Smart home automation is no longer a luxury limited to the top echelon. In fact, it’s rare to connect with someone who hasn’t embraced smart home technology to some degree. Why the popularity? 

While the reasons are endless, some top contenders are convenience, extreme beauty, and the best home entertainment. No more pulling on the shades when evening descends. Now, your smart home does it for you. No more switching on the light to the same monotonous hue. Now, you can access over 16 million brilliant colors and lighting that mirrors the outside world. 

When you’re ready to immerse yourself in high-fidelity music, you no longer have to head to the listening room. Now, you can enjoy breathtaking music throughout your home and outdoor oasis.

Push a button, such as “Entertaining,” “Relaxing,” “Reading,” and “Al Fresco Dining,” and the lights and music align. No wonder it’s so popular.

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.

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.

There are two ways you can add smarts to your home: the do-it-yourself way or the do-it-for-me way (or a hybrid of the two). There’s nothing wrong with taking on the project yourself, but you’ll eliminate frustration and enjoy a much more intuitive and reliable result when you bring in a professional installer.

While many homeowners in Phoenix, AZ agree that a professional smart home automation installation offers more rewards than a DIY installation, some worry that they’ll lose the ability to expand or personalize their system later on, or they’ll be limited to a narrow selection of products and brands that they can add to their smart home system. We’re here to bust these myths!
