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 compact family home of just over 200 m² near Nadarzyn, outside Warsaw. Despite its moderate size, it is a fully integrated project in which all home installations form one system. The automation controls lighting, heating with a heat pump, mechanical ventilation with heat recovery and window shading. It links solar energy with electric car charging and monitors the tank fill level. The alarm system, video surveillance, multiroom audio, home cinema and computer network are also part of the system. Instead of separate apps for the heat pump, solar inverter, car chargers and alarm, the family uses one interface, and the house can also be controlled by voice and from the car via Android Auto. The project shows that full integration makes sense not only in large residences, but also in an everyday family home. SmartBMS delivered the project end-to-end: design, installation, commissioning, programming and ongoing service.
