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

Le commanditaire est une personnalité politique importante au Congo qui a choisi de travailler avec Prelude pour notre expertise multi-techniques. Le client attendait un standing luxueux avec une gestion complète des nombreux luminaires et stores et, surtout, une bidirectionnalité complète audio et vidéo. Quant à la vie quotidienne, le confort haut-de-gamme recherché impliquait également le défi particulier de faire face aux fortes chaleurs d'Afrique Centrale. Outre l'image de standing qui s'impose dans ce type de résidence, il était très important pour le client que le contrôle des technologies installées soit particulièrement simple d'utilisation, afin que sa prise en main soit aisée tant par lui-même, que par ses invités et son personnel de maison. C'est donc un projet important pour Prelude, tant par sa taille que par le haut niveau qualitatif attendu.
