Keep Your Home Safe From Burglars This Season!

You’ve zipped the suitcases, set the thermostat, and tugged the front door once more. With twinkle lights on the block and a calendar full of festivities, it’s easy to believe that a solid deadbolt is enough to secure your home. 

But the holidays also create perfect conditions for break-ins. Thieves look for small clues that a home’s sitting empty: dark windows night after night, delivery boxes stacking up, mail peeking from the box, a quiet driveway, even cheerful vacation posts on social media. A good lock slows someone down, but it doesn’t stop a determined intruder who’s already identified your place as “away for the week.”

This season, think beyond the key. In the next sections, we’ll show how a layered security approach turns your empty house into a challenging target and lets you enjoy that airport latte with true peace of mind. 

Ditch Tangled Cords and Make Your Home Festive and Warm With Just One Touch.

Decorating for the holidays is one of the most joyful parts of the season. From twinkling string lights to cozy candles and glowing wreaths, lighting helps create that magical atmosphere everyone loves. But if you’ve ever wrestled with tangled cords, overloaded outlets, or timers that never quite work right, you know the process isn’t always merry and bright.

Luckily, that’s what smart lighting was created for. With just a tap or a voice command, you can make your home sparkle in all the right ways without the hassle. Here are five ways smart lighting makes holiday decorating easier, safer, and a whole lot more fun.

Work with one expert team, and enjoy lower costs, faster timelines, and better results

Upgrading your home’s smart systems shouldn’t feel like a second job. Between solar bids, battery options, EV charger specs, and all the “smart” gadgets, it’s easy to end up juggling vendors and dropping the ball.

At Summit Technology Group, we bring those moving parts under one roof. Think of solar, storage, EV charging, and even smart home controls working as a single system, planned and installed by one team that knows how each piece affects the next. 

If you’re considering adding smart energy features and solutions to your home, bundling the work can change the experience entirely. Fewer handoffs, cleaner designs, and a home that’s ready for what comes next.

Curious how a bundled approach actually plays out? Let’s dig in.

Stay Powered, Save Money, and Prepare for California’s Fall Season

In California, fall is a time of the year that brings sunny gold afternoons, cooler evenings, and a familiar uptick in wildfires. Along with the beauty of the season come Red Flag Warnings and Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) that can leave homes without electricity. For homeowners, these realities raise an important question: how do you keep your household comfortable and secure when the grid isn’t always reliable? At Summit Technology Group, we have an answer: pairing solar power with battery storage.

In this blog, we’ll look at the seasonal challenges Californians face, explain how PSPS events work, and share why fall is the smartest time to consider solar and storage solutions that keep your home secure and powered throughout the season.
