From a Single Rooms to a Large Estate, Control4 Controllers Scale to Your Needs

A smart home controller is essentially your home's brain—and just like people, homes need different types of intelligence for different situations. In Park City, a sleek slopeside condo might need focused control of entertainment and lighting, while a sprawling estate requires sophisticated coordination of everything from whole-home audio to snowmelt systems. Control4's controller lineup meets these varying needs head-on, with options that scale from single-room simplicity to whole-estate orchestration. Each controller is also designed to grow with your needs, making it a future-proof investment in smart control for your Utah mountain home. 

Is Your Smart Home Chaotic or Coherent?

How Control4 Systems Unify Smart Home Control

Have you found yourself juggling multiple apps just to control your smart home? Many Bountiful homeowners start their smart home journey one device at a time—a video doorbell here, some smart bulbs there, maybe a smart thermostat or two, and some Sonos speakers. Before long, you're switching between five different apps just to set up your home for a movie night or entertain friends. Sure, you can use Alexa, Google Home, or Apple Homekit to help. But they all have limitations and concerns. There's a better way: a professional Control4 home control system can unify all these scattered smart devices into one seamlessly integrated experience that's both more powerful and remarkably simpler to use. Let’s discuss why below.

Finally, Smart Home Control That Adapts to Your Life

Smart home control should be exactly that—smart. Yet, how many times have you wished your system could adapt more easily to your changing needs? That's about to change with Control4's new X4 system update, and at Show and Tell AV, we're excited about the additional empowerment it will deliver to Bountiful homeowners. Is this just another interface update? Sure, it is, but beyond that, it will change how you interact with your Control4 system. The new X4 puts your entire home's control within easy reach while making it incredibly simple to customize automations on the fly. Want your spa heated and ready when you pull into the driveway? Or need to adjust your morning routine for the changing Utah seasons? X4 lets you create and fine-tune these automations yourself right from the intuitive new dashboard. Read on for more details. 

What’s the Best Router for Your Smart Home?

The Island Pro Route Brings Enterprise Connectivity to Smart Homes

Who gets excited about a new router? Well, the slightly geeky team at Show and Tell AV does. A few months ago, we told you about the Island Router, which we were pretty excited about then. And now with the new Island Pro Router, we're practically doing cartwheels in our Bountiful showroom. All kidding aside, we are very excited about this new product. Why? Because at $1,299, it may very well be the last router you'll ever need to buy. With six 2.5Gbps copper ports, four 10Gbps fiber ports, and the ability to handle up to 20,000 devices, this isn't just another router—it's a networking powerhouse that happens to be incredibly easy to use.

Think that's overkill? Well, consider this: Two weeks ago, we installed a 10G networking system for a client with a 2,500-square-foot home who just signed up for 2.5Gbps internet. As he put it, "cry once" when making an investment in your home's digital foundation. After all, most of us spend more than this on a new phone every year or two! So, what makes this the best router for smart homes in Utah? Well, that’s what we’re here to tell you!
