How to Make Your Smart Home Even Smarter

There’s little doubt that smart home technology represents the future of residential living. This design trend is a fantastic basis for your custom home. Smart accessories help increase overall home values and convince potential buyers to raise their bids for your property – if and when you’re ready to sell down the road from here. Let’s talk about ways to make your smart home even smarter!

Upgrade Your Circuit Breakers 

More often than not, circuit breakers are placed in the basement or the garage. Ever since they were invented, they haven’t changed very much; smart home technology represents an innovative approach to controlling electrical flow. Some circuit breakers are enabled with Wi-Fi or Ethernet-based Internet access. You can monitor how much energy is coming into your home through special apps accessed from smartphones or tablets. You’ll also be able to tell if you need to turn off a breaker without working with the breaker box. Upgraded circuit breakers can give you up-to-the-second updates on energy usage and how your electricity bill is affected.   

Install Smart Technology-Enabled Thermostats 

Thermostats are essential elements of any home. It doesn’t matter if it is a custom-built smart home or an apartment complex unit. But you stand to benefit from using upgraded thermostats, mainly ones that are equipped with smart technology. Comfortable heating becomes even more important in the fall and winter. That way, you can avoid making everyone too uncomfortable because your home is either too hot or too cold. This technological advancement is beneficial to the environment. Why? You can look at the energy footprint of your new home and change your approach to energy efficiency. 

Configure Intelligent Home Security Systems  

Keeping your family safe gets even easier when your house has smart home features installed. One of the best ways to ensure this is the case is by integrating intelligent home security systems beyond the traditional ones you might have used in the past. Doorbell cameras are becoming increasingly popular. Part of the reason for that is because you can find out who is at the door before you open it. Electronic locks aren’t seen very often on residential properties, but you can be the exception if you choose!
