Home System Integration

Why is home system integration necessary? Today’s large, custom homes feature complex floor plans and sophisticated electrical systems that makes it all but impossible to conveniently control the many sub systems within a home from multiple access points. The sheer size of some homes precludes the convenience that smaller homes offer of having all controls located in the kitchen or living room.
