Looking for a simple way to improve your property appeal, make your life easier AND reduce your energy costs at the same time? Then Home Tech Design has your solution with lighting controls!

Since we opened the doors here at Home Tech Design, we have been committed to offering only the finest and most reliable brands for every project we take on from Miami to Santo Domingo. Last edition we explored a variety of ways Crestron solutions make a real impact in reducing energy consumption and formulating a greener environment. But Crestron isn’t the only option in technology energy savings for your home or office. Control4 also allows you to combine high tech with positive environmental impact, not only giving you control of your home or business, but also making it easy to conserve precious resources like energy, water and time.

Since we opened the doors here at Home Tech Design, we have been committed to offering only the finest and most reliable brands for every project we take on from Miami to Santo Domingo. Some brands might be instantly recognizable to professionals in our industry, but that doesn’t always mean our customers know exactly who these manufacturers are or everything they have to offer in convenience and energy savings. For example, many are aware that Crestron and Control4 have been the leading providers of control and automation systems for decades. What they might not know is how their solutions can actually save energy and money. To rectify this, we’re making Crestron and Control4 solutions our features this month.

When constructing and designing "smarter" homes and businesses, it is important to have a winning team of contractors, interior designers, and architects working on your behalf. If one component is out of place, the timing and scope of an entire project could be in jeopardy.

As an audio video integration specialist, Home Tech Design has been called upon to work with many South Florida and Dominican Republic interior designers and craftsman to assist in the technology design process. Everyone loves the benefits of technology, but getting technology into a given space without compromising the integrity of the interior designer's vision takes skill and experience.

Welcome back!

As we mentioned in our previous blog, Home Tech Design is determined to be your resource for all things home automation. To that end, we wanted to focus this second edition on another of our key integration partners; Control4.

Imagine receiving an alert from your phone while you're away from home that says your garage door is open, and then it gives you the option of closing it. Or imagine pressing a button as you leave the house and your AC shuts off, your lights go out, and your alarm
system arms. Then, when you return home, another button push brings up the lights you have selected for that time of day, turns on your music or queues your television to your DVR. Such progress is no longer limited to your imagination and such functionality and ease-of-use has made Control4 a preferred entry-level solution for home automation.
