The “intelligent house” is coming, one piece at a time. You may never have thought you would be able to program your stove to preheat to the correct temperature, cook for a set time, then shut off. Imagine the running around that would save! You might choose to put your dish on the burner, start preheating, and not look at the stove again until cooking is done. We’re not necessarily endorsing this approach. But it could be done!

You also may have thought that such capabilities were expensive. Not any more. Programmability has hit the mainstream in many products, the stove being one example. We can help you get the most out of today’s programmable devices throughout your home. Whether it’s a thermostat, range, TV, or telephone, we can help you understand how it thinks and how to “talk” to it. And this goes for your car too. We’ll show you where the unlikely connections might be, such as finding one models clock settings within the instructions for the audio system. Let us take the mystery out of device programming and banish the flashing “12:00” forever!
