Smart Home Installation Avondale, Arizona
Performance Audio Video provides smart home installation in Avondale, Arizona, for homes along the I-10 and Loop 303 corridor.
Smart Home Installation Avondale, AZ
Home Network Installation
A reliable network is the foundation for every smart system in your home. In Alamar, Rancho Santa Fe, Garden Lakes, and other master-planned communities, floor plans are larger than a single router can cover, and builder-standard wiring often leaves dead zones in bedrooms, patios, and garages. Performance Audio Video designs and installs structured cabling, enterprise-grade wireless access points, and managed network equipment that give you consistent coverage in every room. If your home is still under construction, we coordinate directly with your builder to run conduit and low-voltage wiring before drywall goes up, saving you money and the headache of retrofit fishing later.
Home Automation and Smart Home Control
Once your network is solid, a unified smart home system brings everything together. Using Control4 and similar platforms, we can bring together lighting, climate, locks, garage and gate openers, pool controls, and Audio Video into one app. You can use your smartphone or wall control to arm the house, adjust the thermostat, and lower the shades with a single “Goodnight” scene. For newer Avondale subdivisions built with family life in mind, this kind of automation makes daily routines simpler and keeps energy use in check.
Automated Shades and Smart Lighting
With more than 300 days of sunshine a year, west-facing windows in Avondale take a beating, especially in summer months when Phoenix-area temperatures can exceed 115°F. Motorized shades on a schedule close automatically during peak afternoon sun, blocking heat gain and UV damage to furniture and flooring. Combined with smart lighting, you can set scenes that adjust throughout the day for a more comfortable home, lower cooling costs, and less manual fiddling with blinds every afternoon.
Security Camera Installation in Avondale
Growing neighborhoods need reliable monitoring. We install high-resolution cameras for entries, driveways, backyards, and pool areas, with remote viewing through your phone so you can check on the house from anywhere. Many Avondale communities, including Garden Lakes, have active HOAs with guidelines on exterior equipment. Our team handles placement and mounting that meet approval requirements while keeping your property protected. We also offer alarm monitoring integration, so cameras, door sensors, and motion detectors work together through one app.
Home Audio, Video, and Outdoor Entertainment
Avondale’s climate makes outdoor living a priority. We design whole-home and outdoor audio systems so music follows you from the kitchen to the patio to the pool. Indoor home theater installations range from a dedicated media room with acoustic treatments to a living room setup with a hidden projector and in-wall speakers. Whether you want background music during a backyard cookout or an immersive movie experience, we handle the design, wiring, and calibration to get the sound and picture right.
EV Charger and Electrical Services
New construction often means modern electrical panels, but adding an EV charger, upgrading to a larger panel, or installing whole-home surge protection still requires licensed work. We install Level 2 EV chargers for convenient overnight charging and handle panel upgrades when your home’s capacity needs to grow. Avondale’s monsoon season brings dust storms that can knock out power, so we also install surge protection and battery backup systems for network racks and AV equipment, keeping your connected home protected if there’s a power issue.
Why Avondale Homeowners Work With Performance Audio Video
For more than 23 years, Performance Audio Video has served homeowners, builders, and contractors across the Greater Phoenix metro. We handle projects of any size, from a single room upgrade to a fully integrated system for a new build. As authorized dealers for many of the industry’s leading brands, we stand behind the equipment we install.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you wire a new Alamar or Garden Lakes home during construction, before drywall goes up?+
Yes. We coordinate directly with builders to run structured cabling, speaker wire, conduit, and low-voltage wiring while the walls are open. This approach is cleaner, faster, and less expensive than retrofitting after construction is complete. Reach out early in your build timeline so we can review plans with your contractor.
My neighborhood has an HOA. Can you handle approvals for outdoor cameras and equipment?+
We work with HOA requirements regularly. Our team can suggest camera placements, equipment colors, and mounting options that meet community guidelines while still covering the areas you need. We provide documentation to support your approval process.
How do you protect outdoor AV and equipment racks from Avondale’s heat and monsoon storms?+
We use outdoor-rated, heat-resistant speakers and enclosures built for Arizona conditions. For indoor equipment racks, we install surge protection and battery backup (UPS) systems to guard against power spikes and outages during dust storms. Proper ventilation and climate-controlled cabinets keep electronics running reliably through summer.
What factors affect the cost of a home automation or AV project?+
The cost for home automation depends on the scope of the system, the number of rooms or zones, the equipment brands you choose, and whether the home is new construction or a retrofit. We provide custom quotes so you know exactly what to expect before work begins.
How long does a typical installation take?+
Timeline varies by project size. A single-room audio install may take a day; a whole-home automation system for new construction may span several weeks, coordinated with your builder’s schedule. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during the planning phase.

Above and Beyond Customer Service
My name is Jill Newton, and I wanted to take a moment to share how wonderful our experience was with Chad, our service technician. Chad was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. During our scheduled visit for a TV issue, we started talking about some other issues we had been experiencing. Chad took the time to check our internet connection, even though it had nothing to do with the reason for his visit. He spent well over an hour testing everything, taking notes, and troubleshooting the issue. As it turned out, our internet speed was slower than it should have been, and Chad had a great recommendation for improving it. Thanks to his suggestion, we ended up purchasing new equipment, which Chad also installed for us. We have worked with Chad before and have always had a great customer service experience. His willingness to go above and beyond, attention to detail, and genuine desire to help really stood out to us. Chad deserves more than a gold star! We truly appreciate his excellent service and would highly recommend him.

A huge thank you to Dylan, Ray, Alex, Paul, Rhonda, and the entire team. Everyone was remarkably friendly, knowledgeable, and respectful of our space. They made the entire setup process seamless and stress-free, taking the time to ensure everything was configured perfectly and easy for us to use. If you are looking for a reliable, highly professional team for your audio, video, and security needs, look no further than PAV. We are so glad to be working with them and cannot recommend them highly enough!

Eight Years Strong
This review is based on eight years of working with PAV. After our house was burned to the ground in a wildfire in Northern California, we moved to Scottsdale and built a new home. PAV did all the wiring, auto shades, audio system, and Control4 system. They went out of their way to make helpful suggestions and completed each project on time and within budget. Everything operated as advertised. All the techs were very courteous and professional. Needless to say, all maintenance and adjustments have been performed by PAV. The front staff are fantastic, namely Rhonda, who is an excellent organizer and extremely personable. Several times when repairs have been done, Marty, the owner, called me to make sure all was okay. They are always available and on time. I only wish all the other vendors were like PAV. I have absolutely no reservations in recommending PAV for all your electrical and audio needs. We are very lucky to have them in the Valley.

A Well-Deserved Thank You
I was inspired to write this after one of your technicians fixed two minor issues with our alarm system. He was very thorough and a pleasure to work with. It got me thinking. You might recall that 12 years ago, during my home renovation, I sent you an email containing disparaging remarks about your employees, which got us off to a rough start. If I never properly apologized back then, I do so now. I was clearly wrong. Over the past 12 years, whenever we've had an issue related to our alarm or entertainment system, your employees have consistently been helpful, professional, and great to work with, both in our home and over the phone. You have clearly built a strong service culture at PAV, which is not always easy to do. My appreciation goes to your employees and the entire organization.

PAV not only pre-wired my entire new 6,500/sf home for audio, video and security but provided and installed the Control 4 system, audio equipment, TV's and security cameras and related equipment.

Trusted for Years
I have worked with PAVAZ in 2 homes for over 16 years, including an elaborate and technically advanced system. Their service is awesome! They know what they are doing for security and Control 4, and their technicians are well trained and conscientious. Even the office staff- Rhonda and Becca, always find a way to get someone out in the event of emergencies, and work with us to develop an agreeable schedule. A very good company with a strong team!
