Smart Home Setup

The term "smart home setup" refers to the process of designing, installing and configuring the various devices that will enable many home processes to be automated. The end result will be a home that's more energy efficient, more secure and which lifts the burden of performing repetitive tasks over and over from you.

Every year more smart home devices arrive on the market but unless you can make these various devices work together any benefit they provide will be limited at best. A smart home setup enables you to dictate the features of your smart home system, sync them, and enjoy optimal benefits. A proper smart home setup will also include enough wiggle room for you to add to the system down the line when you want to incorporate new features.

Why Choose Connect Automation to Perform Your Smart Home Setup?

We are well aware that we are not the only company these days offering smart home setup. But we are the best. Here are just some of the reasons so many homeowners choose Connect Automation over the competition.

  • Many of the other companies offering smart home setup today did not exist when we first started selling and installing smart home systems. We are one of the most experienced teams out there and continue to set the standard for newcomers to aspire to.

  • We understand that our customers have busy lives and so our smart home technicians show up when they say they will. We also make certain that every aspect of your smart home setup works exactly as it is supposed to before we declare a job done.

  • The last thing you want is the nightmare contractor who parks on your lawn, takes food and drink from your refrigerator and spends more time texting their gf than they do working. That will never happen when you enlist Connect Automation to handle your smart home setup. Our team members treat every aspect of your property with the utmost respect and work hard the entire time they're in your home.

  • The last few years have been challenging for everyone and homeowners want to get the most out of every pound they spend. We understand. That's why we strive to keep our costs down so that we can pass any savings on to our customers.

  • We don't have former customers. We have customers and we put as much care and dedication into answering their questions and addressing their concerns months after we complete a job as we do while we are executing the work. This is why so many come back to us year after year for maintenance and upgrades of their systems.

  • Anytime we are on the job you can be sure everything we do is done in compliance with best practices and with the latest and most rigorous safety standards. You will never have to worry about your system cutting out on you due to short circuits and the like.

  • Regardless of the size and complexity of the smart home setup you have in mind, we can handle it. It all goes back to those many years of experience we talked about earlier, as well as our insistence that every member of our setup team undergoes constant upgrading of their skillsets.

Why Consider a Smart Home Setup from Connect?

There are a lot of good reasons to transform your home into a smart home, including:

Enhanced security: With a smart home setup you can have total control of who comes and goes from your home. And if delivery people or contractors arrive while you are out you can talk to them through the system and either tell them you'll be right home or make other arrangements. And if someone tries to break into your home when you're not there you will be notified no matter where you are on earth.

Convenience: The thermostat kicks in when you're on the way home. Lights turn on when you enter a room. Blinds rise and fall at designated times, even when you're away. You can see who is trying to enter your home even while you're at work or on holiday. It's all part of the convenience revolution embodied by smart home technology.

Greater energy efficiency: With a smart home setup you'll never leave your home again and then realise hours later you left the thermostat up. The system will shut it down for you. When you're home, lights can follow you from room to room; turning on when you enter a room and turning off in the room you just left. These are just a couple of ways you'll save energy (and money).

Insights: A smart home setup can provide you real-time insights into how your home is being run. This enables you to make adjustments if you find waste and make your system even more efficient and effective.

The Smart Home Setup Process

  • Design: The first thing to do is to meet with the client, learn their needs and wants and then, working with them, design a smart home setup that will fulfil those needs.

  • Rendering: Once the design is finalised we create a 3D rendering of your home that indicates how the setup will look and act once in place.

  • Create a Wi-Fi network: Your devices will communicate via wireless connections. So before we install any devices we create the Wi-Fi network they will use to talk with each other, and you.

  • Installing the devices: The next step is to install the smart home devices. When this is done we move onto the next step.

  • Configure: Each installed device then needs to be configured to adhere to your wishes and integrated with your preferred control platform.

  • Testing: Finally, we test the entire system until we are convinced it will deliver for you.
