Tailor Your Climate Control
Most of our energy bills can be attributed to heating and cooling. Traditional thermostats often lead to energy waste because they maintain a constant temperature regardless of your needs for the day. With a smart thermostat from ACS, you can share your habits and set schedules so the temperature will adjust to a more energy-efficient climate while you’re away. When you come home, it will adjust before you enter the driveway to ensure optimal comfort when you can enjoy it. The result is energy usage customized to your lifestyle that saves you money on monthly bills and reduces your carbon footprint.
Smart Lighting Solutions
Did you know lighting can be a silent energy waste? You’d be surprised to see how much energy is burned when you leave the lights on all night. But an Audio Command Systems smart lighting system can help you address this issue. Rather than leaving a light on for hours, use a motion sensor to detect when a room is empty and turn off lights automatically. Also, using dimmable LEDs and settings that adjust to the time of day, smart lighting can provide only the required amount of light without waste, leading to substantial energy savings over time.
The Automated Shade Advantage
In sunny LA, you have a unique opportunity to increase your energy savings by using motorized shades. ACS can help you program your shades to open and close with the sun’s schedule, maximizing natural light and reducing the need for energy-draining artificial lighting. In the warmer months, the shades can help minimize direct sunlight, helping maintain a cooler temperature inside without overworking your air conditioning.
The Bigger Picture
Beyond energy savings, ACS smart home integration offers Los Angeles, CA, homeowners an opportunity to contribute to broader environmental solutions. As the city works to overcome energy shortages and brownouts, every household that adopts efficient practices can play a small part in reducing the overall demand on the power grid.
As we envision the future, it's clear that smart home integration will play an important role. By combining comfort with efficiency through devices like smart thermostats, smart lighting, and motorized shades, Audio Command Systems is helping homeowners experience the benefits of reduced energy bills while helping the planet.
