In the age of smart homes, transforming your living spaces with modern lighting control systems and motorized window treatments is an energy-efficient and stylish upgrade. Whether you’re looking to enhance convenience, boost energy efficiency, or add a touch of sophistication to your Colorado home, here’s a comprehensive guide to the top smart solutions for every room.
Living Room: Create the Perfect Ambiance
RA2 Select Lighting Control System
- Customizable Lighting: The RA2 Select by Lutron offers a whole-home lighting solution that integrates incandescent and LED lights. With the main repeater connecting your smart lighting dimmer and switchers, you can easily adjust the lighting to match your activities—a cozy movie night or an evening of entertaining guests.
- Voice Control & App Integration: Pair with your smart hub to control lighting with voice commands via Alexa, Google Assistant, or Apple HomeKit. Set schedules or create scenes using the Lutron App for a seamless experience.
Motorized Window Treatments
- Hunter Douglas PowerView®: Control your blinds and shades effortlessly. Use the PowerView® App to set schedules or adjust window treatments with a simple voice command. The Pebble® remote control adds another layer of convenience, making it easy to manage natural light and privacy.
Kitchen: Efficient and Bright
Occupancy/Vacancy Sensors
- Energy Efficiency: Install Lutron’s Occupancy/Vacancy Sensors to ensure lights are only on when needed. These sensors detect motion and automatically turn lights on or off, reducing energy waste and adding convenience, especially when your hands are full.
Pico Scene Keypads
- One-Touch Control: Simplify your kitchen lighting with Pico Scene Keypads. Pre-set scenes like “Cooking” for bright task lighting or “Dinner” for a softer, ambient glow can be activated with a single button press, making your kitchen both functional and inviting.
Bedroom: Comfort and Convenience
Maestro Dimmer Switch and SMART Switch
- Adjustable Lighting: Replace traditional switches with Maestro dimmer switches to create a relaxing atmosphere. Dim the lights for a calm evening or brighten them for reading, all with the convenience of a smart switch.
Motorized Blinds
- Hunter Douglas SoftTouch® Motorization: Opt for the SoftTouch® system for a child-safe, cord-free solution. Adjust your window treatments with a gentle push or pull of the wand, ensuring a peaceful start to your day.
Home Office: Focus and Productivity
Geofencing Technology
- Automated Lighting: Use geofencing to activate your home office lighting when you arrive home. Ensure your workspace is always well-lit and ready for you to work.
Bathroom: Smart and Practical
Occupancy/Vacancy Sensors
- Automatic Lighting: Install these sensors in bathrooms for hands-free lighting control. Perfect for those late-night trips without fumbling for a switch.
Motorized Shades and Blinds
- Privacy and Light Control: Hunter Douglas motorized shades can be programmed to open with the morning sun and close for privacy at night, all controlled via the PowerView® App or voice commands. We also recommend a screen shade or aluminum blinds for rooms with significant moisture, such as bathrooms.
Outdoor Spaces: Extend Your Smart Home
Smart Away Feature
- Enhanced Security: Use the Smart Away feature to turn lights on and off while you’re away, giving the impression that someone is home. This adds a layer of security to your outdoor spaces.
Weather-Resistant Shades
- Hunter Douglas Outdoor Solutions: Provide shade and privacy for patios or outdoor kitchens.
