In the age of modern technology, there is a wide range of solutions known as smart homes. As a rule, many different types of solutions can be installed in a building, but the most important thing is their correct selection, correct installation and professional programming. The main answer is what users expect from a smart building.
Each of us has different habits, preferences, and habits. According to these recommendations, you can choose solutions for home automation. It may be easier to analyze the available solutions in terms of:
– building security,
– functionality,
– economy,
– comfort.
Comfort + safety
Security systems include an alarm system and a surveillance system. The alarm system protects the house from unnoticed intruders. Cameras allow you to constantly monitor the area around the house, as well as record events that can be played back later.
In the case of IP systems, you can also program detection zones whose violation will lead to the following scenario, such as notifying homeowners, a security company, or triggering an alarm.
These include lighting controls, blinds, shutters, and gates. Lighting control allows you to move around the building without pressing any buttons – properly designed drivers will make the light automatically accompany users.
Automatic blinds and shutters will close the Windows in strong sunlight, as well as completely close them, for example, at night. The smart gate will open when we approach the property or open it remotely.
Comfort + economy
Smart home is also about saving money. Heating and ventilation control systems will automatically warm the house to the set temperature and at a certain time of day, which will significantly reduce costs. It’s the same with air conditioning, which will refresh the interior of the house on hot days before our return.
Comfort systems implement all sorts of scenarios related to freeing us from our responsibilities. At the agreed time, the unit can prepare morning coffee, multimedia equipment will use, for example, music in the rooms.
You can also create different scenarios, such as guests, morning, night silence, where the installed systems will be activated accordingly, for example, when the “guests”scenario is enabled:
On the driveway lights will illuminate the road;
The gate will open while waiting for your friends to arrive;
Your favorite music will sound nice to you and your friends.
The most important thing in automation systems is not to choose the systems yourself – you should hire a professional company that will select solutions so that the systems do not conflict with each other.
The concept of “Smart home” is very broad. On the market, you can find devices of varying degrees of complexity, thanks to which the modernization and automation of your home can be adapted to your needs.
