From automatic shades, to motorised garden gates, to voice-controlled smart lighting.
What does the smart home do?
Nowadays, the concept of the smart home is appearing in many places. You'll find the term in magazines, advertisements, home improvement stores, forums and other places. There are many manufacturers on the market, ranging from low-cost Far Eastern ranges with shorter lifespans and fewer expansion options, to smart home systems from well-known high-tech global brands. Question: which one to choose? There is a wide enough range to choose from, but the choice of which smart home system to install is far from irrelevant.
What makes my home smart?
You'd never guess how much you can automate in your home or apartment.
What makes up a smart home system?
- First, we need a control centre that connects everything.
- The next important thing is to have a fixed, clear idea of what you want to get out of your home and to find the right and trusted professional to help you tailor your smart home system.
- The third, but not insignificant component, is the multitude of different controls, sensors, tube motors (and I could go on), in other words, the various peripherals that, when connected to that particular control centre, "bring our house to life".
The BECKER smart home has three key features:
- Secure, because the system devices communicate with each other by radio signal.
- Comfortable, thanks to a wealth of useful features and settings.
- Energy savingbecause our house/apartment reacts automatically to environmental changes according to our needs, which also benefits our Friday.
The reliability of the system has been a testimony to its 100 years in the field of shading automation and construction. In our next post, we'll show you what can be integrated into the smart home.
