Ceiling fan control, automated shades, lighting, plugs, christmas lights, yard irrigation, landscape lighting, sound systems, television, door locks, cameras, fireplaces, garage doors. Smart home systems can also preform automated features such as schedules, random schedules, lighting scenes, lighting delay, lighting fade rate, Artificial intelligence, voice control, geo fencing, smart phone app control, notifications and indicators.
Smart systems cost depends on the amount of devices you want to be automated. An entry level smart device is between $50- $85 CDN for a better quality and functionality devices can range in the $150-$250CDN per device. Quality systems usually require a hub or a starter package to start. Then there would be an installation and programming cost from the installer.
The benefits of a smart home system are: Controlling multiple shades, plugs and lighting switches with one button. Scheduling exterior/ holiday lights, Voice control, energy savings, status of lights (on or off), control from anywhere, making scenes and geo-fencing. Customers love being able to turn their lights on when they are on their way home so they don’t come home to an unlit home.
Pfitztech Electrical & Data has the electrical background in lighting, controls and training to install Lutron and Nest/Google products.
Consider a Universal Remote Control (URC). Some salespeople or manufacturers try to force you into an exclusive system. They hook you with a free item or low-cost intro package, but when you add devices to your system, they cap your usage or say that you need to purchase a special compatibility device. Pfitztech has experience in setting up URCs so you can expand your system with as many devices as you want.
DIY often leads to unstable systems, poor Wi-Fi coverage, and unsafe electrical connections.
