A smart lighting system lets you control your home\’s lights through apps, voice assistants, schedules, and automations, going well beyond what standard switches can do. Here is how these systems work and what installation involves, from the licensed electricians at EZSMART, serving Toronto and the GTA.
Smart bulbs are simpler to install but require the wall switch to stay on to work via app. Smart switches provide more flexibility, since they work with any bulb and preserve normal switch operation, but installation is more involved and requires compatible wiring, typically including a neutral wire in the switch box.
Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with Electrical Safety Authority standards.
Do I need to rewire my home for smart lighting?
Usually not, though older homes may lack neutral wires in some switch boxes, which limits certain smart switch options.
Can smart lighting work without internet?
Basic operation typically continues locally, though remote and voice control require internet connectivity.
Is smart lighting worth the cost?
It depends on how much you value automation, scheduling, and voice control. Many homeowners find it especially valuable for exterior lighting, safety scenes, and vacation modes.
