Device Placement and General Requirements

Use this procedure during on-site device installation before finalizing any device location or mounting decision.

Device Placement Verification

For each device, verify:

• The final location matches the installation plan, project plan, and the customer’s expectations.
• The physical placement supports signal, usability, and safety.
• Mounting and wiring placement follow manufacturer requirements and local building codes.

General Requirements

• When installing powered devices near an outlet, make sure the wires are as hidden and tucked away as possible.
• When installing anything directly to house electrical, follow all NEC guidelines.
• When mounting anything to walls, use a stud or suitable drywall screws.
• Keep all devices, cables, and mounts level, secure, and visually clean.
• Do not block outlets, switches, vents, doors, windows, or required service access.
• Follow manufacturer installation instructions for every device.
• Verify the device has reliable power, signal, and network coverage before finalizing placement.
• Test each device after installation before moving to the next one.
• Follow the device’s initial setup process, including instructing the customer to download and sign up for any service necessary as described in the project’s installation plan.
• Do not leave exposed low-voltage wiring, loose adapters, or unsecured power supplies.
• Make sure battery-powered devices are installed with fresh batteries and correct battery orientation.
• If a placement, wiring condition, or safety issue looks questionable, stop and escalate to a Selora Homes Customer Support Engineer before proceeding.
• Clean up packaging, dust, wire scraps, and install debris before leaving the area.
