What is Smart Home Automation ?

Is it a collection of smart devices and the latest technology? Or is it something more? A smart home is your whole house connected into one digital experience that puts you in control and lets you live more and manage less.

Home Automation enables the automatic control of commonly used elements such as lighting, security, temperature, music and other home devices in a manner that is personalized to the needs of each family. Automated homes are referred to as "Smart Homes". Following are the benefits of home automation.

Convenience: An automated home is about the convenience of saving your time and effort by having your home automatically do routine functions such as watering your grass (but only if it has not rained recently) or turning off all lights, setting the thermostat to economy mode and arming the security system when you retire for the night. Its about enjoying home theater time by having the lights dim, curtains close, TV and DVD player turn on and popcorn popper start... all with the touch of just one button.

Security: Home automation is about the security you have knowing that you can look in on your home remotely from anywhere in the world, or that your home will phone you if anything is amiss, or that a fire will alert your home to wake you, shut down the gas and ventilation system and turn on a lighting path for your escape.

Savings: Its about the energy savings you will enjoy by assigning your home the responsibility of regulating the operation of lights, water heater, HVAC system, entertainment components, appliances and irrigation system so these devices are on only when needed. The benefits of an automated home are only limited by your imagination.

Lighting Automation Benefits

A lighting control system enables one-touch control of all lights throughout the house using mood-based scenes which can be created resulting in convenience and elegance. With the touch of a button, you can turn lights on or off, dim lights, control fans and more from anywhere in the house. Eloka designs and installs wired and wireless lighting control systems personalized to the needs of each family. Lighting control systems can be programmed easily based on time of day, motion, security, mood, and many other factors. For example, with a lighting control system you can program your lights to automatically turn on when you enter the house or turn off during nights or when you leave the house. You can program lighting scenes consistent with a relaxing evening, a late night party or a holiday dinner. Lighting control systems do not take away from your ability to control individual lights the way you have always done.

The following are some examples of the benefits of a lighting control system.

Welcome Home: Return to your home that has a pathway of light from the garage to the kitchen providing security and convenience.

Kitchen and Dining Room: Create scenes for the different tasks such as dining, cooking and cleaning.

Master Bedroom: Control zones of lights from the bedside to turn ON and OFF lights outside, downstairs or throughout the home.

Landscape and Garden: Schedule when the garden path lights turn ON and OFF, or combine all the outdoor lights to activate at once for security.

Staircase and Hallways: Ensure safety by turning on lights at appropriate lighting levels throughout the day and night.

Living Room: Add elegance and intimacy. Lighting is one of the most powerful methods Interior Designers use to change moods in a room.

Family Room or Great Room: Select a lighting scene for one person to read a good book, or the entire family to celebrate a birthday party.

Motorized curtains can be of immense value in the following ways

Lighting Moods: Contribute to providing the right blend of natural lighting and indoor lighting; for example, curtains can automatically be opened in the morning to allow light into the home, closed during the day hours to conserve energy, opened in the evening hours to enjoy views or allow for fresh air and then closed again at night for privacy. Automation of curtains makes the opening and closing of curtains convenient and enables home owners to enjoy the benefits of natural lighting.

Energy Savings: Automatic closing of curtains during warm days can keep indoors cool and contribute to energy savings

Preservation of Interiors: Motorized curtains enable protection of expensive interiors by blocking harmful sun's rays during the day time.

Privacy: Motorized curtains can be integrated with home automation systems to automatically close at nights to enable privacy.
