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

Intecho designed, supplied, installed and commissioned a comprehensive and all-encompassing smart home solution using Control4 and KNX technologies. This Intecho smart home is a perfect example of how we aim to make our smart devices seamlessly blend into the fabric and interior of the building and contribute aesthetically into fantastically designed interiors; the multifunctional Control4 touch screens effortlessly merge into the décor without the need for a surplus of switches for lighting, heating, cooling, security and AV. With our smart devices, you are able to control all of these functions and more, from one single device. The lounge and bar area has a large TV for casual watching, and can also transform into an amazing home cinema. With a single button press, the hidden 4K projector appears and a huge screen rolls down, delivering a first class immersive experience. The fibre optic starscape ceiling really captures the imagination, and is modelled on the actual night sky
