Smart. Secure. Efficient.
The UltraSync system and mobile app give you the flexibility and freedom to adjust your security and home systems to match your lifestyle.
It provides complete home protection from the inside out. The system easily incorporates additional security and home safety devices for extra peace of mind.
The mobile app also lets you program and control your home’s lighting and heating schedule. The more efficiently your home systems operate, the more money you save.
Designing your Smart Home
Control – Where will you put the hub? This is basically a keypad and often can be placed on a desk or table somewhere in the living room. It can also be placed completely out of sight. There are also tablets available that are synced to the hub for ease of use. Of course, if you already have a tablet, you could always just load the free app and use your own device.
Security – How many doors do you want to protect? And how many windows? We recommend installing sensors on the basement windows, especially if they are of the sliding type. Do you require motion or glassbreak detection? How about a sensor on the garage door to let you know if it’s open?
Video – Want to add cameras to the system? Outdoor and Indoor types are available. The cameras come with included SD cards for recorded video, so you are always in control of your recordings.
Door locks – How many, if any, doors do you want to be able to remotely control? Certain garage openers can also be tied in to the system. These are especially handy when you want to give someone access to your home from a distance.
Environmental and Fire sensors – Keep in mind that monitored fire and security systems get home insurance savings of up to 15%. We let you decide how many sensors you need. We also have CO sensors, or combination types available.
Lights – How many lights, if any, do you want to be hooked up to the system? Later on, when you are creating scenes, which are certain groups of actions taken by the system, you can tie in the lights for “Sleep time” or “Home from Work time.”
HVAC – Many different brands of smart thermostat are compatible with this system. Call us to find out which ones. Smart HVAC control also comes in handy when creating scenes to safe on energy usage and to maximize comfort.
Voice Control – Amazon Alexa can contol your smart home using your voice. Keep in mind that Alexa can ARM the system but cannot DISARM due to safety concerns.
