Smart Home Service Plans That Keep Your Austin Home Running Effortlessly


Proactive monitoring, 24/7 remote support and priority on-site care for your smart home system.

Why Ongoing Smart Home Support Matters

A Beautiful System Deserves Thoughtful Care

Every connected home depends on software, firmware and internet service that keep changing after installation day. A service plan means someone is quietly watching over all of it, so small hiccups get handled before they turn into a Friday-night movie that won’t start.

  • Issues Caught Early: Remote monitoring flags problems while they are still small and easy to fix.
  • One Team to Call: No finger-pointing between manufacturers and internet providers. We coordinate it for you.
  • Easy for Everyone at Home: Anyone in the household can reach us, no technical vocabulary required.
  • Local Rapid Support: We’re based in Austin off North Lamar, so when a visit is needed, we’re close by.
  • A Protected Investment: Regular tune-ups keep your system current, secure and reliable for years.

Remote Monitoring, Explained

What We Can See, and What We Can’t

What we keep an eye on:

  • Internet connection status, plus upload and download speeds over time
  • Your network backbone: routers, switches and Wi-Fi access points
  • Automation and lighting processors, such as Control4 and Lutron
  • Many connected amplifiers, streamers and keypads (varies by manufacturer)

What still needs a call from you:

  • Picture or sound quality on a device that otherwise reports as online
  • Errors inside streaming apps, like a Netflix message on a working Apple TV
  • Equipment that isn’t connected to your network
  • And, for now, the dishwasher, the lawn and the dog

Service Plan FAQs Answered by Austin’s Smart Home Team

Do service plans cover replacement hardware?

Plans cover our monitoring, labor and support. Equipment itself is covered by each manufacturer's warranty, and we handle the warranty process for you when something needs replacing.

What happens when my internet goes down?

Monitoring alerts us when your connection drops. If the problem is on the provider's side, plan members get help coordinating with the internet company so you don't have to sit on hold alone.

Can I get a plan if Simple AV didn't install my system?

In many cases, yes. We start with a system assessment to document what's in your home and make sure it's ready for remote monitoring before enrolling it in a plan.

Is there a discount for paying annually?

Yes. Plans billed annually save 10% compared with paying month to month.

Can I change or cancel my plan?

You can move between plans as your home changes. Let us know and we'll adjust your coverage at the next billing cycle.

Which systems can you monitor remotely?

Most modern networking equipment, Control4 and Lutron processors, and many connected audio and video components. Coverage varies by manufacturer, and we'll walk through exactly what's visible in your home during setup.
