1. Custom Window Treatments
One option a home automation company can help you with is custom window treatments. Motorized shades give you control over how much natural light enters your home. Plus, you can use them as part of a circadian lighting solution: Get more warmth in cooler seasons by automating them to open the windows that are facing the sun at certain times throughout the day, and less in warmer seasons by having them set to automatically lower during peak sun periods.
When it is warmer out, your air conditioner must work harder to keep you cool as heat can easily enter through your windows. You can actually set motorized shades to open or close based on temperature or light sensors.
Smart technology allows you to have complete control over how much or how little natural light you allow into your home. With motorized shades from Lutron, your ability to harness the power of sunlight is right at your fingertips.
As a homeowner or property manager in Hawaii, you can consult PAC to see what shades are best for you and how they address your specific wants and needs. We sell countless varieties like Roman shades and rollers - in nearly every finish you can imagine.
2. Automated Lighting
Another way a home automation company can help you save energy is by introducing you to automated lighting. Automated lighting can be set to timers which prevents them from staying on all day or night. Plus, we can show you many options for smart bulbs that have motion detectors and only turn them on when someone sets them off.
Tools for saving energy such as dimmers help you use just the appropriate amount of light in your home. This both extends bulb life and cuts down on how much electricity you use. Also, when you combine lights with your motorized shades, you will save automatically by raising the shades during sunny hours, reducing the lighting you must utilize.
At PAC, we can help you combine automated lighting with custom window treatments to give you total light control to not only save energy and money but also improve wellness and boost your sense of wellbeing.
