Smart home installation for your home in Seville, Spain

What a smart home installation is and what it can do for you

A smart home (domótica in Spanish) is home automation: lights, blinds, awnings, air conditioning, access, sensors and electricity use connected to each other and controlled from your phone, a wall panel or by voice. It is not about filling the house with gadgets, but about the home doing on its own what you repeat every day.

Some examples of what we do in homes in Seville:

• “Leaving home” scene: with a single button every light goes off, the west-facing blinds come down and the air conditioning switches off.
• Automatic blinds and awnings that come down on their own during the sunniest hours of summer and retract with the wind so the awning is not damaged.
• Lights that switch on by themselves in corridors and bathrooms at night, at low intensity.
• Climate controlled remotely: you switch on the air conditioning from your phone half an hour before you get home.
• Phone alerts if there is a water leak, smoke or someone rings the video door entry while you are out.
• Consumption on screen: you see in an app what the home is using at each moment.

Useful if you spend time away from Seville

If you split your year between Spain and another country, or rent out your home for part of it, a smart home installer in Seville solves very practical problems: checking from abroad that the air conditioning is off, lowering the blinds before a heatwave, receiving a leak alert or letting someone in through the video door entry. All of it works from the same app wherever you are.

What we can automate

If you are starting with lighting, see also light fitting installation and downlights installation: we leave them ready to be integrated.

Wired or wireless smart home

There is no best system for every home. We choose according to the stage your home is at and what you want to control:

• Wireless home automation (Zigbee, Z-Wave, wifi, Matter). Installed in the boxes that already exist, with no chasing, by replacing switches and controls with smart models. It is the natural option in a flat that is already lived in and it integrates with Alexa, Google Home or Apple Home.
• Wired KNX home automation. Its own control bus, with actuators in the fuse board and professional programming. It is very reliable and expandable, the standard in high-end homes and buildings, and it should be planned in a new build or a full renovation.
• Mixed systems. The most common in practice: wired where the building work allows it (blinds, fuse board, climate) and wireless for what is added later.

Matter is a common standard that lets equipment from different brands talk to each other, so you do not depend on a single manufacturer.

Smart homes in new builds: the best moment

New-build homes in Seville are handed over with elevated electrification, which includes a circuit provided for home automation, and many developments come with motorised blinds only in the living room. Extending motorisation to the rest of the home, adding scene-based lighting control or integrating the thermostat and the video door entry is much simpler and cheaper before furnishing than with the home lived in.

It is what we suggest to people who have just received the keys in Entrenúcleos (Dos Hermanas), Palmas Altas and Isla Natura, Jardines Hacienda del Rosario in Sevilla Este or the new estates of Tomares, Mairena del Aljarafe and Bormujos. In the penthouses of those developments, a motorised awning with a wind sensor is almost essential. You will find more ideas for new homes in our new-build section.

In villas and detached houses, home automation also brings in irrigation, garden lighting, the pool pump, the gate and the management of the solar panels and the EV charger, to charge when there is spare energy. See solar panels and home EV charger installation.

How we work

1. First conversation. You tell us how you live at home, what bothers you and what you would like to happen on its own. With that and the floor plan, we prepare a proposal.
2. Technical visit. We check the fuse board, the switch boxes, the blind boxes and the wifi coverage.
3. Proposal and fixed quote, with the equipment, the scenes and what can be added later.
4. Installation of controls, motors, actuators, sensors and gateways, with the electrical side done to the regulations.
5. Programming of scenes, schedules and automations, and integration with your voice assistant.
6. Training and fine-tuning. We show you how to use it and come back to adjust whatever is needed after you have lived with it for a few days.

Guide prices in Seville

The total depends on the number of points, the protocol and the equipment you choose. Other rates are on our prices page.

Regulations

Home automation and technical energy management installations in homes are governed by ITC-BT-51 of the Spanish Low Voltage Electrotechnical Regulation. As a quality reference there is also AENOR specification EA0026 for home automation installations, and KNX systems follow standard UNE-EN 50090. Blind and awning motors, smoke detectors and locks have their own product standards, and we choose equipment that meets them. When home automation touches the electrical installation (fuse board, circuits, motors), we do it like any other regulated job.

Smart homes by type of home

• Lived-in flats in Nervión or Los Remedios. Wireless home automation with no building work: smart switches, motorised blinds in the bedrooms and a connected thermostat, with no chasing and no dust. More on Nervión and Los Remedios.
• New homes. A more complete system using the automation circuit, with scenes, blinds throughout and integrated video door entry. More on Dos Hermanas.
• Villas in the Aljarafe and Dos Hermanas. Garden, irrigation, pool, awnings, gate and energy in a single system, with KNX or a mixed system if the house is being renovated. More on Tomares, Mairena del Aljarafe and Bormujos.

If you only want to start with one part, you can, and extend later. All the options are under smart home.
