Let Your Smart Home Prepare for You in Advance
Smart Home Automation Sets the Mood for Every Occasion
According to Insider Intelligence, in 2021, almost 42% of U.S. households used a smart home device. Some of the most popular devices in Salt Lake City, UT, and the nation include speakers, televisions, new-generation gaming consoles, and video doorbells. While these devices offer advanced entertainment and security, a smart home provides much more.
Smart home automation creates a home of comfort, convenience, safety, and enjoyment. A home's many systems, including lighting, climate, security, and entertainment, work together to form an environment in tune with a family’s lifestyle and needs. Here are just a few ways your smart home offers unprecedented ease of living.

Automation and Artificial Intelligence
Intelligent homes equipped with AI learn your preferences and daily routines and respond accordingly. This may mean setting the temperature, turning off the lights, and locking the doors when you retire. It could also mean learning your media preferences when you wake up or return home from work.
Home automation prepares the perfect setting for every occasion, turning the lights to the ideal hue and intensity, streaming the appropriate playlist throughout your home, and raising or lowering the shades, whether you're enjoying dinner, entertaining, or watching Sunday’s games.
Remote Access
Pull up your smart home app on your mobile device when you're away and control your home from anywhere! Did someone forget to turn the lights off or lock the door? One tap, and it’s done. If you receive a notification that someone is at the front door, you can use the same platform to look at your live security camera feed and take the appropriate action. Speak to whoever's there through a two-way intercom and unlock the door for your pet sitter or call the authorities in the event of an ill-intentioned stranger.
A Healthier Environment
There’s nothing quite as beautiful as sunlight streaming into your home. Not only does natural light enhance your home’s environment, but it also reduces energy consumption and increases overall health. When the sun’s rays touch your skin, your body makes Vitamin D. When daylight enters your eyes, it produces serotonin, your “happy” hormone. The problem is that this same light can make it difficult to see computer screens and TVs and damage flooring and fine art. For this reason, many people lower their shades and leave them in one position most of the day.
Smart home automation changes that. Your smart shades raise and lower throughout the day, letting in just enough diffused sunlight. As your window coverings adjust, the lighting dims and brightens, maintaining the right level of light in occupied rooms. In the winter, certain shades rise to let in the sun's warmth. In the summer, they lower to reduce solar heat gain. In addition, we can program the color and intensity of your lights to mimic daylight. This supports your body’s natural 24-hour internal time clock, promoting focused attention during the day and relaxation in the evening.
