Behind the scenes
What goes into your installation.
We plan the host, connections, everyday controls and recovery 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 platform that someone can maintain
You receive the installation, storage, power, network and recovery details
RadiosAdd only the Zigbee, Thread, Z-Wave or Bluetooth equipment the home actually needs
You receive the coordinator, channel and placement details, including how the mesh was planned
DevicesChoose direct local control, a manufacturer bridge, Matter or a cloud connection for each model
The device list records each model, room, firmware, connection method, available controls and what still works if it goes offline
InterfacesGive each person the right mix of dashboards, Apple Home, Google Home, wall controls and remotes
Everyone can use the everyday controls without needing to understand how the system is administered
RecoverySet up automatic backups, keep a copy elsewhere and test how the system is restored
You receive the backup location, emergency key and clear responsibility for future checks
