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 complete KNX smart home installation, integrating lighting, heating, scene control and a KNX weather station. The property is used for a variety of different functions throughout the year, so flexibility was a key part of the system design. The KNX installation is continually adapted and developed as the use of the property changes. Lighting scenes, heating control and automated functions can be easily modified to suit changing requirements. A major upgrade is planned for late 2026 as the property moves towards short-term rental use. KNX will play an important role in this change, allowing remote monitoring and management of lighting, heating and electrical appliances. Automated functions will ensure services are switched off when the property is unoccupied, reducing unnecessary energy consumption. Guest modes and simple controls will provide an easy experience for visitors, while allowing the owner to remotely monitor and manage the property.
