I'm in the process of buy a new home..well house and landpackage together
Would like to get the new house automated to include the complete home automation system as well.
Need some help
1.Should i intereact with the builder to get them installed or get a seperate company to install it...in that way i will save money..no markups.
2.What type of system would be the best,wireless,seperate cable or using the mains power line(X10 system)?
3.Any adivce with what company should i go for,what questions should i ask to get the best deals and offer of service
4.Are there any maintence issues that i need to be aware off?
5.What the price range...ballpark figure?

hi
sorry forgot to detail that in
Yes-iam talking about full home automation system..controlling security, HVAC, music, theatre, lighting, retic, gates etc etc etc. all integrated
Have a look and Clipsal CBus
“There are 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary – and those who don’t”
If you want bells and whistles, look at Crestron. If you do, just make sure you're pockets are very deep and full.
HAI offers 10x more than both Crestron and Clipsal for 1/3 the cost.
And I'd probably steer clear of X10 unless it's only a minor part of the system. I have some stuff at my place but it's pretty old technology and can be unreliable.
You must have too much time & money on your hands if you want to keep an automation system going as well as all the other things in a modern house.
Pish posh!
What are all these 'toys' of which you speak. This is REAL HA.
You may also want a few of these for convenience...
Now away with your childrens play things.
