A starting framework, not a quote — refined by every Cinergy firm with real benchmarking data. Use the planner below to explore a tailored range.
The Cinergy home technology budget calculator estimates a realistic range for a smart home project based on the overall construction budget, the size of the home, and the level of integration you want. As a rule of thumb, home technology runs about 4% of project cost for essential systems, 8% for an elevated whole-home experience, and 15% or more for a fully bespoke installation covering networking, audio and video, lighting control, motorized shades, security, and climate.
The estimate is a starting framework, not a quote. For an accurate proposal, a Cinergy Certified firm will refine these figures with real benchmarking data for your home. Learn more about how to budget for home technology.
