Centralized Control

Instead of having multiple remotes to control specific devices in your home, with a smart home system, you can control all home automation features from one central hub. Use your smartphone, tablet, remote, or wall panel to take command of any connected technology – because everything is integrated! Centralized control makes living in a smart home more seamless and luxurious. Whether you want to control the lighting, shading, or music system, everything can be adjusted with a single tap of your fingers.

Energy Efficiency

Reducing your home’s energy consumption is easy with home automation. Your HVAC system and your home’s lighting consume a great amount of energy. By syncing your smart lighting and shading system with a smart home system, you effectively reduce energy consumption.

How? For instance, your shades can be programmed to rise during the day to utilize natural sunlight –lighting your home and bringing in warmth in the winter. When the sun goes down, your shades do too, and the lights can turn on automatically. Shading and automated lighting work beautifully together to improve your home’s energy efficiency.

When summer is here, your shades help as well. Lower the motorized shades during the day with a tap on your tablet, and they’ll reflect the sun’s heat away from your windows. They effectively insulate your home, thus, keeping it cooler on hot days. Consequently, your air conditioner will cool your room quickly without consuming excessive energy.

Boosted Security

Add surveillance cameras throughout your home to record and view real-time footage right from your tablet as you rest on the couch or prepare for bed. You can also view footage on your smartphone. Moreover, today’s smart security systems let you access and control your home remotely. If you see a trespasser on your property, you can remotely trigger the security alarm to alert the neighbors or anyone at home. In fact, you can lock the doors, turn on the lights, and speak to an intruder (or a front door guest) from your phone.
