Top Home Automation and Security related questions

The prices of installing home automation and security systems depends on various factors such as the scope of the installation, the type and brand of smart devices, the location of your household, and your Tasker’s preferred payment approach. 


As a general guide, service providers may choose to charge based on the function of the home automation system. For example, lighting automation can cost between $1,000 and $3,000, while security systems range from $700 to $5,000. Automated thermostats typically cost between $800 and $2,000. To get a precise estimate, request a detailed quote from your Tasker.

Home automation technology is designed to improve daily life. These systems are integrated into home appliances and furnishings, allowing fixtures like lighting, curtains, and thermostats to operate automatically based on your preferences. This enables remote monitoring and management of your home via smartphone or another device, offering you complete control over household equipment regardless of where you are.

It's optional. The tools and equipment required depend on the type of home automation and security service you need. While most smart home companies provide the necessary devices, some services may require third-party applications or controllers, such as your phone or tablet. On the other hand, some Taskers may also request tools like screwdrivers, pliers, wire cutters, and voltage testers for safety purposes. 

Absolutely! Many home automation and security systems can enhance the efficiency and value of existing or older houses. Often, all you need is a stable network connection and a smartphone to access and control your smart home system. If you're concerned about the hassle of rewiring and retrofitting, request your Tasker to install wireless home automation devices that run on batteries.

The duration varies based on the items you want to automate and the scope of the installation. Installing smart lights in a single room might only take a few hours while automating the entire house will take longer. Comprehensive smart home installations, involving nearly every system in your home, typically take one to three weeks. This timeframe can be extended further if the service requires detailed planning and setup by a professional. You can request a more accurate timeline from your Tasker.

Yes! Specify this detail on your Airtasker listing to get in touch with qualified specialists who can integrate your home automation system with your solar panels. This integration ensures that your smart lights, sensors, and other automated devices use minimal energy. For example, you can set automated dishwashers or washing machines to operate only when solar energy is abundant. If you need assistance installing your solar panels, Taskers can help with this as well, as a separate service.

Airtasker prioritizes transparency to help you find the most suitable Tasker for your project. Evaluate a Tasker's qualifications and the quality of their previous work using the platform’s built-in reviews and rating system. This way, you can make an informed decision based on the experiences of other clients.
