Behind the scenes
What goes into your installation.
We plan the hardware, connections, everyday controls and backups together. Here’s what each part involves.
Part of the systemWhat we decideWhat you receive
HostChoose Home Assistant Green, a supported appliance, a virtual machine or another setup that’s easy to look after
You get the details of where it runs, its storage, power and network, and how to recover it
RadiosAdd only the Zigbee, Thread, Z-Wave or Bluetooth equipment your home actually needs
You get the coordinator, channel and placement details, so anyone can see how the wireless network was planned
DevicesPick the best connection for each model: direct local control, the brand’s bridge, Matter or the cloud
A simple device list shows each model, its room, firmware, how it connects, what it can do and what still works if it goes offline
Everyday controlsGive each person the right mix of dashboards, Apple Home, Google Home, wall switches and remotes
Everyone can use the home day to day without learning how it works behind the scenes
RecoverySet up automatic backups, keep a copy somewhere else and test that the system can be restored
You get the backup location, the emergency key and a clear plan for who checks it in future
