These days, people want their new homes to come with smart home technology. However, sometimes builders aren’t sure what direction to go when it comes to today’s technology. Is pre-wiring the way to go, letting the customers choose equipment and systems? Should they install specific smart thermostats and door-locks? What kind of hub or control systems should they use? With so many smart home options available, these questions and many others often leave builders unsure of the best route for their customers.

THE WRONG WAY VS THE RIGHT WAY TO BUILD A SMART HOME
Some people think if you have a set of smart devices, you’ll have a brilliant smart home. You can employ a variety of excellent smart devices like a Ring Doorbell, a Nest Thermostat, smart light bulbs, and smart Amazon Echo devices – but all that does not necessarily add up to a smart home. A homeowner who does this may have to contend with 5 different apps for control. Multiple app updates, incompatibilities, and the inability to access all features of all these devices from one central point might cause frustration.
The right way to get a truly smart home is to have all those smart devices controlled in a secure ecosystem where everything works together. So, instead of having several apps to learn and manage, you can integrate the devices in your St. Augustine home with one comprehensive, easy to use interface.
What is that solution? The platform is Alarm.com, and the smart control panel is the Qolsys IQ2+ Panel. DR Horton and Alpha Dogs AVS have partnered to bring homeowners this integrated, tested system that takes the guesswork out of smart home security. The smart locks, video doorbells, and other devices will work together seamlessly in the Alarm.com system, with a simple touchscreen and app for easy management. And, if the homeowner wants additional security, then they can add more devices as well.
