4 Signs You’re Ready for Smart Home Automation

There’s a difference between purchasing plug-and-play smart devices—like a video doorbell—and a fully integrated smart home. A true smart home is seamless and streamlined, with every device synced to the same controller. And when your smart home is installed by a professional, technology and controllers blend into the walls with no wires or obtrusive gadgets in sight.

If you’ve been thinking about smart home automation for a while but aren’t sure if it’s right for you, you’ve come to the right place. We work with new homeowners daily in West Palm Beach, FL, and we’ve seen skeptics or hesitators grow to adore their smart home systems.

Here are four tell-tale signs you’ll love smart home automation!

  1. You Run a Busy Schedule

If you’re always in a rush to get out the door, let your smart home system help you! Through one command, your home will lower the window shades, turn off AC, power off lights, and lock the doors. You can close down the house by pressing an “Away” button on a wall keypad or tapping the setting on your system’s app. Hands full? Tell your voice assistant “Goodbye,” and your house will power everything off.

And after a busy day? With a single command, you can turn off the lights, lower shades, and set the house to a comfortable temperature before bed.

  1. You Love to Set the Mood

Are you all about creating the perfect vibe at home? Whether it’s for a movie night in or hosting a party, you can adjust the lights, music, and multi-room video right from your system’s app. Set the lights to fun colors, choose the perfect playlist, and save the smart scene to use again next time.   

  1. You’re a Music Lover

Are you always soundtracking your days with new and favorite tunes? With a smart home system, you can easily enjoy music across your entire house. We can build a network of multi-room speakers that connect to the same system. So, with just a swipe on a touchscreen, you can select audio zones, choose songs, and listen from room to room. No headphones needed anymore!

  1. You’re Concerned About Energy Use

Whether you’d like to lower energy bills or make the most of your solar panels, home automation can help play a part. Energy storage and management solutions can be integrated into your smart home system. From there, you can monitor which appliances consume the most power, then automate them to turn off automatically when the house is empty. You can feel good about doing your part to help the planet (and your wallet)!

Used Don and Definitive for my new home A/V and Lutron needs in Palm Beach. Highly recommend them, they stood out in the craziness of new construction for being reliable and everyone sent to the house was highly skilled. Will work with them again

Had some speakers installed as well as some remote control blinds. The owner Don was very friendly and Brian and billing with the extra mile to explain everything that needed to be explained. The installer Ken is second to none. He even put batteries in my remote control.!

Our experience with Definitive Electronics exceeded our expectations in every way. From the Shade design, planned WiFi coverage and all of the TV’s, we couldn’t be happier. From the initial sales consult with Tom Samuelson to the final installation support from Ken Wright and the expertise of the overall installation by Rob Glucksman, it was a first-rate experience!
