6 Questions for Choosing a Utah Smart Home System Company

by AVI Systems

When you seek to install a smart home system at your Utah home, you have many automation and A/V consultants to choose from.

How can you weed through the crowd to find the right smart home company for your project?

Today’s smart home systems, home automation, security and A/V systems involve complex technical components and programming – and that means you need a true industry expert. Moreover, your home’s comfort, safety and energy consumption may all be affected by your automation system.

Before you make an investment in home theater, surveillance or any other automation system, take the time to ask six important questions to the Utah smart home companies you’re considering.

No. 1: How Long Have You Been in Business in Utah?

If you’re going to invest in a smart home system, you need to know that the installer has been around long enough to know what they’re doing and that they’ll continue to be around in the future to support you and warranty their work.

No. 2: What Types of Smart Home & Automation Systems Do You Install?

Some home automation contractors have limited brands and equipment. Others are beholden to a single manufacturer or brand. Look for a smart home or A/V contractor who offers the respected brands and equipment you can trust – and be sure that you get a manufacturer’s warranty whenever applicable.

No. 3: What Is Your Process for Smart Home Projects?

Designing, installing and programming a home automation or A/V system is a complex process. If a contractor seems disorganized, overly casual or lacks a clear plan for taking your project from conception to completion, proceed with caution. They may perform your system installation and setup in an equally haphazard manner.

No. 4: Do You Have Financing Options?

Unless you have the cash to pay for your system outright – or a way to self-finance your project – smart home companies that offer financing options can make the process easier and less stressful.

No. 5: Do You Offer Support & Maintenance Programs?

You’ll need strong customer support for any questions or problems that may come up. If the A/V contractor offers comprehensive maintenance programs, this will help extend the life of your investment and ensure its ongoing optimal functioning.

No. 6: Do You Have a Local Utah Showroom?

Although you may not be a hands-on shopper, consider making an exception when choosing A/V and home automation system components – especially if you’re doing a home theater or hi-fidelity audio system. Being sure you’re getting what you want before its installed will save you time, money and disappointment.
