WHOLE HOUSE AUTOMATION
High Def Technologies co-creates custom design systems with residential/commercial owners to better understand specific lifestyles and desires. We then program different modes, e.g., entertainment mode, vacation mode, or sleep mode, that represent various sequences of events at specific times. These modes can be set to work automatically, manually, or in tandem. With a touch of one button a homeowner can turn back the thermostat, turn off the indoor lights, turn on the exterior lights, make sure all of the video and sound equipment is turned off, close all of the windows, adjust the space to perfection remotely after returning from your vacation etc. The choices are as limited or unlimited as you want them to be.

Your High Def Technologies smart home system is:
  • Unlimited---Manage your system over any WiFi network, with unique security features that identify and authenticate your High Def Technologies smart home system to your iPhone, iPod, Touch or iPad to eliminate unauthorized access.
  • Powerful—Enjoy all the features of your High Def Technologies automated home system, including security system management, zone and whole home control, media player device control and Rhapsody playlist support from your mobile device.
  • Easy to Use—Control your entire system, access music and movies by cover art and even view images from the cameras around the house.
  • Intuitive---As you open the garage door at night, the lights in the house automatically turn on to welcome you home or to alert you in a special way for security purposes. Touch one button by your bedside and know that all of the lights are off for the evening, and that when your little one makes a run for a midnight snack, the hallway lights will show him the way.
Designing you High Def Technologies Smart Home is an extension of your creativity and imagination.  All is possible from simple home theatres to state-of-the-art  whole house automation with motorized blinds, lawn warning systems and more.

CLIMATE CONTROL/HVAC
Working late or dining out before heading home? Simply go online and set your thermostat to your desired temperature instead of having it heat or cool an empty house.

Advanced temperature control is a simple and affordable addition to any home. By automating systems to conserve energy, you can control your energy costs—when you're home or away. Plus, High Def Technologies is helping homeowners learn how much power they are using during peak hours, when electricity is more expensive—so you can curb your monthly bills and ease your eco-conscience.

Save Energy and Money.  Not only is climate control easy to use, but with proper programming, it can be a real energy and money saver. Imagine going to bed without having to get back up because you forgot to turn the heat down; your program can automatically turn down your heat at the exact time of the day you wish. Whether it is a night time schedule, a work schedule, or a vacation schedule, a High Def Technologies smart home climate control system affords you the benefits of money and energy savings. It is one less thing you need to worry about.

STRUCTURED DATA NETWORKS
High Def Technologies utilizes the fastest, most reliable networking option available. Whenever possible it's best to install a system on which PCs and other devices can speak to each other over a dedicated infrastructure of cabling. Typically the bundled wires consist of two runs of RG-6 coaxial cabling and two runs of Category Cat6e communications/Ethernet wiring.  Multiple uses of Cat5/6 as well as Coax are available.

The below photos show a common scenario where we're asked to fix work done by other companies.

You can now have the freedom to see and talk to whom ever is at your door even if you're not home and the possibilities are endless.  Let the nanny or cleaner in while you're away, lock or unlock the house if the kids forgot, close the garage door, set enhanced vacation security levels and more.  The mobile possibilities enable you to do this easily from wherever you are.  You can program you lights to perform your usual patterns to appear that you're home, even when you're not and you can keep an eye on your home from virtually any location while you're away from your home.
