Top 3 Things to Consider When Making Your Home Smarter

June 16, 2020 by admin Leave a Comment

You’re probably using a smartphone to read this article today. But what if your house was smart as well? What will your world look like? As the Internet of Things (IoT) industry rises to revolutionize the world, almost all household appliances can be hooked up to the web and controlled by remote mobile devices. In 2020, consumer spending on IoT-enabled smart home systems hit $115 billion. From your garage to your heating and cooling systems, home automation tools can bring you the possibility of operating your household appliances remotely. Here are the top three ways to use smarter systems in your home.

  1. The design of the building

Before you think about living in a smarter London home, the design of the building is important. It allows you to get things right the first time with regards to where everything goes. Professional architects will know what smart installations to make and how to do it optimally. You can hire architecture firms like Scenario Architecture to design your house or reconfigure its layout. Their expert team of architects delivers light-bathed layouts tailored to suit your needs. 

  1. Make Your Lighting Systems Smart

Light bulbs are becoming smarter every year. Well, many people didn’t see that coming. But since the possibility is already here, why not make the most of smart lighting? Fortunately, a broad range of lighting systems exists in the market. While some bulbs require bridges in order to connect with WiFi routers, others are inherently equipped with WiFi connection. These lamps are usually very easy to install and once fitted, you can control it by downloading the manufacturer’s app onto your smartphone and voila. It saves you so much time going around turning the lights on or off, especially when the kids forget to.

  1. Get Smarter Heating and Cooling Systems

Every home needs thermostats to control the temperature inside. Even though they are cheaper, they come with some disadvantages. Firstly, they require you to actively regulate it, and if you forget, there’s no other way out. They are also not too accurate, and so you might end up spending more money after purchasing them. Smart thermostats, on the other hand, were created to solve some of the problems the manual ones present. For example, a thermostat like Nest can be linked to the web through WiFi routers, so that you can control heat with your smartphone. The advantage here is that it can sense when you are not home and automatically turn off your AC units to conserve energy. The best part is some apps come with voice activation features so you can give your fingers a rest. All you’ll need is an app on your smartphone, and you can enjoy spending ‘fuss-free’ time in your home without moving a muscle.

Many tech innovations are being launched every single day. And one way to benefit from all these is to consider a smart home project to save you money, energy, and reduce manual work.
