Everyday independence, with a dependable foundation.
Mark Litynski’s home needed to offer convenient control in a rural setting where conventional cable and DSL were unavailable. The family’s everyday experience depended on careful planning for connectivity and power as well as for the controls they would use.
ITAM coordinated lighting, shades, door locks, temperature, cameras and entertainment through ELAN. Tablets, remotes and wall controls put those functions within reach, while satellite connectivity served the property.
Power conditioning and backup power supported the home through interruptions and demanding Minnesota winters. The work combined the visible convenience of a useful interface with the less visible systems that helped it remain dependable.
