Making Your New Home a Smart Home

Building your new home with smart technology features can be an exciting and informative process. Smart technology is becoming an increasingly common feature in new homes and upgraded pre-existing homes. Having a smart home makes your home more livable, updated, energy-efficient, cost-efficient, valued, safe, and makes daily life for homeowners more convenient. Below are some features that will help turn your new home into a smart home.

Smart Doorbells and Locks

With today’s smart technology, you don’t even have to walk to the door or be home to know when someone is at your home’s entrance. You also never have to worry about remembering if your door is locked, if you have your house key, or be inconvenienced by leaving the comfort of your space to unlock the door for residents and guests. Smart doorbells and locks are relatively easy and inexpensive to install. Smart doorbells and locks come with many cool features while providing homeowners with convenience and an additional layer of safety.

Smart Thermostats

Another smart device commonly installed in new homes is a smart thermostat. Smart thermostats monitor, operate and adjust your home’s heating and cooling systems. They can be customized to your home’s preferred temperature while monitoring your home’s usage, adapting to the surrounding environment in your home, making your new home more energy-efficient.

Smart outlets

Like smart thermostats, smart outlets also help your home in saving energy. Plugged-in electronics consume a lot of power even when you’re not actively using them, resulting in a large amount of wasted energy over time. Smart outlets allow you to control when your outlets and devices consume energy and set adjustments for energy usage that align with your lifestyle and habits. The addition of smart outlets contributes to the energy efficiency of your home.

Touchless Technology

Touchless technology has become increasingly popular throughout the years, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. Nowadays, we’re seeing homes with touchless doorbells, sinks, toilets, lighting systems, soap dispensers, and trashcans. Touchless technology is convenient and creates a healthier environment by diminishing the spread of germs on commonly used surfaces.
