Why A Home Lighting Control System Is Worth the Upgrade
Lightbulbs have largely functioned the same way for nearly one hundred and fifty years—ever since Thomas Edison first invented them. Sure, colored light bulbs emerged, followed by fluorescents and spiral CFLs that use less energy. Still, all lightbulbs worked the same as always—you screwed them in, turned on a light, and that was that.
That is, until the LED light. With LED lighting, suddenly you can remotely control the appearance and atmosphere of your home like a magic spell. LED lights can be intelligently controlled to adjust their brightness and color and can even be managed in groups or as a whole system.
Upgrading your home with an LED lighting control system has proven to enhance both comfort and efficiency in many ways. Read on to find out how.

Designing Audio Systems for the Great Outdoors
Imagine you’re about to head into the backyard or onto the patio. Even though we’re in the middle of winter, soon the weather will grow warm and you’ll want to bask in the spring sunlight.

Unite In-Person & Remote Workers with A Digital Workplace System
To stay ahead, most businesses are constantly searching for ways to improve productivity, collaboration, and efficiency—and we’re sure your business isn’t any different. One such solution that has gained significant traction is the implementation of a digital workplace.
What exactly do we mean by a “digital workplace”? It’s not just using technology—a digital workplace is an integrated platform that combines various tools, applications, and technologies to provide employees with a centralized hub for their work. Even if your company meets in person, a digital workplace goes beyond a traditional office space and enables individuals to work seamlessly from anywhere, at any time.
The digital workplace empowers organizations to adapt to the modern era of remote and hybrid work. With the rise of cloud computing and advanced communication technologies, businesses no longer rely solely on physical offices to conduct their operations. Instead, they can leverage the power of a digital workplace to create a more flexible, efficient, and connected work environment.
Here’s how Texadia Systems can help your Dallas business adapt to a digital workplace. And if you’re ready to implement these solutions? Contact Texadia Systems here.

The Texadia Systems Guide to Backup Home Energy
Here in Dallas, we all remember the Great Texas Freeze of 2021. Millions of people were stuck without power or heat for days, and many experienced burst pipes and disaster at home.
Since then, more Texans have been cautious about relying solely on the grid in the future. If the power goes out, there’s no way to know when it will turn on again. Will it be only a few hours of chat around the candles, or will it stretch into days like last time?
So, as winter weather approaches, we’ve seen a surge of homeowners interested in backup home generators. But we shouldn’t wait for an emergency to purchase a generator. By then, there will be a rush of other people who also want one, and stores will be sold out for months.
By thinking ahead and ordering a home generator, your house will be prepared for anything. Here’s how home energy storage works and will protect your Dallas, TX, home.
If you’re ready to install a home generator, contact Texadia Systems here.
A Simple Upgrade to an LED Lighting Design

Today, you can ask Alexa to turn on the lights or ask Google Home to play a song—and sometimes it gets it right, while other times it doesn’t. It may not know which smart light you’re referring to or proudly begin playing the wrong song and artist.
But what if your voice assistant could actually comprehend what you were saying and respond to natural comments like, “It’s too dark in here”? Imagine asking for restaurant recommendations nearby and listening to helpful suggestions while you get ready, then promptly ask it to call to make a reservation.
