Things to Consider During the Pre-Planning for Your Smart Home

This section is designed to help you begin to imagine the possibilities your new home can hold and to illustrate what planning steps are required today to accomplish your dreams tomorrow.

Wi-Fi & Network 

The average American home has over 50 wireless devices in operation, and that number is expected to grow well into the triple digits within the next couple of years. That being said, having a robust network is a vital part of ensuring that your new home is capable of supporting both your current and future technology needs. Here are a couple of things to consider, please answer them as they apply to you: 

What is the typical number of people online at once in your home?
How do you use technology for entertainment and work?
Where do you need internet access in your home?

TVs & Home Theater Entertainment

TV is an essential part of daily life, so planning where and how you'll watch in your new home is key. Pre-wiring is crucial, offering more customization options now and in the future. Investing in extra wiring gives you the flexibility to adjust your setup whenever you like. Take this opportunity to create the perfect TV setup for your new home by considering your needs carefully: 

How do you watch TV?
How do you want your TV's Placed?
Where do you want your TV's located?

Whole-House Distributed Audio

Even if distributed audio isn’t a priority right now, it might become important later. The pre-construction phase is the perfect time to install the necessary wiring for future needs. Our MIProTechs experts will guide you through all the possibilities to ensure you make the best choices. Think about how you’d like to experience sound and music in your home—this is your chance to set it up just right: 

What type of audio system are you interested in?
How many sound zones do you require?

Security, Surveillance, & Home Protection

Protecting your home and ensuring its security is more important than ever in today's world. Advanced surveillance systems play a crucial role in keeping your home safe. To ensure the seamless installation of these surveillance systems, it is essential to pre-wire your home. This allows for easy integration of cameras and other security devices. While some home protection devices are wireless, proper planning during the pre-construction phase is necessary for optimal placement and effectiveness.

Don't wait until it's too late – start preparing your home now to fully benefit from these advanced security solutions. Your safety and peace of mind are worth the effort: 

What level of security are you interested in?
Where do you want security cameras?
Are you interested in additional smart home safety features?

Integrated Control

When building a new home, it’s important to consider integrating smart home technology from the start. Planning ahead allows you to pre-wire for features like smart door locks, automated window shades, and smart thermostats, ensuring seamless setup and control. Investing in these technologies during construction not only enhances your home’s functionality but also ensures a smoother, more efficient installation process. Here are a few considerations you need to make during this early stage: 

Which home automation features are you interested in?

This system eliminates the hassle of dragging around a bulky vacuum and makes cleaning more efficient and convenient. Here are a few things to consider when planning for a central vacuum system:
