Smart Home & AV Installation in San Clemente
Ocean-view hillside homes where shade control does the heavy lifting.
Working in San Clemente
San Clemente's defining feature is west-facing glass, and that creates a specific problem: from mid-afternoon onward, the sun comes straight in off the water. Rooms become unusable, screens wash out, and the air conditioning fights a losing battle against solar gain through a wall of windows.
Motorized shade control is the highest-impact system in most homes here, and it's not a matter of open or closed. Shades track the sun's actual path across your specific elevation, holding at partial heights that cut the glare while keeping the view, then rising as the sun drops toward the horizon and the light turns worth watching.
The terrain adds the second layer. Homes stepped down a hillside in Sea Pointe, Talega, and the Southwest neighborhoods need coverage planned vertically, and older Spanish-style construction with thick stucco and lath demands a real survey rather than an assumption about range.

Learn moreMotorized Shades
Shades designed around your home, lowering to cut afternoon glare, rising to restore depth and view, and closing at sunset for privacy. Your house is never too bright or too hot.
Learn moreSecurity Cameras
Camera systems designed around real coverage: approach paths, entry points, and blind spots, with recording you own, viewable from anywhere in the world, and optional face recognition that alerts you when a stranger is on your property.
Learn moreMedia Room Design
A dedicated theater when you want it, and family bonding time when you don't. We engineer these rooms with precision so they work with the lights on, with twelve people in them, and with the sun glaring through the windows, without compromising sound quality.
Learn moreSystem Rescue & Takeover
Maybe you bought a beautiful house with a system nobody wants to support, and the original dealer isn't returning your calls. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. We take these systems over and give them a fresh lease on life, and we always try to fix before we replace.

“I had the pleasure of working with Ashkan on multiple AV installations in the past 10+ years. His team performed a complete update of the media room which includes a multi-screen projection home theater, music server, whole house audio, dedicated 2Ch HiFi system, as well as Crestron automation for AV, lighting & shades. The most recent project is a second HT AV system for the family room/kitchen remodel. It's a complex installation & we're very happy with the job. Ashkan is always professional, responsive & reliable with excellent after sales/installation supports. Highly recommended.”David NgOrange County · Home theater & whole-house audioVerified Google review

Common questions from San Clemente homeowners
Do you install smart home systems in San Clemente?
Yes. San Clemente is part of our regular service area and we work there routinely. On a west-facing ocean view, automated shades cut solar heat gain before it becomes a cooling load. Homeowners consistently tell us it's the system they notice most, every single afternoon. Call (949) 275-1232 or request a free quote and we'll walk the property with you.
Which neighborhoods in San Clemente do you cover?
All of them, including Talega, Sea Pointe Estates, Southwest San Clemente, Rancho San Clemente, and 2 more. If you're just outside the city limits, ask, because we cover the surrounding communities too.
What does a project in San Clemente usually involve?
San Clemente's defining feature is west-facing glass, and that creates a specific problem: from mid-afternoon onward, the sun comes straight in off the water. Rooms become unusable, screens wash out, and the air conditioning fights a losing battle against solar gain through a wall of windows. We start with a free on-site consultation so the proposal reflects your actual property rather than a generic package.
How quickly can you get out to San Clemente?
Usually within a few days for an initial consultation. We're based in Orange County, so we're not driving in from another county. That also means we're around for service after the install, which matters more than most people expect.
