Smart devices work far better on real wire than on borrowed Wi-Fi. OSB does the neutral wires, the CAT6 runs and the switch layout that make a Merrimac smart home reliable instead of frustrating.
“Garage had one outlet and a light on the house circuit. Now it has a sub-panel and I can actually use my tools.”
“Whole-house LED retrofit across our warehouse. Our lighting bill dropped and you can finally read labels on the top rack.”
“The dispatcher actually understood what I was describing on the phone and told me which breaker to shut off before they arrived.”
Nine times out of ten there's no neutral conductor in the switch box — common in older Merrimac homes. We either pull a neutral or fit a switch designed to run without one.
Yes. CAT6, coax and low-voltage runs are part of most smart home jobs we do.
We install hardwired cameras, PoE runs, and doorbell transformers sized for modern video units.
For anything that must not drop — cameras, access points, hubs — wired wins every time. Wireless is fine for lamps and sensors.
That's the ideal moment. Open walls make structured wiring dramatically cheaper, so call before the drywall goes up.
