Questions that usually block the project before it starts.

casasmooth is a local-first smart home platform that automates lighting, climate, security, energy, shutters, and more. It runs on your own hardware and keeps your data at home.

casasmooth manages lighting, heating, air conditioning, and other energy-intensive systems by automatically adjusting their operation based on real needs and environmental conditions — reducing energy consumption and associated costs.

Yes. casasmooth provides a mobile web app and optional remote access to control and monitor your devices — lighting, security, appliances, and more — from anywhere.

casasmooth integrates alarm systems, surveillance cameras, CO/smoke/temperature detectors, motion and presence sensors, and smart locks — providing real-time alerts via notifications and sirens.

casasmooth supports over 15,000 devices and 2,900+ integrations. Check our store for validated devices, or contact us if you're unsure about a specific product.

casasmooth runs entirely on your local network without requiring an internet connection. No data is sent externally unless you explicitly enable cloud services — and you are always informed about what data is shared.

Wi-Fi, ZigBee, Z-Wave, Thread/Matter, KNX, Modbus, M-Bus, BLE, and internet-based cloud integrations. This ensures compatibility with virtually any smart home device on the market.

The central hub — running on a Raspberry Pi, mini PC, or server depending on your needs — acts as the brain of your smart home, coordinating all connected devices.

Visit our Getting Started page for a step-by-step guide covering hardware selection, protocol choice, and your first installation. You can also contact us for a personalised project analysis.

casasmooth simplifies installation with pre-built automations for common use cases. You add devices, and casasmooth recognises and integrates them. For complex setups, our team provides professional installation and support.

If Hue devices were added via the Hue bridge, they are controlled by the bridge — not ZigBee directly. To use ZigBee, remove devices from the bridge and pair them directly. Note: some older Hue devices may not be ZigBee-compatible.

ZigBee works over short distances, but most devices act as signal routers. Check the network map in Settings → Devices & Services → Zigbee Coordinator → View Network. Moving devices closer or adding intermediate devices improves signal quality.

Yes. Navigate to Settings → Automations & Scenes → Create Automation. We also offer training sessions to help you build personalised automations for your specific needs.

Absolutely. casasmooth is designed to evolve — you can add new devices and integrate emerging technologies through software updates and optional extensions at any time.

casasmooth offers phone support, automatic software updates, and maintenance services. See our offers page for details on support tiers included with each subscription.

Each installation includes an admin account for remote diagnostics. We can troubleshoot and resolve most issues without an on-site visit, provided remote access is configured.

casasmooth uses ZigBee, Z-Wave, and Thread — protocols that emit up to 1,000 times less radiation than mobile phones and Wi-Fi. Your smart home doesn't have to compromise your well-being.
