Consumers are demanding that their new homes come with smart home technology. Builders are usually left not sure what direction to go when it comes to technology. Should they still pre-wire the house? Should they include a smart thermostat or doorlock? What will the hub be? These and several other questions often leave builders confused and unsure what direction to go.
This is where we can help! As experts in home technology we can help the builder know the options available to best help their new homeowners.
The best smart home option for builders is one that provides homes with one smart secure ecosystem where everything is all together in one. Now instead of having several apps, you can integrate it all through one app. One secure touchscreen panel is the center of it all.
The app is alarm.com and the panel is the Qolsys IQ2+ Panel. Several of our preferred builders are doing it the right way. They are having a lock, thermostat, and doorbell installed that all use the same app and platform. They can control it all from their Amazon devices as well. In addition, if the homeowner wants additional security they can add more devices.
