Home Automation Smart homes which have long been portrayed as a popular concept are fast becoming a reality. Today as a result of technological and product developments, integrated lighting, home entertainment, security, heating and cooling systems and motorized window coverings can all be controlled through one network. Automated window coverings provide instant privacy when you want it and allows light to enter as you wish. That means more energy efficiency and better sun protection for your valuable furnishings and carpet - you gain improved control over the interior room enviroment. Window covering automation also makes it much easier to access hard-to-reach windows above a counter, a bathtub or in a high foyer. Use of your automated window coverings is always available at the simple press of a button. Timers, Wind and Sun sensors can also operate your automated window coverings to open and close them at specified times or atmospheric conditions. Frankly speaking, the fact that people are afraid to press “the wrong button”, shows the lack of installer’s professional skills, as they could not due to some reasons, provide a user-friendly system interface…

SM-Automatic and Somfy systems will seemlessly integrate with many popular home automation control systems on the market today. Building a new Home? Make sure it is wired correctly for home automation. Hard to reach and high windows can be pre-wired for motorized window coverings during the construction process. Automated controls can then be added later if needed with no construction tear-ups or costly electrical work. What can Home Automation Really do? Schedule blinds to open in the morning and close in the afternoon to protect furnishings and carpet from fading. Save money by efficiently controlling your a/c and heating, lighting and other power consuming devices. Schedule events: close the garage door at 5 o'clock, turn on the porch light at dusk based on the ever changing time of sunset. Control temperature setting in your pool or spa. Make your house look lived in when you're away with a Vacation Setting. Irrigation control: Let your house remember to water the lawn Manage your home from anywhere, access your home controls via the internet or telephone! Turn the curling iron or coffe pot off from work. Dis-arm and allow access to your home from your cell phone.
