Amp up your home with these smart home automation tips

The festival season is the ideal time to invite friends and family into your glimmering smart home. Whether you’re relaxing, partying, or you just want to show off your 65-inch TV, how can you make things even better? Well, putting that tech to work can make your life easier and give you more time to focus on enjoying festivals. Anusha Technovision Pvt. Ltd offers a brief overview of how to get technology to lighten up your home, almost literally in some cases!



Save Energy


One of the key benefits of home automation is that it allows saving energy at home by scheduling your exterior lights so they aren’t on when they don’t need to be, using motion sensors that automatically turn off when you leave the room. It’s a great way to conserve power and have the best decoration, without dealing with an outrageous electric bill.



Cook With Ease


Whether baking festive delicacies or cooking an entire family dinner, you can use smart appliances to help with preparation. Your smartphone will notify you when the delicacies are cooked, while the safety sensors remind you if you have left the stove on, and the smart refrigerator alerts when the door is left open. 

 


Pick pretty pieces

Gone are the days when smart home automation devices were oversized eyesores. Now it's entirely possible to find sleek and stylish smart devices that won't draw attention. Smart devices are now small enough to be tucked away on a bookshelf and come in classic colours and design, that complement your home decor theme. 



Automate Your Festive Lighting

If you’ve got some lighting out in the garden, why not consider some weatherproofed on/off modules so you can avoid the need for manual control? Apply the same to your lights and decorations indoors so you’ve got all that lighting covered and you can automate it just by a click on your smartphones or tablets.

Create The Right Mood for Dinner

Now, with all the food in place, you can use automation to set the scene for the perfect meal. Create a dining room scene so that the lights are tailored accordingly, and your festive playlist kicks in. With a smart thermostat in place, the temperature is dialled in without you needing to continually fiddle with a manual alternative. All that remains is to enjoy all that lip-smacking food with your nearest and dearest.



Use wireless home security and smart home automation systems provided by ATPL to enhance your decorations, add a little warmth—literally and figuratively, and help make the festive season more fun and comfortable.
