A home where technology is integrated into every aspect of our lives is no longer science fiction – it’s here and available now. In fact, technology has made such a leap forward that every new build and renovation automatically includes smart technology.
A smart home puts control in your hands and EAV's professional automation team is your one-stop-shop for all home automation needs.

SEE MORELittle has gone through so much change as the way we listen to music. From records to tapes, then CDs and now streaming, we love our music. Fortunately, music can now be shared all over the house in as many or few rooms as desired. And, different musical tastes can be indulged – Beethoven in the bathroom, Barry White in the bedroom, and dance in the lounge. All available at the touch of a button or by a voice command. Take your music outside to the pool, patio or outdoor dining area. EAV supplies quality brands like Triad, KEF, Sonos, Yamaha, Onkyo, JBL and Naim for sound as good as any concert hall.
SEE MOREEveryone watches media differently. Some on their smartphone or tablet, others like to sit together in the lounge, still others prefer separate screens in different rooms. However you watch TV, streaming media gives you the content you want, where you want it, when you want it. Media rooms and home theatre TVs or projectors are hugely popular with those who like large screens or watching in company. For those who prefer a discreet look, motorised brackets can hide the TV behind doors or in a wall recess. At EAV we can install a system that gives you Sky, Freeview and a multitude of stored and streaming services.
SEE MORETechnology is changing so fast it’s difficult for most of us to keep up. Most recently we’ve seen the arrival of voice command systems like Alexa and Google Home. Cars already tell their mechanics what’s wrong with them and soon our fridges will tell us what groceries are running low.
Already, you can come home to a warm house with heaters on, curtains or blinds drawn, and music wafting through each room.
Lights can be turned up or down at the touch of a button or a voice command.
The home theatre system can automatically play your favourite show when it’s time to relax while your electric car is charging in its electronically controlled garage.
Outside, lights can turn on when they sense someone is nearby or light up as you move along the path. The pool can glow a gorgeous blue when guests visit and your favourite bands can gently serenade you from hidden speakers as you sip cocktails in the outdoor dining area.
From pizza ovens to fancy BBQs, Kiwis enjoy an unparalleled outdoor lifestyle, made possible by techology.
But not just any off-the-shelf technology. In order for different devices to talk to each other and to listen to you, you need high quality, fit-for-purpose components that will create a truly connected home. EAV recommends and installs only the best brands that we know will give you outstanding performance now and for years to come.
If a lifestyle like this is your dream – turn it into reality with EAV.
