We! At the Desert Sound Company, we are experts in making your home smarter, efficient, and highly customised to your lifestyle choices. If you are new to the world of automation of smart homes, then this guide is what you need. We are going to take you through what it entails, how to initiate it and the nature of the process.

Smart Home Automation

Smart home automation is the assimilation of electronic devices and systems in your home that can be remotely controlled or automated. Such things are lighting, heating, security, and entertainment systems, to mention but a few. With the help of applications, verbal instructions, or even a regimen, a smart home provides a perfect balance between technology and your life.

Think it over as you adjust your lighting, turn on your favourite playlist, or use your voice command to lock your house, all with a click on your smartphone. All these characteristics are combined in one, simple and sound system in Desert Sound.

Why Choose Smart Home Automation?

Smart automation has a real, concrete advantage:

Inconvenience: Everything will be under the control of your phone or voice assistant.

Comfort: Design your scenarios on mood or routine.

Efficient Energy: Transform the HVAC system and lighting automation to conserve energy.

Future-readiness: Turn up new features and devices with needed changes.

Security: Check what goes on in your house using smart cameras, alarms and sensors.

As clients of Desert Sound, initially most of them start with straightforward configurations such as lighting systems and media automations and then grow into systems complete home automations.

3. To Start With, What Is Required?

Adopt the basics before embarking on the high-tech realm of automation. This is what you ought to take into account:

a. A Stable Wi-Fi Connection

Spiffy systems are quite dependent on a regular internet connection. We never hesitate to upgrade to an area-wide network with a mesh network that would not require reconnection as one moves through the home.

1. A Central Control System

It might be a touchscreen mounted on the wall or something in the form of an app controller or a voice assistant, such as the Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa. Our integration is professional with services such as Control4 and Creston, so that every device can communicate with one another.

c. Smart-Compatible devices

Make the necessities like:

•       Fancy lighting (Philips Hue, Lutron)
•       Nest, Ecobee Smart thermostats

Smart switches and powers: The Smart switches and powers Smart switches and powers are devices that have been connected to the network and are managed by a computer. Smart switches and power have been integrated with the network, and a computer controls it.

•       Smart doors and doorbells
•       Home audio theatre systems

We assist you in picking high-performance devices that click and don’t pester you with problems of compatibility, as happens to those who are using them for the first time.

4. Your First Smart Systems

When getting started, we suggest using only one or two of the following systems:

a. Lighting Automation

Lay out mood lighting, time the lights to turn on/turn off or use with motion sensors. You may even synchronise them with your home theatre to give you the cinematic effect.

b. Audio Control 

Manage sound system, TV, projector and media players in one location. Our learning and knowledge in home entertainment systems will guarantee you that your media experience is not only smart but spectacular.

c. Climate Regulation

Smart thermostats will know your routine and will assist in organising energy consumption with comfort.

d. Access & Security

Installation of smart cameras, doorbells and sensors so that you can monitor and regulate remotely, so you know that you will be safe at home or on the move.

5. Integration: Getting Things to Work Automatically

The actual brilliance of intelligent automation is the communication of devices. We make sure everything is harmonised in the Desert Sound. When you say Movie, it becomes immediately dark, a projector falls, and the sound system comes on.

We design our scenes and routines with platforms such as Control4 and Creston, which fit your lifestyle. Wish the blinds to go up as the sun rises? Or does your air conditioning turn itself off when you are not home? And we smoothly allow that.

Some of the Mistakes to be Avoided

Being specialists in smart homes, we encountered the pitfalls that inexperienced people fell into:

Purchasing an unreasonable number of devices, instead of planning to integrate them
