The
integrated home is the home of the future. Computer automation is
already taking over much of the common functioning that people used to
set by hand. You can set your sprinklers to go on and off automatically,
program your thermostat to heat and cool your home to specific
temperatures at specific times of the day in different seasons, turn
your lights on and off based on light level, room occupancy or time and
even automatically start your music or television programs in every room
in the house. These are just a few of the capabilities you’ll get with custom audio, video and home integration, and these elements are what make automation happen.
Residential Custom Audio, Video and Home Integration
Residential
automation can include any or all of the following home entertainment
and home automation solutions: audio/video systems, home theater,
multi-room audio control, multi-room video control, cable or satellite
integration, lighting control, central air and heat, central vacuum
systems, communication systems and even automated window treatments and
shade control for your windows.
The
integrated home features a combination of all the elements from many
different subsystems so that you can control them all from one central
program. The best home automation systems offer a single user interface
to control your whole house audio/video system, lighting control for all
rooms, thermostat and energy management, climate systems, home theater
and any other automated household systems. Add keypads for home security
and control, a universal remote and iPad or iPhone integration, and
you’ll be able to control your home from anywhere with a single simple
and elegant solution.
Where It Starts
The
base of a custom audio, video and home integration system is a
structured wiring plan that integrates your phone, cable television,
home networking and satellite television into one coordinated system
that can be controlled from one central location. From there, you can
choose to add multi-room programmable audio that plays audio of choice
in each room in the home, multi-room video so that each family member
can choose to watch what they want on their screens, custom audio, video
and home theater wiring and intercoms for communication and monitoring
every area of your home.
Advanced
home automation systems include control for your sprinkler and other
outdoor systems, lighting control for your entire home, remote control
for your security systems and even window and window shade control to
automatically open and close window shades for environmental control.
Even
if you don’t choose to have all of the home automation systems
installed at once, specialists in custom audio, video and home
automation can set up wiring/pre-wire your home so that the structure is in place when you’re ready to upgrade.
