Companies MentionedThere’s a lot to absorb when setting up a smart home. That's because the concept of a "smart home" is relatively new, and the term itself is fairly nebulous. Two readers wanted to know the best way to get started. Image credit: Philips "Which systems are good for learning how to install full home smart systems?" AdicommunicationsukAs we explain in our Smart Home Guide, a smart home can be as simple as a set of lights that you can control from your phone. Or it could be a whole home setup in which your lights, thermostat, locks, security cameras, smoke detectors, garage door openers and more are all interconnected and can react in different ways when one of them is triggered. For example, you can have all your lights turn on when your smoke detector starts blaring, or you can have all the lights turn off, the locks lock and your security camera turn on with a single command. MORE: Our Favorite Smart Home Gadgets and SystemsIf you're just getting started, I would recommend getting the Philips Hue White Starter Kit $69 and the Amazon Echo Dot $49. Philips' lights provide one of the least expensive ways to get started and should give you a taste of what you can do. From there, you can connect the lights with the Echo Dot, so you can turn them on or off using Alexa. Image credit: TP LinkIf you want to go further afield, I suggest investing in a smart plug or two; these simply plug into an outlet and connect to your home's Wi Fi network. From there, just plug a lamp, a coffee maker or anything else into the smart plug, and you'll be able to integrate that device into your smart home.

The Scout system works with Alexa, Google Home, Nest, IFTTT, and can be voice controlled, or by using the mobile app. The Scout hub also comes with ZigBee and Z Wave as well. However, Scout isn’t as user friendly as some because you have to use their app for control. The Scout system doesn’t come with a control panel/keypad. You can buy their basic packages, then add on to them as needed. However, if you want to use the automation features, including the app, you will have to pay a monthly subscription fee. If you don’t, you’ll only get the basic package and the web based self monitoring option, which is almost useless without the app. But, the Scout system is suitable for renters and homeowners alike because it’s portable. Nest was originally known for introducing their smart thermostat which was one of the first home automation features available and it’s what led to the rise of home automation making it into what it is today. But, as you know, Nest offers more than just smart thermostats now. They offer plenty of innovative products which can be easily integrated with a wide variety of third party devices.
