Experience Outdoor Dining, Entertaining, and Relaxing in Style

Summer in Dayton, OH, is nothing if not unpredictable. One day, we’re faced with high heat and humidity. The next day, heavy rain and thunderstorms are passing through. Through it all, the beauty of the summer season is undeniable. So, how do we make the most of this changeable and breathtakingly beautiful time of year? 

The answer is outdoor shades

Thanks to today’s technology, these shades create outdoor spaces protected from heat, UV rays, insects, rain, and even hurricanes. At Beacon Audio Video Systems, we partner with Progressive Screens to provide our clients with the best solution on the market. 

Here, we’ll explore how to stay cool this summer while creating a comfortable outdoor space protected from the elements.

A Guide to Integrated Outdoor Entertainment 

Is this your ideal setup? You’re hosting friends on a warm Cincinnati evening. You tap your phone once, and your backyard springs to life: outdoor speakers fill the air with crystal-clear sound, landscape lights set the mood, your outdoor TV fires up for the game, and motorized shades adjust as the sun sets. This is backyard audio-video automation at work.

Most people throw together some basic outdoor gear and call it good. But when you properly integrate smart technology throughout your outdoor space, your Cincinnati backyard becomes the place everyone wants to be.

Home Entertainment at Its Finest

There was a time when you could travel to the local big-box store, pick out a TV or two and a home audio system, and your home entertainment was complete. Times have changed. 

Today, technology is evolving at one of the fastest rates in our history. One minute, you’ve selected the top-of-the-line 4K LED TV, only to find that, a few months later, the premier TVs are now 4K OLED. No, we take that back; now it’s 8K QLED technology. Or is it? 

And that’s where an AV installation company from Cincinnati, OH, comes in. Here, we’ll explore how we help you determine the best AV solutions for your home, ones that you won’t regret a year later. 

Why Your Whole-Home Wi-Fi Struggles During Peak Hours (And How to Fix It)

When Everyone Comes Home, Your Network Gets Overwhelmed

It's 5 PM on a Tuesday. Your teenager is trying to submit an assignment online, the twins are gaming online, your spouse just jumped on an important video call, and you're trying to stream a video of a recipe for dinner. Within minutes, everything grinds to a halt. The video call starts pixelating, homework uploads crawl, and your streaming buffer spins endlessly. Has this happened to you? This isn't about your internet speed package—it's about how your current whole-home Wi-Fi system handles competing demands during peak hours. Most Dayton homeowners experience this "internet rush hour" without realizing their network setup is the real culprit, not their ISP. Let’s break it down.

Never Fumble With Light Switches During Your Next Backyard Party

You're hosting friends for an evening barbecue, and as the sun sets, you realize half your outdoor lights are controlled by switches scattered around the house while others have timers that never seem to work right. You end up making three trips inside just to get the lighting where you want it. Sound familiar? Smart outdoor lighting puts an end to that hassle. With the right system, you can control every light in your Dayton backyard from wherever you are – whether that's your smartphone, a weather-resistant outdoor keypad, or a simple remote. The best part happens when your lighting works seamlessly with everything else in your outdoor space, creating the perfect ambiance for any occasion.
