Keys to an Exceptional Smart Home: Partnerships and Customization

31 July 2024

Working with a Smart Home Contractor to Create Your Dream Autonomous Home

Smart home living is all about enjoying seamless and effortless control of all your connected devices. From lighting to climate, security, entertainment, and outdoor devices like pools, spas, and irrigation, everything is managed via a touchscreen, remote, automated programming, or your voice. 

Arrive at your home after dark, and the landscape and first-floor lights automatically illuminate. At the same time, the garage door opens, the entryway unlocks, the climate adjusts, and your ‘Welcome Home’ playlist streams through your home in stunning clarity. Home automation offers an incredible lifestyle that continues to elevate as technology advances at a lightning-fast pace.

As a smart home contractor serving Newport Beach, CA, our team at Hi Solutions has watched this incredible transformation unfold. We’ve discovered two critical strategies for providing our clients with the best possible experience. 

Let’s explore what it takes to enjoy your smart home to the fullest.

The Right Partners 

The brain behind your smart home is the home automation platform. All your devices and systems connect to the platform and each other. This integration creates an exceptional ecosystem in which one aspect of your home responds to another. 

When the shades rise to bring in diffuse sunlight, the lights dim, and the temperature adjusts. As the temperature rises, the shades lower to reduce heat gain, and the lights brighten. It goes throughout the day as a smart home that responds to changing conditions to meet your preferences and needs. 

We choose our partners based on your unique property and requirements and who is best suited to provide the best experience. Two of those in the smart home world are Control4 and Savant. While both offer incredible experiences, each is better suited for different types of homes, lifestyles, and priorities. 

Seamless Integration

As home automation becomes mainstream, new DIY systems, from smart devices to smart hubs, hit the market regularly. However, not all these systems integrate, and customized programming from a knowledgeable and experienced professional is missing. The result is a disjointed smart home requiring several apps to manage systems that don’t communicate well with each other.

At Hi Solutions, we ensure all your systems and devices work together and are managed from your centralized platform. From gates to garage doors, thermostats, pools and spas, entertainment, and even doggie doors, all devices are managed from a user-friendly device or activated due to the time of day or your location. It’s personalized smart home living at its finest.

For instance, when you press the ‘Relax’ button on a custom-engraved keypad, your home responds just as you want. For some, that may mean lights transforming to the color of candlelight and soft jazz streaming through the house and out into the yard. Outside, the spa is heating, and the landscape lights resemble stars and moonbeams. For others, that same button starts their favorite Netflix series in the media room, dims the lights, and closes the shades.

Hi Solutions is committed to providing people with easy-to-use, state-of-the-art technology that transforms and elevates their daily lives.
