I wasn’t originally considering a hoe automation system… I was interested in replacing my thermostat.
The unit required manual adjustment and was nothing more than a plastic dial.
I doubted its accuracy. Most days, I would forget to raise or lower the thermostat before my husband and I headed for labor and the kids left for school. The boiler or A/C unit would then blast all day long. I’d pay to heat or cool an empty home to the ideal temperature. If I managed to adjust the thermostat prior to leaving in the day, my family would return dwelling to an boiling or freezing house. I started looking into smar thermostats with learning capacity… After installation, the unit keeps track of every adjustment over the course of a week and learns the daily schedule. It then creates a personalized program and automatically raises or lowers temperature settings accordingly. As I learn up on smart thermostats, I observed that one of the features was compatibility with a whole-dwelling automation system, and reading up on dwelling automation, I learned that I could incorporate the operation of the thermostat, dehumidifier, lights and all of our smart appliances into a single hub, but plus, I could add in a security system complete with automated locks, window sensors and surveillance cameras. I’d have access to all aspects of the automated system via an app on my iphone. This would allow me to make adjustments and monitor activity whether I was at dwelling or away. I liked the energy saving chances and overall convenience; Because of modern wireless technology, the installation of the dwelling automation system was not damaging or disruptive.
