Type of Installation Contractors used for Home Electronics As a relatively new labor category, custom installers rank just behind the more-established fields of security companies and electricians. Totals add up to more than 100 percent because many builders use more than one type of contractor. Source: NAHBRC/CEA

13. How to Integrate? Imperative # 1 An Integrated design team and process - dedicated to the integration notion! Integration should be implemented from inception to completion. The initial design stage is perceived as most critical to the process. The guidance of the System Integrator at this stage is indispensable!

14. What will Dominate our Residence! The future holds much more -integrating building structure - detecting structural failures, corrosion, bursting pipes, etc………..
