"I was on the market for a security system and this one seemed easy enough to install.......went through the process and some of the window sensors were not working. I called Customer Support who was very friendly and we went through the entire process again...this time other window sensors did not work. This went on for a week or so...then the door senors stopped working....than the motion sensor stopped working...at no time in over a month did I have a fully operational security system. As I was about to return the system I was told they have "new" sensors and they just realized they received a bad batch and are working with another company.....Gave it a try....and same issue returned....some sensors worked....some didn't. I finally returned the system and stopped getting emails.....only to find that they were still billing my credit card even after I returned the equipment. Very nice people and very understanding.....unfortunately their product is not up to par. While we do have a large home, it's an open concept and the sensors that weren't working were no more than 15ft away from the base. The previous owners of my house had a wireless system with no issues at all.....I'm going to be using that company going forward."

Plus, we do it for as little as $99 down with monthly payments as low as $34.99. At Uxari, you will talk to a real person when you have a question, 7 days a week. So go ahead, start enjoying your new life style, knowing answers to all your questions are only a call or an e-mail away. And the best part is all of our services come with a 30-day, risk-free trial.

"The Smart Home features they installed, such as thermostat and door locks, etc. do not always work. For example, the Honeywell thermostat can no longer be operated from our phones and is difficult to install. Remote door locks are also unpredictable."

Options HME, Inc. sells, rents, installs, and services home accessibility equipment in St. Louis Missouri, surrounding communities, and the Metro East. We take pride in the service we provide to our customers before, during, and after the sale. We are focused on providing you or your loved one with the service, products, and support to continue living independently at home. We are not a home medical equipment company or a contractor installing stair lifts on the side. All we do is stair lifts, vertical wheelchair lifts, grab bars, and ramps for the home. With our focus being on just a few products, we are able to purchase in large volumes at a discount. We then can provide our customers with the best products and services at the best prices. Our resources are dedicated to servicing and supporting this limited number of products. As a result our accessibility customers do not wait for service behind customers with more urgent needs or big job customers. We are not a foreign owned company using high pressure sales tactics to force customers to purchase equipment that may or may not be right for them. We are locally owned in the St. Louis area. We believe in taking the time to assess the home situation and provide our customers with the information and options they need to make the right decision for themselves or a family member. We are not a here today gone tomorrow handyman doing lifts and grab bars now and then. We have been selling, installing, and servicing home accessibility equipment since 2007. We do not use subcontractors and all our sales and installation personnel are factory trained, ensuring the safe and proper installation of your accessibility equipment.

"Jim Campbell, owner, is a pleasure to do business with. He's professional and friendly at the same time. He explained everything to my satisfaction. He sent his son to do the installation, and he was equally professional and friendly. He too explained everything before and after the installation. He did a good cleanup after he was through."

Home Automation questions, answered by experts

Activation involves checking all zones, ensuring proper water flow, and testing for leaks or malfunctions.

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.

Although they come at some expense to purchase and set up, given the water savings a smart sprinkler can offer, many homeowners think they’re well worth the cost. If you already have a sprinkler system installed, some smart sprinkler controllers can simply replace your existing sprinkler timer—a process you can do if you’re comfortable with basic wiring.

When dealing with electrical work, getting several projects done at once can save you time and money. If an electrician is coming to replace a circuit box, have them replace outlets or light fixtures, too. Adding light switches, outlets, and fixtures to any electrical project you have going on is the most common way to get home improvement projects done quicker.

One significant drawback of home automation is the increased risk of cybersecurity threats. With more connected devices in our homes, there's a greater chance that hackers might try to exploit vulnerabilities to access personal data or even control your devices. If you don't secure your smart gadgets properly, they can become entry points for cyberattacks, risking your privacy and safety. Moreover, technology isn't perfect. Sometimes, systems can malfunction or experience connectivity issues, disrupting your daily routines. The upfront cost of buying and installing smart devices can also be a hurdle for some people.
