Home Automation questions, answered by experts

These are some of the critical considerations when planning to make your home accessible:

  • How wide are your doorways, wheelchair ramps, hallways, and pathways? These should be at least 32 inches wide.

  • Which bathroom modifications will be necessary? 

  • Do you need to lower any cabinetry or other fixtures to make them accessible for wheelchair users?

  • Is there enough room to turn around in the shower?

  • Is there a second story of the home that requires a stair lift?

  • Is there proper lighting outside in the dark? If not, a floodlight may be necessary.

If you don’t want the hassle of installing smart light switches, you might consider replacing all your bulbs with smart ones. Simply screw in the smart bulb and download the app to allow you to switch the lights on and off remotely. You can even change the bulb color to create a certain ambience in a room. However, these LED bulbs are pretty pricey, especially if you already have specialty light fixtures, and you won’t have to just replace them once like you will with the switches. 

You can still install a smart thermostat without a C-wire, but it may not work as accurately or efficiently without one. Without a C-wire, a smart thermostat may disrupt Wi-Fi connectivity to other devices or can cause the HVAC system to cycle continuously, which puts more strain on the system and can lead to damage.

The difference between smart home and home automation technology is that home automation is a more comprehensive home control system. It requires more expertise and work to install and set up, but homeowners have greater control over the various areas and functions in the home via their smartphone. Smart home technology is generally easier to install and set up. But it typically needs an internet connection to work as intended, which can limit functionality if there’s a disruption in internet service.

Yes, most services include necessary hardware like anchors, screws, and wall brackets, though custom shelving may require specific mounting materials.
