ZOOM ON THE LIMITATIONS OF SHUTTER AUTOMATION

Just like traditional electric shutters, be aware that your automated shutters will not work in case of power failure unless powered by photo voltaic panels.

If you want to control your shutters with your tablet or smartphone, note that you will need an internet connection.
Shutter automation, how does it work?
The automation of your shutters will not be done in the same way depending on whether they are rolling or flying. Here are some explanations:

For roller shutters, installation is easier. A tubular motor placed in a winding axis is installed. The latter is placed in a chest in front or (when the construction is new) directly integrated in the masonry. To allow the home automation to work, a radio receiver is then placed in the trunk compartment.

For shutters, the installation is a little more complicated since you will have to install electric arms to operate the opening and closing of the shutters. The radio receiver is positioned at the frame of the window.


Centralize my lighting, what are the advantages and the limits?

Home automation is synonymous with modernity, comfort and savings. Also, more and more households decide to adopt it for their housing. We are talking about 500 to 700 million so-called "connected" or "smart" homes by 2020. However, we are not always well informed and it is not always easy to take the plunge. Why decide to centralize your lighting? What would be the benefits for you? What are the disadvantages to take into account? Here are some answers to enlighten you:

Centralizing your lighting will bring you an extra comfort of life: indeed, you can for example program the lighting and extinguishing of your lighting according to your attendance and your absences. This will light your lights when they detect a presence and turn off automatically when there is no one left in the room.

A HOME EASIER TO LIVE


In addition, you will have the opportunity to create different atmospheres according to your desires. As a result, you can increase or decrease the brightness in a room at your leisure according to your needs.

Centralizing your lighting will give you additional security: when you are away, thanks to home automation, you can if you wish, simulate a presence by programming the lighting of your lights at previously chosen times.

Centralizing your lighting will allow you to save energy: when your lighting is automated, you will no longer need to check if all the light spots have been turned off because, equipped with a presence detector, they will turn off. alone without needing your intermediary. This will save you a lot of energy. Lamps are better managed and power consumption drops.
If the benefits of centralized lighting are not lacking, there are some limitations to consider:

To have a centralized lighting at home, you must have an internet connection. Indeed, it is necessary to install a control center which will have to be constantly connected. In case of internet failure, the home automation will not work.

The initial investment remains quite substantial. The costs can vary greatly depending on the equipment chosen but remain important (they are nonetheless amortized by the energy savings generated over the long term).

Indeed, from now on you simply need to have a wireless connection (or 4 G) secure connected to a control panel so that your equipment can be managed remotely from your smartphone or tablet. STEERING Home automation allows, thanks to electrical relays, to control the lighting, which is very practical especially in winter. It is also possible to control heating and air conditioning, or to be warned of intrusions or domestic damage.

Indeed, each manufacturer often has a security protocol of its own. However, the biggest brands ...
