A smart home system is an integration with multiple technologies and appliances to make everyday life easier, more efficient, and more enjoyable with energy use or your time. 

1. Home security (door locks) – You can have your own security code or a Bluetooth key-fob for hands-free entry.

3. CCTV – Low-profile cameras recognize faces and alert you to visitors.

Insulation in your house is the most important investment as it helps reduce costs. You can select your insulation level for a higher energy rating, and this will be installed inside your home’s walls and ceilings. 

3. Heating/Cooling System

Ducted heating is standard, but there are other upgraded options; you can opt from our standard three-star energy-rated system to a more efficient four, five or six-star rated one. As for the cooling system, a built-in air conditioner keeps your really hot summer days cool and comfortable.
