The Value of Home Automation

Home automation can provide energy management, home comfort, home security and home surveillance.  Each of these features is of benefit to a homeowner but the combination of all of them is a compelling justification for the installation of a system.

Energy Management

Home automation controllers base the use of electricity on your lifestyle and needs.  If you only need a light on in the living room when you are home and it is night, the controller can be programmed to observe that the home is occupied and it is night so it will turn on the light.   If the room is unoccupied for a period of time the system can be set-up to turn off the light.  These simple instructions can reduce electrical usage by up to 5%.  Not a cost justification, but a start.
