Keep what already works
Aria is designed to connect compatible systems already installed in the home rather than automatically replace them. Compatibility depends on the specific model, software version, available access, system condition, and—in some legacy installations—the original project files.
Often straightforward
Current or well-maintained systems with available administrative access are often the easiest to integrate.
- Lutron Caséta and RadioRA 3
- Sonos
- Supported thermostats
- Supported motorized shades
- Supported locks
- Current networking equipment
Compatibility is confirmed for the specific model and installation before work is quoted.
Requires system review
More complex platforms may integrate well but require a closer review of software versions, access, licensing, programming structure, and available project files.
- Control4
- Crestron Home
- Lutron HomeWorks
- Larger camera systems
- Managed networks
- Mixed-manufacturer installations
Legacy or limited
Older systems, unsupported hardware, unavailable credentials, missing project files, obsolete software, or restricted manufacturer access may limit what can be integrated.
When an existing system cannot be connected responsibly, we say so plainly.
What we check
- Model and generation
- Current software version
- Administrative access
- System condition
- Available project files
- Local and cloud dependencies
- What the homeowner wants to keep
- Lutron
- Sonos
- Control4
- Crestron Home
The purpose of the compatibility review is not to create a replacement proposal. It is to determine what can remain, what can be connected, and where a change is genuinely necessary.
