Smart Home Installation FAQ

Do you install smart thermostats like Nest or Ecobee?expand_more

We handle the physical mounting and setup of smart thermostats. The wire connections to your HVAC system are performed by a licensed electrician we coordinate with. Once installed, we configure the WiFi connection, set up your schedule, and walk you through the app.

Can you install a video doorbell?expand_more

Yes. Battery-powered doorbells like the Ring Battery and Google Nest Battery are a simple mount-and-connect job. Wired doorbells that connect to existing doorbell wiring need a licensed electrician for the wire connections. We handle all mounting, setup, and app configuration.

What smart home devices do you install?expand_more

Smart thermostats, video doorbells, smart locks, smart plugs, smart light switches (with licensed electrician for wiring), indoor and outdoor cameras, and smart garage door controllers. If it mounts on a wall and connects to WiFi, we can probably handle it.

Do I need a strong WiFi signal for smart home devices?expand_more

Yes — and this is where many smart home setups fail. Devices far from your router may drop connection. We test WiFi signal strength at each installation point and can recommend mesh WiFi systems or range extenders if the signal is weak.

Can you install smart door locks?expand_more

Absolutely. We install keypad locks, fingerprint locks, and WiFi-enabled smart locks from brands like Schlage, August, and Yale. Most retrofits use the existing deadbolt hole, so installation is straightforward. We test all entry methods and help you set up user codes.

What if my wiring is not compatible with a smart thermostat?expand_more

Some older HVAC systems lack the C-wire that many smart thermostats require. Workarounds include add-a-wire adapters or using a thermostat that includes a power adapter. The licensed electrician we work with can assess compatibility and handle any wiring modifications.

How We Handle Smart Home Installation

Every job follows a consistent process to ensure quality results.

1

Compatibility Assessment

We check your existing wiring, mounting location, WiFi signal strength, and device compatibility before starting. For smart thermostats, we verify HVAC wiring configuration. For wired doorbells, we check transformer voltage.

2

Physical Mounting

The device is mounted to the wall, door, or designated location using appropriate hardware. We ensure the mount is level, secure, and positioned for optimal performance (camera angle, thermostat air-flow, lock alignment).

3

Wired Connections (if applicable)

For any device that requires wire connections — smart thermostats, wired doorbells, smart switches — a licensed electrician handles the electrical connections. This is coordinated as part of the same visit.

4

WiFi Setup & Configuration

We connect the device to your WiFi network, install the companion app on your phone, configure settings, and walk you through basic operation. We test all functions before leaving — lock codes, camera feeds, thermostat schedules, and app notifications.
