With Control4, homeowners can easily adjust or create “scenes’” or “buttons” that automate multiple devices based on time of day, temperature, or occupancy.

You can even ask to see a demo so you can see Control4 in action. The consultation and planning portion of the project is an educational process, don’t be afraid to take your time and there are no dumb questions.

Professional Installation
It goes without saying that the professional is emphasized here. Please do not buy your own equipment online and hire some guy who thinks he knows what he’s doing. You're going to end up with a system that never works and to top if off you'll have to hire a professional to fix it all. Buy nice or buy twice! I'm serious, I could start a second business just cleaning up other peoples messes in this industry. Control4 systems need to be installed and programmed by technicians who have been certified by Control4. These credentials can easily be provided upon request.
