Why Have a Home Automation System?

Extra Security

Have you gone to bed and left your garage doors open? A home management system can be programmed to automatically close your garage doors when left open and the system is “armed” and in the “night” mode.

Fire Safety

If you have a fire, The Omni U.L. Listed and CP-01 compliant home management system will shut your HVAC off. This helps prevent smoke and fire from being circulated in the building as well as oxygen that is pumping from the unit.

Lighting

Do you take a summer vacation or winter elsewhere? Automated lighting controls will give the home a “lived in” look while the home is unoccupied as the system randomly turns on and off lights from evening to evening. You will also never again have to come home to a “dark” house.

Remote Access

Have you ever left your home and wondered if you remembered to turn off lights, set the alarm, or close the garage doors? Rest assured that a home management system can help by giving you remote access through your mobile phone, iPad or your computer.

Smart Codes

If your children come home after school, a home management system can “text” you with a confirmation that your child has arrived safely. It will also give you the ability to track who is arming or disarming the system, as well as allow you to choose who can arm the system and when the user can arm it (i.e. the maid service) . . . all on a daily basis.

Energy Management

By controlling temperature and lighting based on time of day or occupancy, home management systems can reduce energy costs. Studies show that dimming a light by just 10% can save 10% on electricity and double the life of a bulb. You can also automate heating and cooling in your home for maximum efficiency and comfort.
