Outdoor Living

Don’t just think outside the box, live outside the box.

Outdoor Entertainment

It’s finally beautiful outside, and you’ve invited family and friends over for a BBQ. Why not watch sports, dine, then extend the fun and wind down the evening with great music and a dip in the pool or hot tub? Add an outdoor audio system, weather-proof TV, and landscape lighting to make your home or cottage the perfect entertaining space to retreat to after a long day.

YOU ASK, WE ANSWER

    Here are some of the most popular Smart Home Automation features: Motorized Shades and Blinds Automated Lighting Security Cameras and Surveillance Systems Smart Thermostat Climate Control Devices Whole Home Audio Systems Motorized Hidden Screens + TVs Dedicated Home Theatre Room Controls Weatherproof Outdoor Landscape Lighting Weatherproof Outdoor Audio Systems
  • I want to automate my whole home. Where do I start?
    Whether you are starting a new build project or renovating, it’s important to create a plan for structured low-voltage wiring in the early stages of your design process. Structured low voltage wiring is essential for a stable Wi-Fi network, audio systems & video controls, security and surveillance cameras and smart home automation system controls. When we build a custom rack system for whole home automation, we are also forward thinking, providing you a home network that can adapt over time, supporting additions and upgrades in the future.
  • How do I automate my shades and lighting?
    It's now become quite standard in a Toronto or GTA, new build or renovation project to integrate automated lighting and shades into a custom smart home system. Lighting and shade controls can be used from an app on a smart device, a wall keypad or remote. In some homes, depending on wall space and design, we can offer multiple options. Lutron, offers hard wired and retro-fit solutions for automated lighting and motorized blinds. Lutron systems communicate seamlessly together for precision control, reliability and a user friendly experience. So even if walls are up in your finished home, we still have the ability to create a personalized smart system to adjust your lights and shades at certain times of the day or night, whether it's for comfort, privacy or entertaining.
  • How do I control the features of my home automation system?
    You can control all of your home systems with one reliable user-friendly mobile device including personalized programs for audio, video, lighting, air conditioning, heating, shades, security and CCTV. You can also have dedicated buttons on your wall keypad that combine features for specific usage of a room like your gym, home office, or Muskoka Room.

Pedro is solid. Working with him is very comfortable and easy. More importantly, he made our Lutron system make sense, solved all of the product issues and helped us to get the most out of it.TIP: Listen to him and take his advice. His knowledge and experience run deep. In other words, he has answers to questions you haven't even thought of

Pedro was absolutely awesome! I called for some automation work at my property and within hours he was at my home. The most impressive part of the entire process is he finished the job the same day I called. You just can’t beat that level of service. I would highly recommend Pedro to anyone looking for home automation

IQ Automation/Pedro has done a handful of projects in our home over the last MANY years. We have never been disappointed. He’s always responded in a timely manner, troubleshooted our needs within our budget and is very personable. Everything we have installed is good quality and easy to use. Pedro explained all the tech clearly (I am not tech savvy) from the sound system in our Family Room to the Nest in the Hallway, system in the Basement and system in the Primary Bedroom to Security Cameras. One of the things I love most about how he works is his focus ; Pedro is there to get the job done and then once he finished, he talked me through how everything worked. I also love that IQ Automation only uses great quality products. Nothing has ever needed to be replaced or repaired. I’d highly recommend Pedro & IQ Automation, and have
