Convenience
Let's face it; life is full of inconvenience. How
would you like to level the playing field a little bit? How
would you like it if your home made life a little more convenient
for you? Home automation makes that dream a reality.
Consider the following scenarios:
How would you like to be able go to bed and simply push a button that would turn off all the lights, turn off any appliances you might have accidentally left on, adjust your thermostat and water heater for energy savings, turn your electric blanket on, and bring the bathroom light on at 30% just in case you have to get up in the middle of the night and need to see where you’re going?
How would you like wake up in the morning and push a button that
would incrementally bring your bedroom light on so that it would help
you wake up but not blind you, turn your bathroom light on, start your
coffee pot, and energize the receptacle that your iron is plugged into?
How would you like to put your house on a schedule so that you never had to come home to a dark porch or walkway, your house would be ready for you when you got home, and you could enjoy remarkable energy savings with no sacrifice in comfort?
Instead
of worrying about your baby, how would you like to simply change the
channel with your TV remote and see that the baby is still
comfortably sleeping, and know that your house will notify you when
the baby wakes up?
What if the bathroom light could come on when your child walks in and automatically turn off when he leaves?
How great would it be if your family members would never get locked out of the house again, and never again have to worry about lost keys because the house could recognize them and unlock the door?
Wouldn't it be great to be able to enjoy your favorite satellite radio
station while cooking dinner in the kitchen while at the same time, your
spouse can be listening to their favorite song list in the exercise room,
and your daughter can be enjoying her favorite music while relaxing on the
back deck all using one sound system?
All of this is possible with Home Automation.
Having an automated home is like having your own personal valet. The examples given here only scratch the surface of the possibilities that exist with the systems offered by Smart Home Automation.
