CARLSBAD, Calif., January 13, 2021 — Nortek Control announced today that its Builder Services Program has been recognized as Best Education or Support Program for 2021 by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) and has received a Mark of Excellence Award from the organization. In a separate announcement, Nortek Control shared that the 2GIG^® EDGE Security Panel has been awarded a Mark of Excellence Award from CTA and acknowledged as the 2021 Security and Surveillance Product of the Year.

One of the technology industry’s most inspired and comprehensive support programs, the Nortek Control Builder and Integrator Services Program is designed to provide all the tools, marketing, products, staff, support and education to help integrators and builders connect, collaborate and provide homeowners the ideal integrated smart home system and technologies for their residence across the US, Canada and beyond.  This support program includes a combination of online, live and physical components to help both builders and dealers excel. Some of the program pillars are co-branded marketing collateral, videos, education, event support, products and a dedicated team designed to help all parties make it easier to share the home technology benefits with homebuyers, and to make it simple for them to understand and purchase the right smart home automation package.

“To be singled out for delivering the industry’s most comprehensive smart home technology support is a great honor from the industry’s most knowledgeable panel of CTA judges. This award is the result of our exceptional team’s dedication to helping the integrator and builder community take ownership of this important category and providing them with all the tools that are vital to success in offering smart home solutions to their buyers,” said Bret Jacob, Director of Builder Services for Nortek Control. “Our team is constantly striving to bring our people and products together in ways that enhance and serve the building industry’s ever-evolving needs.”
