Buying Guide
Recommended Home Technology for Orange County Homes
We’re often asked what products we recommend and install.
This guide is a starting point — not a requirement. ClearWave Home Tech is equipment-agnostic, and you’re always free to choose what works best for your home. These recommendations reflect products we’re comfortable installing, supporting, and standing behind in non-destructive home environments.
How to Use This Guide
• Choose products that match how you actually use your home
• Simpler systems are often more reliable than complex ones
• If you already own equipment, we’re happy to work with it
