Smart Home Controls
One neat feature of smart home technology is that it can scale with you. You may not want to integrate five new features at once, so you start small and build. That is perfectly acceptable with smart technology. However, managing five or six different apps to control those features can become cumbersome, so smart home controls are topping our 2023 list of trends.
Smart home controls, like those offered by Crestron and Savant, are the perfect "central command" for your smart home devices. They allow homeowners to operate features from a single app or device. If you're interested in custom home integration, the key to these tools is ensuring each smart device will be compatible. A team of experts like ACS can help advise on this.
Energy Savers
Some homeowners choose smart home devices that will eventually pay them back in energy savings and lower utility bills. As sustainability concerns grow, smart devices are becoming a proven choice. Whether it's a lighting control solution that can ensure lights are turned off or dimmed to save power or a shading solution that helps maintain an inside temperature, energy-saving solutions are becoming increasingly popular.
If considering custom home integration, look for light-dimming technology and thermal sensors. These are tools that can make a considerable impact on your energy-saving goals.
Hidden Technology
Homeowners want the big screen mounted above the fireplace, yet they also wish it was a beautiful work of art. Today's hidden technology features let you have your cake and eat it too. With a growing list of ways TVs and other entertainment features can be hidden when not in use, homeowners that want to maintain a particular interior design can.
Examples are TVs that turn into artwork or mirrors or that work with motorized lifts to disappear into cabinets or the ceiling. But, of course, every home is different, so let's discuss the custom integration options that best suit your situation.
