Tarzana Electrician & Smart Home Integration

What We See in Tarzana Homes

Tarzana splits cleanly at Ventura Blvd: mid-century homes on level lots to the north, and steeper, larger properties climbing toward Mulholland to the south.

• Ranch homes north of the boulevardMany houses north of Ventura Blvd went up in the post-war decades with modest service and few kitchen circuits. When a family adds central air, an induction range or a home office, we load-test the existing panel and tell you whether a 200A upgrade is actually needed.
• Canyon lots south of VenturaThe hills around Mulholland are mapped by the City of LA as a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, and brush clearance rules apply there. If an insurer is asking about an aging panel or old wiring, we can replace it under an LADBS permit and hand you the finaled paperwork.
• Gated streets off Reseda BlvdReseda Blvd climbs past El Caballero Country Club and the gated Mulholland Park community. Homes there tend to be large, with pool equipment, outdoor kitchens and several HVAC zones, so we plan 400A service, sub-panels and the equipment rack together.
• Reaching the pool and the hillside yardOn a sloped Tarzana lot the backyard may sit well below the house. We run Cat6 down to weatherproof UniFi access points by the pool and patio, and put Protect cameras on the driveway, side yards and gate on that same wired network.
• Smart control in a remodelTarzana kitchens and primary suites from the 1960s and '70s are being opened up all the time. That's the moment to wire Lutron keypads, shade pockets, ceiling speakers and network drops, so a Savant or Control4 system can run lighting, climate and audio from one app.
• LA City permits and LADWPTarzana is a neighborhood of the City of Los Angeles, so LADWP supplies the power and LADBS issues the permits. On a service change we file the permit, meet the inspector and line up the LADWP disconnect and reconnect for you.
