Home automation questionnaire

Plan your smart home

by Integreat Electronics

Tell us how you would like your home to work. Your answers help us understand what matters to you, recommend the right combination of platforms, and prepare a proposal tailored to your home and the way you live in it.

How we approach it

One system for
the whole house

The best automated homes are built in layers. A backbone such as KNX runs the lighting, climate, blinds and energy, and keeps working whatever happens to the internet. On top sits the interface you use every day, whether that is Basalte Home, Control4 or Savant.

You do not need to know which platforms suit you before you start. Tell us what you would like the house to do, and we will recommend the combination that fits. You can read more about each platform on our automation page.

  • Lighting, climate, blinds, security, energy and AV working together as one system
  • Platforms chosen for the project, not one brand for every home
  • Designed to grow with the house, so you can add rooms and features later
  • Controlled from keypads, touchscreens, remotes, your phone or voice
