Revenues in the Home Systems Installation Channel to Exceed $17 Billion in Five Years

    DALLAS, Nov. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Revenues from the home systems
integration/installation channel will increase from $9.8 billion in 2007 to
$17.4 billion in 2012, according to Parks Associates and EH Publishing. The
two research firms will be presenting a summary of their current home
systems research, analysis, and forecasts at a joint briefing at EHX Fall
2007 in Long Beach, Calif., November 8.
    "Consumers are migrating from free-standing electronics to installed
control and entertainment systems," said Bill Ablondi, director, channel
research, Parks Associates. "Adoption of flat-panel displays is a primary
driver for this growth. Consumers want to connect these devices, as well as
their PCs, game consoles, and media servers, into entertainment networks
with Internet access."
    "The growth of this channel represents a huge opportunity for firms
that have innovative technology, a willingness to invest in marketing, and
knowledge of how the home systems channel operates," said Daryl Delano, EH
Publishing's research director. "Our brand study revealed several firms
that have made significant inroads over the past couple of years based on
these success factors."
    Topics at the upcoming EHX briefing will include brand awareness and
business characteristics among security dealers, channel revenues, and an
update on the residential building market, including trends in new
construction, remodeling, and retrofit.
