Digital Living is the Most Trusted Control4 Integrator in Northern California
Lighting Control
Set the mood with Control4 smart lighting scenes programmed to the perfect level every time, in every room. Instead of a wall full of switches and dimmers, you get a handful of named scenes, like Entertaining, Movie Night, Home, or Away, that adjust every light in the room to the right brightness and color temperature with a single tap on the app, a keypad, or a voice command.
Lighting scenes also work together with other Control4 features rather than in isolation. Add in Outdoor Audio, HVAC, or Shades to the same scene, so “Away” also locks the doors, closes the shades, and lowers the temperature, and “Movie Night” dims the living room while pulling down the shades and cueing up the sound system. Scenes can also run automatically on a schedule or when a door sensor, motion detector, or sunset trigger fires, so the right lighting happens without anyone remembering to press a button.
Whole Property Audio
Control4 makes whole home audio simple. Stream Pandora, Spotify, or your own library to every room, indoors and out, and control it all from your phone, an in-wall touch screen, or a keypad by the door. Each zone can play something different, or the whole house and backyard can share the same playlist for a party, all without anyone touching a separate stereo receiver in every room.
As a trusted Control4 dealer in Santa Rosa and throughout Sonoma County, Digital Living designs every audio system around how you actually use your home, whether that’s background music during the day, a dedicated listening room, or an outdoor speaker system for entertaining. Pair whole home audio with lighting scenes so a single “Entertaining” command starts the right playlist and sets the mood at the same time.
Go Mobile
A Control4 mobile app with a subscription gives you secure access to your home from anywhere. Turn lights on or off from across town or across the world, monitor cameras in real time, adjust the temperature before you walk in the door, close the garage, and lock any smart lock, all from your iOS or Android phone, tablet, or Apple Watch.
Climate Control
Easy to use climate control will have you forget about touching the thermostat ever again. Control the heat and air from your phone, TV interface, or any other mobile device. With advanced, automated climate control, your Control4 system, programmed by Digital Living, lets you set schedules by room, time of day, or occupancy, so every part of the house stays comfortable without wasting energy when no one is home.
Control4 climate integration works with the thermostats and HVAC zoning equipment you already have, so you are not locked into a single brand. Pair it with your lighting and shade scenes, and a single Away command can adjust the temperature, close the shades, and turn off unused lights at once, then bring everything back the moment you’re on your way home.
Home Theater
Have Digital Living design and build your dream home theater, then control every bit of it with ease. Dim the lights, close the shades, drop the screen, and power on the projector and receiver all with one “Movie Scene” tap on the Control4 app or a single remote, no juggling four different remotes to get the room ready.
Whether it’s a dedicated theater room or a media wall in the living room, the system integrates with the TV, receiver, and streaming apps you already use, so control it entirely from the Control4 screen interface. You get true theater sound and picture without losing the day to day convenience of one simple interface.
Video Surveillance
Knowing that your home and family are safe is priceless, and with security solutions from Digital Living and Control4, real time monitoring is only a tap away. See who’s at the door from your smartphone before you answer, get notified the moment a smart lock is used or a camera detects motion, and add scheduled lighting that makes the house look occupied and deters would-be burglars while you’re away.
Every camera, doorbell, and lock feeds into the same Control4 app as your lighting and climate, so there’s no separate security app to check. Cameras record locally and to the cloud depending on the plan you choose, and clips are timestamped and easy to pull up if you ever need to review what happened at the door or in the driveway.
Motorized Shades & Blinds
- Lutron,
- Crestron,
- Savant
- PowerShades
Digital Living designs the shade or blind plan around your rooms rather than a one size fits all package, so a west facing living room built for privacy can look completely different from a nursery built for full blackout naps, all controlled from the same Control4 app as your lighting and climate.
What Is Control4?
Control4 is a professionally installed smart home platform that brings lighting, climate, audio, video, security, and shades together into one system, controlled from a single app, an in-wall touch screen, or a handheld remote. Instead of juggling a different app for every brand of light bulb, thermostat, or camera, Control4 runs everything through one operating system, so a single scene, like “Good Night” or “Away,” can act across every category at once.
Because Control4 is installed and programmed by a trained local dealer instead of sold as a do-it-yourself kit, the system is designed around your actual home and daily habits rather than a one-size-fits-all setup. Control4 also works with many of the audio, lighting, lock, and thermostat brands already on the market, so equipment you already own can often be added to the system instead of replaced. Digital Living, the trusted Control4 dealer serving Napa, Sonoma, and Marin counties, handles design, installation, and support for every system from the first walkthrough through years of ownership.
Control4 Smart Home FAQ
How much does a Control4 system cost?
Every Control4 system is priced around the rooms and features you choose, which is why costs vary from home to home. Digital Living packages start at $600 MSRP, and most homeowners start with one room or one feature, like lighting or a home theater, then expand the system over time as their needs and budget allow.
Do I need a subscription to use Control4?
Day to day control inside your home doesn’t require a subscription. A subscription is needed for remote access, the ability to control your home, view cameras, and manage locks from your phone while you’re away, since that requires a secure connection back to the system.
Will Control4 work with the smart home devices I already own?
Often, yes. Control4 integrates with a wide range of established lighting, audio, lock, thermostat, and camera brands, so a walkthrough with Digital Living usually starts by reviewing what you already have and deciding what can be folded into the new system versus what should be upgraded.
Is Control4 only practical for new construction?
No. Control4 is installed in both new builds and existing homes. A retrofit takes more planning around existing wiring and wireless options, but it’s a common project, not a special case.
How is Control4 different from DIY smart home products?
A typical DIY setup means a separate app for every brand, lights in one app, a thermostat in another, cameras in a third. Control4 unifies all of it into a single system and a single app, professionally designed, installed, and supported by a local dealer rather than self-installed and self-troubleshot.
How long does a Control4 installation take?
It depends entirely on scope. A single room, like adding lighting control or a home theater, can often be completed in a day, while a whole-property system across lighting, audio, climate, security, and shades is scheduled over a longer timeline. Digital Living lays out the schedule during the initial consultation.
