Smart home technology is high on the list for homeowners building or remodeling a home or even redoing a living area or an outdoor patio and pool. Control of lights, audio-video systems, shading, and more bring not just convenience but energy efficiency and security benefits as well.  

While some simple smart home features can be addressed with DIY consumer solutions, a truly integrated smart home installation is best left to professionals. They can determine not just what system is best for you now and into the future, but they are also experts in essential infrastructure like cabling, wiring, and networking that will enable your smart home to work fluidly and reliably. 

How do you go about choosing a smart home company for your project in Destin, FL? Keep reading for three critical things to look for in making your decision. 

A few months ago, we undertook a big step in changing and expanding our company's direction, rebranding from Georgia Home Theater to GHT Group. Why the new name? We’re still big on home theater, but the name was only part of what we do now.

GHT Group is all about home technology, with a fast-growing business in the commercial sector as well. We want to be the premier technology partner for residences and companies in Johns Creek and across the metro Atlanta area. And we think, to paraphrase the Carly Simon song, that nobody does it better in Georgia. Whether you are looking for the best brands in audio and video, the top solutions in smart home automation, the latest in home security, and most important of all – top-flight service – GHT Group does it all.

Keep reading for three ways GHT Group is a different smart home company, and why you should turn to us for your technology solutions.

Recently, GHT Group changed its name from Georgia Home Theater. Why? While AV and home theater remain central to our mission, the name did not reflect everything we do in smart technology in both the residential and commercial markets. In the past few years, we have made a significant investment in adding additional smart technology products and services, as well as our 20,000 square foot Marietta showroom, to become the “one-stop” smart home company in the metro Atlanta area.

We are also committing ourselves to partner with designers, architects, and builders to be the smart home company of choice for integrating the latest technology in new and remodeled homes. To that end, we have recently joined the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association to become part of the community of builders and real estate professionals, bringing our expertise in the rapidly changing and expanding smart technology landscape.
