When investing in a smart home system, such as those provided by Control4, Crestron, Lutron, or Savant, it’s easy to become consumed by the dazzling features, the impressive automation, and the sleek, modern appeal. The promise of a seamless, interconnected home environment is indeed alluring, but there’s an often overlooked factor that is critical to your smart home’s long-term success – the service relationship with your integrator.

At Pure Image, with our offices in Vancouver, Whistler, and Victoria, we understand that the finest smart home systems are not just about top-notch technology but also about superior service and aftercare. It’s a principle that sets us apart in the industry, especially when compared to smaller companies that might not have the resources to provide the same level of care.

Why Aftercare Matters

You wouldn’t buy a car and never take it in for an oil change or a tune-up, would you? Similarly, smart home systems, like all electronics, need regular service and maintenance. Firmware updates are needed to patch security vulnerabilities and add new features. Equipment requires routine checks to ensure everything is running smoothly. New products and features are constantly being released, and without the right support, you might miss out on these enhancements that could significantly upgrade your home’s smart capabilities.

There’s a sad but common tale in our industry: a client gets their home fitted by an integrator, only to never hear from them again. The client is left navigating the complex world of smart home technology on their own, dealing with potential issues that could arise and missing out on valuable advancements in technology.

Our Commitment to Exceptional Service

Unlike many in the industry, Pure Image does not believe in a ‘set it and forget it’ approach. We are proud to have a dedicated service team of five professionals available seven days a week. Rather than outsourcing our service to call centers, we handle all customer service needs internally. We believe this not only allows us to provide faster, more effective service but also helps us develop lasting relationships with our clients.

Our industry-leading aftercare ensures that your smart home system remains updated, secure, and performing at its best. We keep you informed about new products and features that could elevate your smart home experience. We want our clients to enjoy their smart home systems not just on the day of installation, but every day thereafter.

The Pure Image Difference

In essence, the best smart home system is one that receives regular service and upgrades, backed by a team that genuinely cares. That’s the Pure Image difference. Our commitment to exceptional service isn’t just about maintaining your system—it’s about ensuring your peace of mind.

When you invest in a smart home system, you’re not just buying a product; you’re entering into a service relationship that should be designed to last as long as your home. At Pure Image, we value this relationship and strive to make it a fulfilling, stress-free experience for each of our clients.

Remember, a smart home is only as good as its integrator. So, when investing in your smart home, consider the service relationship you’re entering into. With Pure Image, rest assured, you’re in good hands.
