Home Automation - The Home of the Future is Now

home automation - Imagine turning on your home air conditioning system out of your office before you leave and so the house will be cool upon your arrival. Think about the convenience of setting the security alarm and turning off all of the house lights from the bed upon retiring for that night. Consider frequent lowering and raising drapes and turning lights on and off in your home while you're away on a break so that it appears as if the house is occupied. Thanks to the explosive development in home automation technology and improving demand for services, what was available simply to the very rich up to now, is now within reach for most any budget.

lighting automation - Home automation is nothing new with most enjoying the convenience of such automation systems as door openers and automated thermostats. What is new with today's "smart homes" is that entire systems can be automated with simple touch panels and controlled from anywhere in the world with internet connection or iPhone. Some of the most popular home automation systems include:

Security: This can be frequently one of the initial regions of home automation for your control and satisfaction it offers. The system may be armed or disarmed and doors could be locked or unlocked from remote locations to allow access if needed. Alarms will automatically notify authorities in case there is intrusion or fire.

Climate control: This is a real money-saver for energy costs going beyond the capabilities of programmable thermostats. It enables for complete control anytime from remote locations to show systems on or off and control the temperature in different areas of the home.

Lighting: Remote lighting control is useful for security and safety and can be automated for both indoor and outdoor lighting.
