How does Alpine's climate affect this service?

Alpine is mountain rural country at 2,000 ft elevation with extreme fire-risk exposure (2003 Cedar Fire burn zone). Standby generator install, dual-fuel HVAC dedicated circuits, well-pump infrastructure, and full rural-property scope including barns, stables, and outbuildings are core scope. East County smart-home wiring mostly handles single-room automation projects and Cat6 drops for home offices.

Why won't my smart switch work?

Almost always because the box doesn't have a neutral wire. Older homes wired switches with only the hot and switched conductors. Smart switches need constant power to run their radio. We can pull a neutral, swap to a smart bulb solution, or use a Lutron Caseta switch that works without a neutral. We pick per box.

Should I run Cat6 if I have great Wi-Fi?

If your Wi-Fi is great everywhere, no. If you have dead zones, want guaranteed bandwidth for a home office, or want to add wired access points to fix coverage, yes. Cat6 outperforms wireless for video conferencing, large file transfers, and gaming. The pros we send run it neatly and terminate it cleanly.
