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
This project has resulted in a smart home that intelligently controls lighting, shading, heating, cooling, ventilation, and AV using a KNX bus system. Visualization is facilitated through a ABB Busch-ControlTouch interface, which simplifies control for users. The multiroom audio system utilizes SONOS with Bang & Olufsen speakers, all managed with a single press of a button on the JUNG switch. The GIRA G1 panel allows control of all home systems, CCTV viewing, and use the intercom. The project was implemented with an individual approach to the client’s wishes.
