Have you ever dreamed of an automated home?
A home that turns your temperature down when you're away for energy management.
A home with lighting sequences for "good night", "good morning", "romantic", or "entertainment".
A home where your music from the den follows you down the hall and into the kitchen.
A home that can be securely accessed and controlled by you from anywhere in the
world.
HAI can make your dreams of an automated home come to life.

HAI Home Control Systems are the heart of your automated home because they can
coordinate all of the systems in your home to talk to each other.
An HAI home control system adjusts the security, cooling,
heating, and lighting automatically for comfort, convenience, and safety.
Homeowners recognize that an HAI home control system can pay for itself
through energy savings while increasing the value and enjoyment of their home.
The following demonstrates what a home control system can do
(requires flash player to be installed - Show Non-flash Graphic):

Is the system easy to understand and operate?
If you know how to use a basic security system,
you already know how to operate an HAI home
automation system. Even young children can learn
and understand how to use the basic features of
the system. Day-to-day events are controlled with
one button, such as Day, Night or Away; while
more specific activities are menu driven to change
temperature, lights, etc.
HAI systems are so easy to use that they are called
Automation Simplified®.
Can the system be controlled over the telephone or Internet?
All HAI systems can be accessed and controlled
over the telephone, either from within or away
from home, and over the Internet. Check and
adjust lights, temperature, and security from your
phone and/or computer.
Not only can you call to check on
the status of your home over the telephone, but
your system can actually contact you! Program your
system to call you over the phone to inform you
when your children have arrived home from school
or if the alarm has gone off.
We even offer video surveillance
capabilities over the Internet, so you can get a
visual check of your home via your office PC, PDA,
or web-enabled phone. Receive e-mails or text
messages to inform you of what is happening at
home.
HAI Internet software does not require a subscription.
Can the system be easily expanded later if
my needs change?
You can expand and customize your home
automation system now, or at any time in the future.
You can add Touchscreens, remotes, or Whole Home Audio and home theater
controls.

Reliability
HAI uses embedded controller technology in its home
control systems, a technology proven to be reliable
with decades of use. We still have many of our first
generation controllers in use, some of them have been
installed and running continuously since 1988!
Some of our competitors use personal computers,
which have a useful life of 3-5 years. Wouldn’t you like
a system that will last longer than 3 years?
All HAI products will work in a standalone fashion so
they are not dependent on any other products in the
house. If you have a leaky roof that short circuits your
Omni or Lumina controller, everything in the house
will function as normal. For example, light switches
still control the lights and thermostats still control your
heating and cooling system. There is no single part
that can cause an entire system to fail. That is not true
of many of our competitors’ products.
HAI makes sure that all of our products are tested to
the highest industry standards to ensure reliability and
safety. To ensure the highest quality, HAI has products
tested by Underwriters Laboratories (UL), the most
stringent test lab in North America. Many of our
competitors refuse or are unable to meet these strict
requirements.
In addition to meeting UL requirements, HAI
also meets CE requirements. In most cases the
requirements and testing for CE are more difficult,
but HAI goes the extra distance to ensure the highest
quality product available.
