For many,
home automation is only a thing of dreams, like something in a house owned by
Bill Gates. A misconception that home automation is extremely complex makes
many people apprehensive, thinking that they could never own or use such a
system.
But this
simply isn't true.
The truth
is that home automation systems have the power to simplify everything within
your home and life. For example, homeowners often struggle with technologies
that don’t work together. They hate the numerous remote controls cluttering
coffee tables, and the wires tangled throughout rooms, but they don’t know they
have any other options. Today’s home automation technologies eliminate the
confusion. Completely.
This means
that home automation is essentially ideal for the technically
challenged. Here is an outline of some of the reasons why:
1.
Combined technologies
Many
home automation systems give users the ability to combine many of
their technologies, such as lighting, security, entertainment and temperature
control into one system.
2.
A single, simple point of control
These
combined technologies can be controlled using a single unit. This single point
of control can be a remote or a home computer or iPad, iPhone or smart phone.
This means a control that you already know how to use.
3.
One-touch control
There
is no need to fiddle with devices or cables to change from one mode of
entertainment to another. If the kiddies are playing PS3 and mom and dad want
to start movie night, a push of a button is all that is needed to power on the
TV for movies, close the blinds and dim the lights.
4.
All-room control
Home
automation can be used to control technology in all rooms – so if,
for example, at dinner time the children are listening to music in their own
rooms, mom can simply push a single “Dinner” button and the music will be shut
down and dinner announced.
5.
Control on the road
Home
automation is even ideal for the technically challenged on the road. Leaving
your house with a sitter is no longer a matter of blind faith: using your
control device you can easily check in on your security, seeing which doors are
unlocked or which lights are on etc. If you see a door unlocked, no problem –
just push a button to lock it from wherever you are.
6.
Convenience & comfort
Home
automation systems can be used to control temperature. On a hot day,
remotely adjust your air conditioning from your iPad with the simple touch of
button before you leave work so you come home to a cool house.
7.
Simple setup and maintenance support
The
technically challenged usually have concerns around setup and maintenance of a
system. “Where do we start, what do we need, and what happens if something goes
wrong?” A good team of installers will help you to decide on the right system
for your home, and offer continued support to ensure that you never have any
problems. They are just a call away.
Far
from being something from a movie, home automation is a simple solution to
making everyone’s lives easier, especially the technically
challenged. With the right support from a home automation specialist, it is
possible for anyone and everyone!
