What’s the difference between a basic family room with a decent sized flat screentv with average speakers and a truly dedicated home theater? Quite simply, a lot!

With all the technological gadgetry available today your home theater can now rival, and perhaps even compete, with your local megaplex down the street.

Lava Corp specializes in creating custom home theaters that completely immerse you in the theater experience. We will design your space to optimize the sound by using the proper acoustical treatments. The room will then be sized appropriately to optimize sightlines placing the seating in an amphitheatre style and at the proper screen distance.

The electronics will be integrated into the design of the room. So, in other words, you won’t see any dangling cords. At all.

Your choice of seating is up to you, anything from recliners with massage and heat options, or seats styled after those in an actual theater—only much more plush and without the sometimes gooey sticky substances you have to contend with at the local megaplex.

Can you imagine cooking in the kitchen with Bach in the background, while the kids are bopping withBieber fever in the game room, and dad is secretly boogying down to the Beatles by the barbecue? Each audio experience is separate, independent, and most important; everyone can set the volume to their liking. Can this be done?

Yes! Whole house audio systems can do this for you. And more.

Lava Corp’s touch screen key pads make it easy to skip to the next song, change channels, and even program your system to play a designated cd when you wake up in the morning or tune to your favorite radio station when you get home from work.

And, no more clutter; cd players, boom boxes, or any other audio device prone taking up precious space can now be donated to good will. No, this isn’t Star Trek or some futuristic dream. It’s the present day.

Going to the video store to pick-up the latest new release was a time honored tradition for many of us growing up. Now, you can do this at home. With the help of the video design experts at Lava Corp, a complete distributed video library can be accessed by you from any tv in your home.

Why is this cool? When mom wants to watch the latest A&E biopic, dad needs his ESPN, and the kids are clawing for the latest Pixar pic; everyone’s needs can be met. Plus, they’ll be happy.

We’re not kidding

Lava Corp can incorporate your entire movie collection onto a single hard drive, then send it to any video output device in your house that you choose. In addition, Lava Corp uses the latest high quality plasma screens so seeingis believing! You may never rent a dvd again! (but don’t blame us for not getting out!)

Different than a home theater, a media room is a slightly more casual affair. So, why have a media room in your house along with a home theater? Because it can be used as a hub for other activities that a home theater can’t.Think less formal affairs. For example, you can use it to entertain guests in a casual setting. If you have teenagers who like to game, they can use it as the game center headquarters. Or, if dad wants to use it check the news networks or watch the latest NBA game, a media room is the right choice for your family.

You can integrate a media room into an existing room if you don't have one already. A family room, library or basement are good options. The experts at Lava Corp can help you design a plan that includes top of the line lighting, audio, video and home automation products that complement your lifestyle and meet your needs.We can give you options you might not have considered, like traffic flow for larger gatherings, special lighting concerns, or an appropriate refreshment area. (and even procure a mini fridge, if that work!)

Consider all the tasks you do on a typical day. Now, take a second look at how your life would change with the help of an easy to use, simple to handle, and extremely sophisticated home automation technology system.

With one touch, you now can automate and have more control over your lighting, music, security, home entertainment, and computer networking technologies. It should be easy. It should be simple. It should be accessible. And most important, it should be fun!

Lava Corp can design a home automation system for you using the top of the line products and options currently available in the marketplace. A properly designed system should tie everything together so you, the customer, only need one point of contact. Sound simple? Well, it is!

The custom programming options are endless. The only limit is your imagination. Call us today to see what we can do for you!

Can you imagine checking on a napping baby, monitoring the front door for an upcoming delivery, all the while keeping tabs on the kids in the backyard? In two words−you can! Whoever said multi-tasking is obsolete obviously isn't up to speed in the latest surveillance options available in home automation.

Plus, burglars are getting smarter and more desperate these days so the average American is looking at camera surveillance systems as a necessity, rather than just a luxury. If you are going to be away from home for a period of time, how much more comfortable will you feel if you know that someone else is watching? (Including you, by having the ability to check in via your phone, laptop or Ipad.)

With a surveillance system from Lava Corp, all these options are available to you and more. Come visit with one of our experts today to see what kind of system would work best for you!

Did you remember to lock all the doors when you left this morning? Is everything secure at the office? Garage door open still? These questions can wreck havoc on your normal morning routine. Is there a solution without making that return trip home?

Yes. With the security options available today at Lava Corp, making sure the doors are locked, office is secure and garage door is CLOSED is easier than ever. A Lava Corp security system can provide you with a status report of what doors are locked, if the office is secure, and whether or not you drove off this morning forgetting to hit the garage door remote.

The Lava Corp security experts can provide you with a security assessment to give you peace of mind, making your life more enjoyable and helping you to get on with your day. Let us make your life a little easier and stress free. Come on, do it! Call us today.

How often do you come home from work, no one is home, and find yourself stumbling around, running into doors, tripping over toys, and bumping into counters? Not a pleasant experience, as many of us can attest to. With a lighting control system from Lava Corp, these experiences can cease (or at least be delegated to a far distance place in your memory).

Good lighting is an important part of all our lives. Having more lighting control can make your life easier, safer and much more enjoyable. The lighting experts at Lava Corp can setup a system that turns on a specified lighting mode as soon as the garage door begins to lift. Then, the lights can be programmed to turn off a half hour later so you don’t have to trek back to make sure you turned them off (which let's be honest in some houses, could be a serious trek).

So, as you can see, lighting now involves a whole lot more than just a flip of a switch. Come talk with one of our lighting specialists today to see how one of our systems can change your life, today!

Right now, it seems like everything is going green. A green house or green office building is not only energy efficient but is becoming required in some parts of the country.

With the help of an automated system from Lava Corp, you can become green today! Multiple scenarios and options are available to make your home automation system more effective in energy conservation.

For example, your system can be setup to correlate with the time of day, so at night when you go to bed, the thermostat can be programmed to go down, when you wake up in the morning it can come back up. This can be adjusted with the changing of the seasons, an upcoming special event, or returning home after a long absence.

In addition, you can set you motions sensors to automatically turn off lights in unoccupied rooms. Oh, your mother would be proud. As well, lights can be dimmed to reduce energy consumption. With a little creativity, the options are endless.

Come talk with us at LAVA and let us show you how you can go green today!

The concerns that occupy a business today are many. Everyone wants company secrets kept secure, sensitive information prevented from being mishandled, as well as employees kept from roaming about the office complex and loitering too long where they shouldn’t (after all, no one wants the post-it note pile raided too much).

Thus, a properly configured access control system is a critical and fundamental component which can help a business run more effectively. Such a system can encompass several things. You may need to secure multiple locations with several exit/entry points, or need to identify just who is accessing certain parts of your facilities that need to be kept more secure.

Lava can help.

The experts at Lava Corp will analyze your office setup and then suggest the most appropriate equipment to fit your needs. Call us today to see what options are available for you!

You can then concentrate on what’s most important to you—growing your business.

Do you ever feel like the phone system at your home has strikingly similar characteristics to what you experience at the office? Except maybe less professional and involving a lot more drama?

Lava Corp can provide the home owner with the ease of a phone system that not only eliminates excess clutter but can become a sophisticated in-house communication system. Now, who wouldn’t want that?

The phone specialists at Lava Corp can build a phone system for you with many different components. An intercom system will help homeowners speak to visitors at the door before answering it. This is a plus for a busy mom who doesn't have time to deal with a door-to-door salesman.

As well, with intercoms in each room of the house, calling everyone to dinner becomes less troublesome giving those vocal cords a rest. Additional phone options could include baby monitoring, more effective cordless phone usage and a voicemail system for each person living at home.

In addition, if you have an elderly person living with you, several options are available in case they need help, such as an emergency pull cord or panic button that will provide them instance access to emergency services.

So, end the histrionics of trying to get someone to come to the phone and save that voice box in the process by calling us today.

You'll be glad you did.

With smart phones, smart apps, and smart homes, wouldn’t it be nice if we had some smart meetings? Have you ever run to the car and raced across town trying to make every green light for a meeting only to arrive at your destination and find the meeting only took ten minutes? Afterwards, did you feel a little frustrated? Want to kick something? (the tires on your car work well for this)

Teleconferencing services may be your answer. And Lava Corp can help.

With the rising price of gas and travel costs, more businesses are turning to teleconferencing services as an alternative option. Instead of having employees killing time in the car rental line or trying to check email in the airport lounge, now they can take care of those smaller meetings in the office.

The experts at Lava Corp can help you decide which of the latest teleconference technologies is right for you; everything from teleconference call services, video teleconferencing, to web conferencing. Audio teleconferencing has probably been around the longest but the new opportunities for video and the web are very exciting.

So, give us a call today! You’ll start saving money immediately with less time spent at the gas pump and in the security line at the airport. After all, you don’t like the TSA that much, do you?

With the rise of social networking—who isn't Twittering or Facebooking these days, well, don't admit it if you aren't—the need to plan for more extensive type of computer usage with extensive networking capability is needed.

The networking specialists at Lava Corp can help.

You see, a networked home is a happy home. Trust us. Need to share a printer with several computers? Done. How about allowing all the computers to share a single internet connection? Also, done. Or, how about this? Allowing all the separate computers in separate rooms the ability to access the same shared files, such as pictures, music files or individual documents? A bit tricky, well not so much, but still, done!

Lava Corp networking installation experts are experienced in all these types of setups and more. Give us a call so we can show you what we can do today!

In the past, it was difficult to maintain the temperatures in rooms that had periods of time with direct sunlight, and other rooms which never saw the sun.

Well, those days have changed.

With a Lava Corp designed system, specific temperatures can be maintained at your convenience and personal preferences programmed in. If you like it a little cooler in the evening but would like the temperature turned up in the morning; it's all possible now with touch of a button.

When you are away from home for a long period of time, you can keep the temperature lowered, then bringing it back up as you arrive home resulting in considerable savings on your electrical bill.

Now, who wouldn’t want that? Money to be used for something else (like a new home theatre...)

At Lava Corp we work with CEDIA certified installers, custom home builders, interior designers and renovators to provide you, the customer, with a state of the art home automation system.

Our specialists will initially meet with you to discuss your goals and desires in regards to systems and design.

After this consultation, Lava Corp engineers will then draw a comprehensive proposal which includes all the necessary blue prints, Auto Cad drawings, and 3-D renderings of the final project, which will be presented to you.

Once the final proposal has been signed, construction begins. During this period, consultations with you will be made to address any necessary changes or additions. And finally, the system will be finished and your new life can begin!

Don’t delay, call us today!

With all the pressures and strains of the fast paced lifestyle we all live these days, who doesn’t enjoy a good game of golf, either with friends, family, or business associates? It’s a great way to escape, relax, and just take a breather.

While nothing can replace the majesty of an outside golf course, the truth of the matter is it’s becoming a rare commodity. For most of us, being able to just get to a decent course, have all our equipment available, and then have the time to wait in line to play every hole isn’t always an option. Then our game suffers, our anxiety increases, and quite frankly−no one is happy.

Do you want a way to solve this problem? How about the installation of an in-home golf simulator? Now, at home, you can perfect that swing, improve that handicap and start training that inner Palmer, Mickelson, or Tiger (because most of us have one, just admit it).

Some of the options the latest simulators come with include: technology that analyzes your golf swing, actual golf course pictures to take your game to the next level, a target based driving range that allows you to practice just like on an open range with detailed reports to help you improve and, most importantly, during the winter months it’s indoors! No more putting the game aside due to increment weather. Finally, year round tee times have arrived.

Give us a call at Lava Corp today and let us show you the latest golf simulator options. Your next hole in one awaits.

Many of us probably spent much of our lives opening the blinds in the morning to lighten up the house; then closing the blinds in the evening as the sun starts to set. Lots of spinning, lots of pulling, and lots of trying not to get all those strings tangled up and getting super frustrated, all in the effort to make sure the appropriate amount of light is brought into your home. Now, aren't you tired yet just thinking about it?

Well, you can rest easy because motorized shades have arrived! They are one of the most modern and effective window treatments on the market today. So, what can they do for you?

With the use of a remote control device, you can setup your system so your windows are always covered when there is light on your windows. In the morning when the sun comes up, or in the evening as the sun sets, you can you have your blinds open or close automatically.

You can also conserve energy by opening or closing the blinds based on the maximum heating efficiency of your home. (And let’s be honest, it’s a chore and it would be nice to do something else, wouldn’t it?)

Plus, they’re just really cool and will amaze your friends. So call Lava Corp today and we’ll show you what they can do!
