At Air Tech of Humble, we’re here to answer all of your questions about smart home automation, including whether or not it’s worth the money and how you can get started implementing it into your home. Read below to learn more!

What is Smart Home Automation?

Smart home automation involves connecting one or more of your electrical appliances to one source of control. Usually, this control panel will be your phone. When connected to an app on your smartphone, your appliances can be easily controlled while you’re away at work, on a trip or busy with friends.

Have a busy day at the office? You can open and close your blinds with the click of a button to make sure your windows aren’t letting out crucial air or heat. Getting home later than expected? You can lower your thermostat to be at the perfect temperature when you get home for maximum comfort.
Having this innovative technology in your home can have several benefits including:

• Greater comfort
• Better security
• Serious savings
• Energy efficiency

If you don’t know where to start with smart home technology, check out these common examples and their benefits.

Smart Thermostat

Smart thermostats are a great way of ensuring that your home is as energy-efficient as possible. These thermostats connect to wifi and can be controlled by an app. This means that you can control the temperature in your living area without even physically being in your house!

Security Systems

Smart security systems are a way to keep your home safe and secure all from your phone. They usually come with a central control panel, sensors and detectors that work together to monitor the comings and goings in your house.

The benefits of smart security systems are that they can be installed either professionally or DIY depending on how much you’re willing to pay, you can sleep soundly at night knowing your home is protected and breathe easy when you’re away knowing that your house is secure with just a click of a button.

Lights and Blinds

You never have to worry about accidentally leaving a light on again or forgetting to close your blinds before you leave home for work. Smart lights and blinds are a great way to ensure that your home is always operating at maximum energy efficiency.

Smart lights and blinds work with (you guessed it) a smartphone app. Once they are installed, you can use that app to close your blinds or turn off your lights whenever you please.
