Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14848Jul 18, 2019 10:17 pm Manhattan52 Athena Hi Guys, Trying to get my head around the required cabling for double storey (ambassador 36), its all confusing for me, not an expert. How many data points you have? I am thinking to future proof the house. How much is wisdom charging for extra data points than what they offer. Is it Hills Home Hub that wisdom installs? didnt read great reviews about it, and also it is hard to expand in future if you want to. Does wisdom allows to have our own cabling? by a licensed one? Any advise is greatly appreciated. Thanks Wisdom don’t use a Hills Home Hub. Oh good to know, I’ve been going back through paperwork and emails! Don’t remember anyone mentioning it. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14849Jul 19, 2019 10:32 pm Wisdom Customer Portal. For anyone using this? Do you find that it gets updated? We seem to be missing updates from the Site Supervisor that were meant to take place every Thursday. (Majority of times, it never happens). The Wisdome Customer Portal does not seem to get updated either. There's no updated pictures (which is what the customer rep said would happen), etc. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14850Jul 20, 2019 7:40 am Yara Wisdom Customer Portal. For anyone using this?

Like you, our portal has no updates or photos. It must depend on the SS. Maybe site supervisers have too many jobs to be able to update our portals.

Thanks GLO - i saw some pics on a blog and it had the bulkheads at frame stage and i noticed ours didn't have this. Edited: SS just replied and confirmed this will be installed after fit offs ... good to know! Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14855Jul 24, 2019 11:40 am ASJ1981 GLO That's done after cabinet install.

Edited: SS just replied and confirmed this will be installed after fit offs ... good to know! We had some that were done and some that were overlooked (over fridge and buttlers). Just escalated to SS who got them done afterwards but did delay things a little so best to remind them exactly where you expect the bulkheads to be - never assume.

Thank you jqcc0 - i wasn't sure whether it was a "silly" question to ask SS or not. But gut instinct said to ask anyway! He emailed back and confirmed it will be done after fit offs. I am glad i asked for peace of mind and just so it's been flagged! It's so hard to know what's missing or what not if you don't ask questions, isn't it!

It's so hard to know what's missing or what not if you don't ask questions, isn't it! It sure is. As with any industry there is often an assumption that the customer understands the terminology and process, but you will need to do your research, listen to your gut and probably take on the role of Project Manager if there is any chance of keeping to the timeline. Raise any concerns early and often Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14858Jul 24, 2019 4:01 pm Hi all, has any one had provisioning to hard wire (power) WiFi smart video door bell like Ring or Nest. If so what provisioning should i request for. I am hoping to avoid asking for a normal door bell and retro fit the wifi door bell. Re: Building with Wisdom Homes 14859Jul 24, 2019 4:20 pm kingofnowhere Hi all, has any one had provisioning to hard wire (power) WiFi smart video door bell like Ring or Nest. If so what provisioning should i request for. I am hoping to avoid asking for a normal door bell and retro fit the wifi door bell. we couldn't decide what we want to install so we asked for a normal door bell and will swap it out later. The other option is something like Ring Elite which run power over ethernet, so I assume you can just request a data point where you want your door bell located. https://au-en.ring.com/collections/video-doorbells//products/video-doorbell-elite I don't think Nest door bell has POE version.

POE is a nice option let me dig some more. its just i am bit wary of subscription services like Ring which force me to pay for footage thinking of using ones that support local or personal cloud storage like this Netamo (https://www.netatmo.com/en-eu/security/doorbell/specifications) though doesn't support POE or batter needs hardwired power. Other option get the door bell but can't get the door bell approved past my partner Can someone please offer some advice? Im DESPERATE. Because I'm completely and utterly exhausted.
