Why an Integrator is Vital for Your Lighting Installation

Bring a Professional Early in the Process to Ensure Greater Efficiency and Performance

We see a common theme in a lot of the lighting installations we get asked to do. A homeowner does the natural thing and discusses their lighting design with their architects and designers. A conventional plan gets put into place and construction begins, but then the homeowner realizes that they may want to add some automated features. That is often when there is a conversation about hiring a custom integrator to look at the lighting design and other smart home technologies. The majority of the time, we wish we had been brought into the design process earlier.

Now, we as the custom integrator have to recommend a number of technologies into an existing plan while hoping that the electricians have not done too much of the initial wiring. To fully integrate smart lighting features, we revise the lighting plan based on the smart lighting system the Owners choose. If we get involved after the electrician has started wiring, then the clients’ lighting choices are already significantly limited.

Getting an integrator into the process early will mean a more cohesive design and a lighting installation that meets all of your performance expectations. Below are just some of the reasons that we should be brought in from the start for any projects we work on in Greenwich, CT, or the surrounding area.SEE MORE: Explore the Comfort and Convenience of Motorized Shades by Lutron
