Let’s design a smart home experience that thinks ahead, syncs together, and just works.

  • What happens if I want to make changes later?
    No problem. Control4 is flexible and upgrade-friendly. Plus, we’re here to help if you ever want to reprogram, expand, or enhance your setup.
  • Is Control4 worth it for a small home?
    Absolutely. You can start small—one room, one feature—and expand over time. It’s built to scale.
  • Is it hard to learn?
    Not with us. We customize everything and walk you through how to use it until you're 100% confident.
  • Can I use Control4 if I already have Sonos or Nest?
    Yes. Control4 works beautifully with Sonos, Nest, Lutron, and many popular smart devices.
  • Do I need Wi-Fi for it to work?
    Yes. While basic heating and cooling will still function without Wi-Fi, smart features like app control, learning, and energy reporting require a strong WiFi network. If needed, we can boost or upgrade your signal for optimal performance.
  • Can I connect my smart thermostat to Alexa or Google Home?
    Absolutely. Nest and Lutron smart systems integrate seamlessly with Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and many other platforms. You can also link them with your full home automation system or smart lighting setup for complete control.
  • Can I control different zones or rooms individually?
    Yes. With remote sensors and room-specific settings, you can manage different zones for maximum comfort. This is perfect for larger homes or multi-story layouts in areas like Myers Park or Ballantyne.
  • How much can I save with a smart thermostat in Charlotte, NC?
    Most homeowners in Charlotte see savings of 10–20% on heating and cooling costs after installing a Nest or similar smart thermostat. The more consistent your schedule, the more the system can optimize for efficiency.
  • How long does installation take?
    Most smart thermostat installs take under 90 minutes. If you're also integrating with motorized blinds, smart lighting, or upgrading your WiFi, we’ll walk you through the full schedule before we begin.
  • What’s the difference between a smart thermostat and a programmable one?
    A programmable thermostat follows a fixed schedule. A smart thermostat learns your routine, adjusts automatically, and lets you control it remotely from your phone or tablet. It adapts, saves energy, and works with other smart devices.
  • Does a Nest thermostat work with older HVAC systems?
    In most cases, yes. Nest thermostats are compatible with 85%+ of HVAC systems, including older units found in many Charlotte homes. We'll confirm compatibility during your consultation and can recommend options for upgrades if needed.
