In Jacksonville, St. Augustine & surrounding counties, American Electrical Contracting, Inc. installs Home Automation and Smart Home Systems. Home Automation is the general term used to describe building automation for your residence.

With commercial building automation systems various functions can be controlled from panels in different locations, remote controls and central control stations. With home automation systems, a home owner has the ability to do the same thing. For example, control lighting, home theater components, plant watering, window shades, security systems and other functions. With the touch of a button, your lights dim, your shades go down, your door is locked, your home theater system comes on and you are now in movie mode. If this sounds good to you give us a call.

Over the years, like so many electronic products, pricing on home automation systems have come down, while the features and ease of use have increased. American Electrical Contracting installs both wired and wireless systems. If your home is already built and you want a wired system, no problem, our professionals can install what you want and no one will ever know that it was not part of the original plan.
