Welcome back to the Build Show podcast! In this episode, Matt Risinger sits down with Steve Lesem, Chief Operating Officer of Matt's homebuilding company, to dive deep into the world of low voltage wiring and why it's crucial for future-proofing your home for new technologies.

If you're like many homeowners or builders, you might not think much about the wiring in your home beyond the standard electrical setup. However, as Matt and Steve discuss, the world of home technology is rapidly evolving, and having the right wiring infrastructure in place can make a huge difference in your home's functionality and convenience.

Steve, a University of Texas electrical engineering grad with a background in high tech and software, brings a wealth of knowledge to the table. He explains the different types of low voltage wiring, from Cat 6 ethernet cables to speaker wires and everything in between. These low voltage wires are essential for connecting devices like cameras, thermostats, and even washing machines to your home network, enabling seamless operation and communication between devices.

One of the key points Steve and Matt emphasize is the importance of planning ahead. While it may seem like a small detail, the wiring decisions you make during construction can have a big impact on your home's ability to adapt to new technologies in the future. By investing in a well-thought-out wiring infrastructure now, you can save yourself a lot of hassle and expense down the road when you inevitably want to upgrade your home's technology.

So, whether you're building a new home or thinking about upgrading your current one, don't overlook the importance of proper wiring. Tune in to this episode of the Build Show podcast to learn more about how low voltage wiring can future-proof your home for the technologies of tomorrow.
