control4-one-app-to-control-them-all

Smart Home Control Is Done Right with Just One App

If you use multi-room audio, a home surveillance camera, and a smart lighting system in your home, there’s no reason to manage each piece separately. Technology is supposed to make life easier—not more complicated. Although the advances in technology would seemingly save us time, most of us still feel as busy as ever.

But with a Control4 smart home control system, you can merge all of your technology under one umbrella, even devices made by different manufacturers. From the Control4 app, you can manage lighting, audio, video, security, thermostats, motorized shades, and more. To see how the app will work for your Highland Park, TX home, continue reading below.

Control4: One System to Control It All

Home’s Easier to Manage When Everything’s Connected

Sometimes life can feel splintered—like everything’s disconnected. We try to make time for our work life, home life, hobbies, and exercise. We try to stay in touch with hometown friends, college friends, and family. Social events, errands, bills, to-do lists—it all can make anyone feel overwhelmed! 

We could all use a little simplification in our modern, hectic lives. But you don’t have to go off-grid to achieve simplicity. In fact, we can stay connected and use technology to live more effortlessly. When you own a smart home system like Control4, all your home’s devices and functions are controlled by a single home controller. 

And when you work with a Control4 dealer like Texadia Systems, we’ll design a personalized home system that syncs to your lighting, audio, video, security, and more. Rather than use separate off-the-shelf devices, here’s why it’s beneficial to have a smart home that encompasses it all.

Experience Lighting Control with a Dedicated Smart System

Why DIY Smart Lighting Doesn’t Measure Up to Professional Control Systems  

Once you’ve experienced smart lighting at home, it’s hard to go back to the standard on/off light switch. With smart lighting, you can bathe rooms in any color and brightness imaginable, from the coziest candlelight hue to fun nightlife colors. 

Many homeowners are tempted to DIY smart lighting with Bluetooth or Wi-Fi-connected smart bulbs from Amazon or Best Buy. But they may be unaware that for seamless control and automation—even from miles away—you need a sophisticated smart system like Lutron or Control4

What’s the difference between a dedicated lighting system and DIY smart lights? We’ll compare both below, so you know what to expect for your lighting control

Make Life Simpler (Not More Complicated) with Smart Home Control 

More people than ever are curious about smart home solutions. But if they aren’t careful, they can be led astray by DIY smart gadgets. It seems fun and easy to order a smart thermostat online and then purchase a few smart bulbs and speakers. But it’s less fun when you realize every device has its own app or remote to control it. 

Instead, you want a connected ecosystem that syncs all your solutions into one platform. From one app, remote, or touch panel, you have complete control over your security, entertainment, comfort, and more. 

Learn how smart home control works below, and contact Texadia Systems in Dallas, TX, to start your home upgrade today!

Why Smart Home Systems Can Do More Than DIY Devices

Enjoy Comfort & Convenience with a Fully Integrated Home Automation System 

So, you’re thinking about making your house a “smart home.” Maybe you’re interested in saving energy or the convenience automation provides. If you search the internet for smart home solutions, you’ll often come across DIY devices like Wi-Fi connected thermostats, voice speakers, and smart plugs that promise to make your house smart. 

While these devices can be useful in a small scale, they’re not the most effective way to build a fully automated home. Instead, professional home automation systems like Control4 can seamlessly control all of your home’s systems, even across multiple properties, from lighting to security to the home theater. 

Below, we’ll explain the difference between DIY smart devices and an integrated home automation system so you can make the best decision for your University Park, TX home.

How You Can Customize Your Smart Lighting System 

Have you used a smart bulb before? They’ve become increasingly popular in recent years and are even available at stores like The Home Depot and online on Amazon. While it’s fun to play with lighting colors from your phone, DIY smart bulbs aren’t a practical solution to illuminate your entire house. They often have trouble saving settings, don’t communicate with each other, and lack customization options. 

But there is an alternative. Sophisticated lighting control systems like Lutron and Control4 are built for whole-home control and are smart enough to group lights together and operate them on a schedule. 

The possibilities are nearly endless with high-end lighting systems that can be used to make your house look and feel more comfortable than ever. 

Here’s how you can control LED lights in your Southlake home with smart systems like Lutron and Control4. And to bring smart lighting to your Texas home, contact Texadia Systems here

When DIY Smart Homes Go Wrong

New plug-and-play devices like video doorbells lead many homeowners to think they can build a smart home system themselves.

If you try to assemble a system without experience, you’ll probably waste hours on a system that doesn’t work.
