Home Automation            Smart House Scenarios            How we do it

Home automation integrates all household systems such that they work together in ways you may not have thought possible. Some scenarios:

Exiting Your Home
The system knows what time of day it is, and when darkness occurs.

  Arm interior and perimeter security
  Turn off all lights
 Reduce interior temperature
 Turn off radiant floor heating

When night falls and you are still away;

  Turn on entrance overhead lights
  Randomize interior lights
     (gives the appearance the home is occupied)
