You’ve probably heard of smart devices or even have a few. Some of the most common are smart speakers, video doorbells, smart bulbs, and smart plugs. While these devices add convenience and enjoyment to your life, they pale compared to an integrated home automation system. 

At Wipliance, a home automation company serving Spokane, WA, and the surrounding areas since 2006, we’ve witnessed the changing landscape of smart homes. Today's technology has transformed our day-to-day lives, including our entertainment, lighting, and security. 

Let’s explore the makings of a smart home and how the right one transforms your lifestyle.

Adding a home automation system does wonders to turn an ordinary house into a luxurious home full of amazing “smart” experiences. You can completely modify your surroundings to create a lifestyle that satisfies your family’s unique needs by simply pressing a button or saying a voice command.

So, you’ve made your way from the frigid climates to the warm desert of Phoenix, AZ, to enjoy the weather, relax with friends, and sit by the pool until the end of spring begins to thaw the northern realms. Smart move. For some, it’s easy to leave their home behind, knowing they have a good neighbor to keep an eye on it or one of their family members to hold down the fort. 

For others, however, leaving their home unattended can be unsettling. Extreme weather conditions, thieves that set their sights on unoccupied homes, and months wondering if all is well back home can take their toll. What should be a relaxing and enjoyable interlude turns into a worrisome experience.

The great news is that integrating a few smart home devices or a whole home automation system can dispel your concerns. As a home automation company serving Phoenix, AZ, many of our clients are snowbirds that share their time between two states. Once we set them up with remote access and they know their home is secure, they can spend time relaxing and let their worries drift away in the warmth of an Arizona sun. Let’s see how it’s done.
