Smart & Safe Homes
A smart home is a relatively new concept that continues to capture lots of attention but what exactly does it mean? It’s a home that’s equipped with lighting, heating and electronic devices and/or appliances that can be monitored and managed from anywhere in the world with an internet connection using apps on a mobile or other networked device, such as a smartphone, tablet or laptop.
Count on Safe and Sound Connections to help you transition to a smarter home, providing you with control over every aspect of how your house operates while increasing its safety and accessibility. Perhaps even more importantly, a smart home is a more efficient home, which can lead to substantial energy and maintenance savings.
Smart homes can feature either wireless or hardwired systems or a combination of the two. A wireless home automation system with features such as smart lighting, climate control and security is easier and less expensive to install than a hardwired system, but the latter is more reliable and typically more difficult to hack.
A growing number of homeowners appreciate a home security system because it allows them to monitor comings and goings at their house and alert them to suspicious activity. You can lock doors, arm security systems and monitor cameras from your phone, creating a safer and more secure environment for you and your family, giving you valuable peace of mind.
It’s important to remember that cameras and doorbells in systems like Google Nest communicate wirelessly with the hub but you still need to power the system, just like you do with your home theatre and audio-video systems. Safe and Sound Connections can ensure your security system is powered properly.
SMART LIGHTING
Imagine pulling up to your house in the middle of the night and it’s safely lit to welcome you home. Perhaps you’re entertaining and want to dim the lights to create the perfect ambience or maybe you’ve just crawled into bed and are wondering if you’ve turned off all the lights.
Those are just a few of the countless scenarios you can control with smart lighting – an increasingly popular technology that saves energy and therefore money while offering the added benefits of convenience and increased comfort.
By getting to know our clients and how they live in their homes, Safe and Sound Connections can recommend the automated lighting system right for you and will customize each system to meet your unique needs and wishes.
Safe and Sound Connections is a trusted Lutron dealer, designer, programmer and installer. Lutron invented the dimmer switch, which marked the birth of the lighting control industry. Its commitment to innovation continues. It’s a respected leader in the smart home market and the preferred choice among homeowners who appreciate control and versatility.
Consider, for example, how Lutron’s Caséta wireless smart lighting control system can offer you convenience and energy savings without sacrificing comfort or style:
- Set the lights to turn on or off at a specific time of day or use the sunset tracker to control the lights, even when the season changes and you gain or lose an hour.
- Control one or multiple lights at the same time by creating a scene so you can transform a room from Game Night brightness to Movie Time mood in no time.
- When it’s bedtime, turn off all the lights right from your bed.
- Look like you’re home even when you’re not with the Smart Away feature, which randomly turns your lights on and off throughout the evening to give the illusion that you’re home.
Lutron works with a long list of smart products, including Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and Sonos, and also offers a wide variety of shade control products. When interfacing with security systems, a common application is to make exterior lights flash, thereby alerting neighbors and making it easier for emergency responders to locate the home. Interior lights are typically locked to ‘full on,’ scaring off intruders.
