How smart is your home? In 2019, it’s possible your home is smarter than you. Developed to provide energy efficiency, security and a level of comfort, the smart home does it all on command. Control lighting, heating, cooling, appliances, televisions, computers and other security features with smart technology that communicates with each other and could be remotely controlled by using a smart phone or online. Internet connectivity and cloud storage makes all this smart home technology possible by bringing convenience and electronic intelligence right to your fingertips. If you’re technically-challenged, don’t worry – we recommend starting small to go big with technology with three easy technologies to make your home smarter this year.
What If Your Home is Smarter Than You?
Set Smart Temperatures
Most thermostats only look at the temperature in one area (normally the hallway) which makes other rooms too hot or too cold. Technology like ecobee4 or Nest includes room sensors to help manage hot or cold spots. When sensors are placed in the most widely used rooms, the smart gadget can read the temperature, detect occupancy and adjust the temperature so it’s perfect.
Sensing Leaks
Smart leak detection sensors monitor your home’s plumbing with the goal of discovering leaks and malfunctions. They can aid you in preventing damage from water and the growth of mold and mildew within a wall as a result of slow leak.
Open and Shut
If you have ever left home for the entire day or, even worse, been on vacation and suddenly you’re unsure if you left the garage door open – a smart garage door opener offers convenience, improved home security and assurance. Confirm the open or closed status of your garage door with the app on your smartphone as well as open it or close it remotely – this means that, it’s a possibility to be on the other side of the Earth and still control your garage door.
