Why Automate?

Automation can help you control everything in your home home at the touch of a button. There are lots of good reasons to update your home with smart technologies.

  • You’ll save money.
  • Energy efficiency is a no-brainer.
  • Your home will be more comfortable, secure and easy to manage.
  • Homebuyers are looking for smart features.

 

Remote Control

With the right home automation you’ll be able to control the lights, cameras and heat in your home:

  • from your laptop;
  • on your phone;
  • at a wall console;
  • from a voice-activated device;
  • from miles away.

 

What Do You Need?

If you want to automate all or part of your home, you’ll need some basic startup equipment. SESCOS trained technicians can help you put together a package that works with your home, your needs and your budget.

The equipment you need will probably include:

  • a wireless protocol;
  • sensors to control different functions;
  • an integrator to allow devices to communicate with each other;
  • computer software;
  • an app that lets you control your home through your phone.

You’ll also need professional installation, and SESCOS can provide that.

We can also recommend protocols that are more energy-efficient than wifi or Bluetooth, allow you to integrate all your systems seamlessly, and are protected from hackers.

 

Cool Off or Warm Up

Look for systems that allow you to use heating and cooling only when you need them.

  • Start warming or cooling the house while you’re on your way home.
  • Occupancy sensors turn heat or air conditioning off when nobody’s in the room.
  • Energy monitors allow you to see what’s hogging energy in your house, and immediately correct it.
  • A one-button “sleep” setting on your thermostat will dim the lights, turn down the heat or air conditioning, and turn on security cameras all at once.

 

Lights, Camera, Action

Turn your TV viewing room into a fully-automated entertainment experience that will provide hours of enjoyment for you, your family and your guests.

  • Program the level of lighting based on time of day and ambiance, including brightness, dimmers and color.
  • Get one-button control of the volume and music selections for one room or the whole house.
  • Use sensors to alert you when guests or food delivery arrive so you don’t have to listen for the doorbell.
  • Smart locks let your guests in if you’re busy doing something else.
  • Automatically turn kitchen fans and slow cookers on.

 

Home, Safe Home

There are many different options for home security automation. They can be stand-alone or integrated with your home security system.

  • Smart locks on the main doors will give you full control over who enters your home, while preventing you from being accidentally locked out.
  • Sensors can tell you if a window’s been broken or someone is trying to open your safe.
  • Motion-activated lights and surveillance cameras will turn on as soon as movement is sensed outside.
  • Gas, water leak and carbon monoxide sensors will alert you to dangerous conditions.
  • Surveillance cameras allow you to watch what’s going on in your home even if you’re not there.

Millions of Americans use some kind of smart feature in their home, and the future of smart home technology is getting brighter. Right now you can find smart technology that will

  • help you bake;
