Every Smart Home Is Different

These packages are starting points. We customize sensors, devices, and automations to fit your home layout and your actual routine. Want more leak sensors for the basement? A garage controller instead of smart lighting? Automations triggered by your work schedule? We build it around you — not a preset.

Built for Wisconsin Homes

We're local. We know what a Wisconsin basement looks like in April, what a $250/month heating bill feels like, and what happens when you forget to check the cabin.

💧

Leak Sensors

Wisconsin basements and spring thaw — protect your investment before it becomes a $10,000 problem. A $49 sensor and a 2 AM text message is a better deal than a dehumidifier, two fans, and a contractor.

🌡️

Smart Thermostats

Save 15–23% on heating in a Wisconsin winter. On a $200/month energy bill, that's $360–$480 back in your pocket every year. The Ecobee pays for itself in one heating season.

❄️

Freeze & Pipe Protection

Pipe freeze protection for vacation homes, cabins, and any space that sits empty through a Wisconsin January. Get alerted before pipes burst — not after.

🏠

Smart Garage Door

Did you leave the garage open in a snowstorm? Your phone will tell you. Automatically close it on a schedule, get notified when it opens unexpectedly, and never do that 20-minute mental spiral again.

Works With Your Existing Gear

We specialize in unifying fragmented systems. Whether you have Zigbee sensors, Matter devices, or legacy smart plugs, we make them work together in one private dashboard.

We live in the smart home we sell.

Our own house runs Home Assistant with UniFi cameras, smart sensors, and automations. Ask to see it in action — there's no better demo than the real thing.

Local AI That Doesn't Phone Home

Home Assistant's local processing means your home learns your routine without sending transcripts to a server farm in Virginia. No more "did I leave that on?" anxiety.

Private voice control — no cloud recording
Contextual automations — home learns your routine
Smart plugs cut power automatically when you leave
Works fully offline — no internet required

Frequently Asked Questions

The questions people ask before they realize they've been paying Amazon $4/month to hear the phrase "sorry, I didn't catch that."

Yes. Home Assistant runs entirely on local hardware in your home. Automations, sensors, locks, lights, cameras — all of it keeps working whether your ISP is having a bad Tuesday or not. The app on your phone will still work on your local network. Remote access (from outside your home) requires internet, but everything inside stays up.
Usually yes. Home Assistant integrates with over 3,000 devices across Zigbee, Z-Wave, Matter, WiFi, and Bluetooth. If you've got a box of random smart bulbs and plugs from three different brands, we can usually pull them into a single dashboard. We'll do an assessment first and tell you what's worth keeping and what's worth retiring.
No. Home Assistant is free and open source. The UniFi sensors have no subscription. There's no cloud service to pay for, no feature tier to unlock, and no "your automations are paused until you upgrade" email. You pay us once for hardware and installation, and that's it.
Easy. The system is designed to grow. Add sensors, cameras, smart switches, or whole-room automations anytime — they slot right into the same Home Assistant instance we set up for you. We also offer a la carte add-on visits if you want help expanding the system down the road.

Make Your Home Smarter

Your house should work for you, not the other way around. We'll design, install, and configure a system that actually fits your life — with no subscriptions and no cloud required.
