1. Pre-Installation
Use this example plan as a model for what installers should expect to receive before arriving on-site. Installers use
this plan to understand what must be installed, how devices should be set up, and what work is expected to be completed
on-site.
What is included in the plan:
Customer and project context. A number to call to contact a Selora Homes Customer Support Engineer. Floor plan scope by floor and room. Selora Homes devices required for the project. Device inventory and install status. Device-to-room mapping. Integration plan for each device. Integration setup requirements needed for install work. Automation requests that affect install-day setup. Dashboard requirements that affect install-day setup. Placement notes and installer notes. Before install day, the plan should clearly tell the installer:
Which home and customer this project belongs to. Which floors and rooms are in scope. Which Selora Homes-provided equipment is assigned to the project. Which devices are assigned to each room. Which devices still need to be installed. Which Home Assistant integration each device or device group should use and what information is needed
from either the customer or installer. What special notes or customer preferences apply. Field Example Customer Jordan and Casey Smith Property 1234 Juniper Ridge Drive Assigned Installer Selora Homes Installer Selora Homes Customer Support Number (888) 555-0142Install Date March 28, 2026
Floor Rooms First Floor Entry, Living Room, Kitchen, Dining Room, Garage Second Floor Primary Bedroom, Primary Bath, Hallway, Laundry Room
The plan should include all Selora Homes-provided hardware required for the project, including the SeloraBox and
any required communication protocol dongles.

The plan should show what is needed for install without storing the secret itself.

Customer prefers final naming by room first, then device type. Keep the SeloraBox and protocol adapters in the first-floor network closet. Do not enable remote access until customer walkthrough is complete. Customer wants mobile remote access setup completed before handoff. Review room-by-room device list. Confirm all required integrations are listed. Note which integrations need customer credentials. Confirm SeloraBox placement location. Flag unclear placement notes before the visit. Next step
