Carried & Installed
Apple TV and Apple Home · Kansas City.
IntegrateIT supplies and installs Apple TV across the Kansas City metro, in theaters, media rooms, bedrooms and kitchens, and sets up Apple Home so the iPhone works with the rest of the house. Apple is a line we carry and install under distribution. In many of the houses we work on the family already runs on iPhones, so Apple TV is often the source people reach for first, and Apple Home is often the app they want to keep. The first step is a no-cost planning consultation. Phone: (913) 804-7575.
What Apple TV and Apple Home do
Apple TV 4K is Apple’s streaming box, and Apple Home is the app on the iPhone, iPad and Mac that controls smart accessories. What Apple says about them today:
- Apple TV 4K. Apple names its A19 chip, Dolby Vision and HDR10+ picture, Spatial Audio in Dolby Atmos, and a Siri Remote with a touch-enabled clickpad.
- A home hub. Apple says Apple TV 4K is a smart home hub that can automate compatible accessories, and that some Home features need a hub such as Apple TV or HomePod.
- Apple Home. Scenes and automations by time, location or sensor, control by voice through Siri, and support for Matter accessories as well as HomeKit ones.
Where we use Apple TV and Apple Home
Apple TV is the everyday source in a media room, a home theater and the TVs around the house, often fed from the rack through our multi-room video work. Apple Home suits a house that wants the iPhone to be one of its controls, beside a smart home automation system rather than in place of one. Where a house prefers a different streaming box, we also install Roku.
What Apple pairs with in our houses
On Control4 or Crestron, Apple TV is a source: one press on the remote turns the TV on, picks the input and starts Apple TV. Lights, shades and locks can be exposed to Apple Home where the main system supports it, so Siri can run a scene. IntegrateIT is a Control4 Platinum Dealer with a Control4 Certified Showroom, a Lutron Certified Dealer and a Josh.ai dealer, and those systems are where the house keeps its logic. We plan the Wi-Fi and wiring so the hubs stay online, usually on a network from Ubiquiti.
What we check before we install
- Wired where it matters. A network cable to each Apple TV behind a theater or a main TV, rather than Wi-Fi through a cabinet.
- Which hub. Which Apple TV or HomePod will act as the home hub, so automations keep running when phones leave the house.
- One source of truth. Which scenes live in the main control system and which in Apple Home, so the two never fight.
- Accounts. Your Apple ID stays yours. We set up the house with you and never keep your password.
How we supply and install Apple TV
After the no-cost planning consultation we list each room, the TV or projector, and how it will be controlled. We supply the Apple TV units, mount and wire them, add them to the control system and the network, and walk you through Apple Home. Call (913) 804-7575.
After the install
Every Apple job ends with a handover in the room: we show you how it works, test it with you, and record the models, settings and wiring in your project record so the next visit starts from facts rather than guesses. If something stops working, you call us, and the person who answers can see what was installed. Our installation carries a five-year workmanship warranty from the final invoice. Because we also look after the network and the control system around it, the Apple TV is never fixed in isolation from the rest of the house.

Questions
Common questions
Do you install Apple TV and Apple Home in Kansas City?
Yes. IntegrateIT (Overland Park, KS) carries and installs Apple across the Kansas City metro, in theaters, media rooms and every room with a TV. Apple is a line we carry and install under distribution. We plan it at no cost, supply it, install it and hand it over working. Phone: (913) 804-7575.
Can you add Apple TV to a Control4 system?
Yes. Apple TV becomes a source on the Control4 or Crestron remote, so one press turns on the TV and starts it. We also check which parts of the house can appear in Apple Home, so Siri can run the scenes you use most.
Can you install a Apple product I already bought?
Usually, yes. We add it to the network and the control system, set it as a source and test it in each room. Our five-year workmanship warranty covers our installation; the product warranty is Apple’s to state.
Can Apple Home replace a Control4 or Crestron system?
Not in the houses we usually work on. Apple Home is a good app for the iPhone, and in a large house the lighting, shades, audio and video still need a system built and programmed for the house. We set the two up to work side by side.
