Detailed Description

Energy Efficiency

The usage of automated functions already save energy in every installation. Especially the usage of KNX has a lot of potential for further energy savings, which can contribute to a better environmental footprint. Be extending KNX to more functions and applications, energy savings of up to 60% can be realised. Thanks to the flexibility of KNX, these functions can easily be implemented in this installation

Innovation

Smart homes and buildings are always an upgrade in comparison to a conventional installation. Not only automated functions and a higher level of comfort contribute to a higher living standard, but also the possibility to be ready for coming innovations. Thanks to the usage of KNX, the door has been opened to integrate new innovative solutions, using the worldwide STANDARD for home and building control.

Customers Description

A KNX-based project for client with reduced mobility caused by an accident that had the serious consequence of a chronic spinal cord injury. The main goal is to make life for him and his family a little easier. The user can see who is ringing the doorbell from the smartphone and open the door, without having to physically go to the door. It also has an access control that allows you to enter the house without having to take out the keys. KNX push-buttons allow a clear display of functions through custom icons. Lights, blinds, music, everything at his fingertips.
