Smart Home Made Simple: Ditch the Stress, Embrace Automation
It is no secret that smart homes are on the rise and are very popular. There are also many cases where you might feel overwhelmed and stressed because of the many options available when investing in a smart home system. At Connected Living Solutions, we’re dedicated to making every home feel luxurious with smart home systems that provide comfort and convenience in all areas of your home. We are proud to partner with Savant, whose products have been in the world’s most luxurious homes since 2005.
As our world undergoes advancements in technology and connectivity, we’ve enjoyed further conveniences in our lifestyle. A computer in our pocket can access endless information, buy and sell items, run a business, and even order food deliveries to our homes. However, the standard for new home construction has not kept up with these advances. It’s time to apply our technological advancements to our homes. Our homes can manage and conserve resources, tighten security, and interact with every family member with automated tools and systems! Owning home automation technology is becoming increasingly affordable, and soon, homeowners will understand the benefits of living in an automated home.
Enjoy More Free Time
How often do you spend time doing what should be a simple task? For instance, you might find yourself searching for your portable speaker and its charger, scrolling through the music library on your phone, and then connecting your speaker to your phone. Your favorite album can play in seconds with smart home technology. You can request your voice assistant to play your song and music will automatically play on the audio system throughout your home! When your home’s lighting, temperature, and entertainment are automated, you’ll have more time to do what you want.
Have More in Your Wallet
The long-term savings of smart home technology are well worth the initial investment. It’s far more expensive over time to live inefficiently. Your blinds stay up, causing your thermostat to continue running when no one is home, slowly burning into your wallet. With an automation system, you can manage your energy usage by programming your thermostat to shut off and turn on at selected times. Your home will be at a comfortable temperature whenever you and your family are home, and save energy whenever you aren’t, reducing energy bills by up to 30%.
Relax in Total Security
Sometimes, when you settle into bed or drive away from the house, you suddenly remember you left the garage door open, the lights on, or the front door unlocked. With an automated home, it doesn’t matter if you did or didn’t. Most automation systems come with an app that pairs with your cellphone, so you can double-check your system even when you’re away. With the tap of a button, you can shut off all the lights, adjust your temperature, and even lock your doors! Now, you can rest with more peace of mind that your home is safe and secure at all times of the day.
Enjoy More Convenience
Remote controls transformed the entertainment experience but have become a hassle as we search for the correct one between the couch cushions. However, the remote control has changed again; now it’s your voice! You can ask your home to do nearly anything with a home automation system, such as adjusting the shade and brightness of your lights, casting your phone on your television, or turning down your automated shades. As a bonus, you can program all your home systems to your ideal preferences at selected times.
Full Customization
Savant offers flexibility, allowing you to create profiles for your friends, babysitter, housekeeper, and all family members, granting them access to adjust the home to their preferences. Let’s look at what a full day with Savant may look like. At 7 am, your home has warmed a few degrees before you wake up and the shades gently roll up to allow morning light to drift into your room. Your favorite calm song plays softly through the speakers. By 8 am, everyone is out the door and all you need to do is tap “away” to shut off the lights, close the blinds, and optimize your energy settings so you can head out the door quickly. When you arrive home at 5 pm, you’ve already heated your hot tub to unwind before dinner. At 7 pm, you’ve curated the perfect dinner playlist and soft mood lighting that welcomes your guests into your home. When everyone leaves around 10 pm, it’s time to watch your favorite TV show using the “goodnight” scene to set the perfect lights and temperature from the comfort of your bed.
As we enter the bright new age of smart home technology, it’s an exciting time to join the homeowners who have switched to an automated home system. When you develop a connection with your home, it becomes more than a comfortable shelter. It’s a place to unwind, enjoy convenience, and streamline every aspect of your life.
