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
KNX installation in a new build residential property on the outskirts of Horsham.
The specification called for KNX lighting and heating, all panel building was carried out off site, all mains items were delivered to site ready built into the panels and programmed.
The project included 60 + lighting circuits and under floor heating utilising Jung switches and Theben dimmers and actuators.
The front end uses a Loxone mini-server to present the project in an app and to cater for both logic and timer functions.
Commissioning and subsequent maintenance is achieved by means of remote connection through a Weindzierl 731 IP interface.
