Are you building a home in Salt Lake City and are in need of new construction smart home wiring? Rely on the residential electrical contractors at Jett Electric. We are licensed, certified and experienced in all types of residential electrical wiring projects.

When you’re building a new home, that’s the perfect time to ensure you have electrical wiring for smart home devices. While it is certainly possible to retrofit a home for automation, it is easier (and less messy) to add new construction smart-home wiring as you are building the home.

This is especially the case for music and speakers. People have gotten used to carrying their speakers from room to room to listen to music, but when you’re building a new home, this isn’t necessary. Our residential electricians can run electrical wiring through the walls and into the ceilings so you can have speakers in every room that you can control with your phone.

Smart home technology that’s easy to add to any home includes automating your doorbell, thermostat, lights and blinds.
Installing a smart doorbell is handy because you can see who is at the door without getting up — just look on your phone. If it’s a solicitor or canvasser, you can stay right in your chair! These smart home doorbells are also handy because they record any activity at your door and send the info to your phone, so you’ll always know when the mail comes or you get that package you’ve been waiting for.

Automating thermostats is a popular smart home function because if you leave the house and forget to adjust the thermostat, you can just do it from your phone. When you’re building a home, your Salt Lake City electrician can work with your HVAC team to install new construction smart home wiring to create zones in your home, so you are not heating or cooling your entire home unnecessarily.

Being able to turn lights on and off with your phone is also handy — you don’t have to get up to turn the light off when you’re all snuggled up in bed. Our residential electricians can wire your home so you can turn lights on and off, dim them or even set a timer to turn them on and off.
Controlling your blinds remotely is also handy. Closing your blinds at certain times of day keeps out the hot Salt Lake City sun, so your energy bills will be lower. This also help prevent fading of furniture and textiles. You can even set your blinds to open at a certain time in the morning to help you wake up.

Whether you’re getting new construction smart home wiring or you are retrofitting your existing Salt Lake City home, our electrical contractors can automate your electrical outlet wiring so you can control whatever is plugged in there, such as a lamp, fan, coffeemaker or bread machine.
