Why Smart Home Automation Matters in La Jolla
Smart home automation makes life safer, easier, and more efficient. You can lock doors, adjust room temperatures, and manage lighting directly from your phone or control panel. These features improve security, reduce energy use, and create daily convenience. Many families choose smart home systems to connect devices they already use with new technology for complete home management.
How Smart Home Systems Work
Our experienced techs will install a custom home automation system that allows you to control and monitor your home’s smart locks, security system, lighting, climate control, networked appliances, and entertainment systems from your smartphone using an app like TotalConnect® 2.0 from Resideo.
Smart home systems use Wi-Fi or Z-Wave connections to link devices to a central hub or control panel. Each device communicates with the hub and a smartphone app like TotalConnect® 2.0 from Resideo for remote management and automation features. For example, you can lock doors from your phone at night or adjust your thermostat on your way home from work. This connectivity keeps your home comfortable and secure.
