Before you book smart switches & dimmers
Quick things that save a trip. Tick them off as you go; none of it is required to book.
Choose your platform first
Pick the app or voice system you use, because switches pair best with one family. Mixed systems often need extra hubs.
Photograph the switch box
A photo of the wires inside a switch box helps a pro see if a neutral is present. Turn the breaker off first if you are going to open the plate.
Count switches per light
List which lights have two or more switches. Each three-way pair needs a plan for the second location.
Know your bulbs
A photo or a note of the bulb type and the number of bulbs on each switch helps your pro match the right dimmer to the load.
Download the app ahead of time
Having the app and your Wi-Fi password ready saves time during pairing. Create the account before the visit.
Ask for a walkthrough
Ask the pro to show how the switch behaves if Wi-Fi is down, so the lights still work by hand.
