GENERAL PLANNING AND
SCHEMATIC SERVICE
Planning and preparation makes the job! It’s an old saying, but it is more true today than ever. Whether you are considering a new-build, an extensive refurbishment, or just a property make-over, it is vital to plan your home automation and control systems from a very early stage. Anyone that has tried to ‘retro-fit’ such systems will know how much more difficult and time consuming this can be. So don’t leave things to chance - start planning today.
When an architect or designer understands the nature of the systems that are going to be installed in your home, he or she can accommodate the necessary utility and equipment spaces, cable ducts and material selections with minimal effort. If these considerations are left until the 1st or 2nd fitting, then the effort and expense can increase by an order of magnitude.
Perhaps one of the best ways to ensure proper planning for home automation systems is to produce detailed wiring and equipment schematics. Alpha Touch provides this as a service and we will consider each room in turn, ultimately producing a full inventory of technical equipment. Once this is done, we will draw up layered wiring and equipment schematics that can be referenced by architects, designers, contractors and tradesmen.
Whilst it may seem obvious, a detailed and structured set of wiring schematics will help ensure that each job is done correctly first time around and does not require expensive and time-consuming re-works. They also ensure that each tradesman works towards a common goal and will provide an early warning if things are going awry.
