 ATLANTA, GA - February 6, 2009 – The Consumer Electronics Association (CEA®) announced that Link Your House, Inc. was named a finalist for the 2009 Mark of Excellence Awards, presented by CEA’s TechHome Division. CEA’s Mark of Excellence Awards recognizes leading systems integrators for outstanding achievement and innovation in custom home electronics design and installation. 2009 is the third year in a row that Link Your House has been voted a finalist for the award.  Link Your House is being named for innovative use of custom electronics to facilitate the virtues of Universal Design. “Universal Design is typically a consideration when creating an environment for a user with a disability,” says Frank DeFilippis, VP Systems Design for Link Your House. “But every system we install stands to be better if we design to accommodate our client’s lifestyle and ability rather than forcing them to adapt to our system.”
Winners will be recognized at the Mark of Excellence Awards Dinner on Friday, March 13 at the Rosen Center Hotel in conjunction with the tenth annual Electronic House Expo (EHX) Spring 2009, in Orlando, Florida. Each year manufacturers, distributors and systems integrators enter to compete in award categories for this coveted honor. Each of the TechHome Mark of Excellence Awards categories has a four-member judging team comprised of systems integrators, manufacturers, members of the trade press and industry consultants to determine both finalists and winners.
