In the fast-paced electronic age, the once standard way of wiring a home can no longer deliver the performance that homeowners now expect from their televisions, telephones, computers, modems and other modern marvels that give us instant access to information. Developers, however, appear to be moving as fast as the constantly evolving technology and have risen to the challenge of meeting buyers' requests for extensive setups such as home theaters, media rooms and the direct wiring of computers, among others. Among this group is LTS Builders, one of the leading developers of homes in the Poconos. Mollie Ann Grill, head of the interior design staff at LTS, says that the developer provides homebuyers with a variety of choices in advanced wiring options.
Homeowners can choose from different levels of wiring systems when customizing a home.
More sophisticated systems cost several thousands. If you decide to do it afterward, it could double or even triple the cost. In some cases, retrofitting this type of wiring system is impossible. Examples of a high-tech system include multiple phone lines that allow for incoming calls to transfer automatically to a second number if the first line is busy. Conducting conference calls also is simplified through such a system.
