From a Single Rooms to a Large Estate, Control4 Controllers Scale to Your Needs
A smart home controller is essentially your home's brain—and just like people, homes need different types of intelligence for different situations. In Park City, a sleek slopeside condo might need focused control of entertainment and lighting, while a sprawling estate requires sophisticated coordination of everything from whole-home audio to snowmelt systems. Control4's controller lineup meets these varying needs head-on, with options that scale from single-room simplicity to whole-estate orchestration. Each controller is also designed to grow with your needs, making it a future-proof investment in smart control for your Utah mountain home.

CORE Lite: Your Entry Into Smart Home Control
Let's start where many Park City homeowners begin—the media room or home theater. Control4's CORE Lite controller might be the entry point to the lineup, but there's nothing basic about its capabilities. Bundled with your choice of Control4's remotes—from the sleek Neeo to the voice-enabled Halo—the CORE Lite transforms how you interact with your entertainment space.
Beyond managing your TV and audio equipment, this compact controller integrates with smart lighting, motorized shades, and climate control. Imagine turning your media room into a perfect movie-watching environment with one tap: the lights dim, shades lower, the temperature adjusts, and your AV system selects the ideal audio settings. The CORE lite makes this level of coordination feel effortless.
Scale It Up: CORE 1 and CORE 3
When your automation needs expand beyond a single room, the CORE 1 and CORE 3 controllers provide more processing power and enhanced capabilities. The CORE 1 fits discreetly behind any TV while coordinating entertainment, lighting, and comfort in multiple spaces. Perfect for large Park City condos or townhomes, it delivers stunning 4K on-screen control and can manage everything from wireless smart locks to thermostats across your home, thanks to built-in support for Zwave and Zigbee wireless protocols that let you integrate a wide range of smart devices. With a built-in high-resolution music server and integrated support for popular streaming services like Spotify, Tidal, and Qobuz, you can enjoy all your music in every room.
But for many Park City residences, especially larger mountain properties, the CORE 3 hits the sweet spot. Think of it as your home's command center—coordinating multiple zones of high-resolution audio, managing comprehensive lighting scenes, and automating climate control across multiple floors. Whether hosting a winter gathering or setting up your home for an extended absence, the CORE 3's processing power ensures every automation runs smoothly and reliably.
Do It All: CORE 5
For Park City's most sophisticated homes, where technology needs to be both powerful and invisible, the CORE 5 controller delivers unmatched capabilities. This is Control4's powerhouse, designed to orchestrate hundreds of smart devices while providing the highest quality audio across multiple zones. Like the other CORE controllers, it has a built-in server for connecting audio/video intercoms between Control4 touchscreens, which is ideal for sprawling homes. OvrC Pro is built-in for advanced remote management, allowing us to monitor your system and network and troubleshoot and fix many issues remotely without a service call.
The CORE 5 excels in stunning mountain homes where everything is connected—from whole-home lighting systems and motorized shades to complex home theaters, pool controls, and heated driveways. With six independent streams of high-resolution audio (plus an additional HDMI audio stream, perfect for TV sound), it can fill every room with pristine sound while simultaneously managing your home's climate, security, and comfort systems.
