Convenience
Relying on your neighbors to watch your house when you are away is a burden and inconvenient for you both. With home automation, convenient control of your home is at your fingertips. You don’t have to trust someone else with your most valued possessions. Also, home automation technology helps perform many regular daily tasks automatically, freeing up the homeowner for other important tasks, like relaxing and enjoying their home. Smart gadgets are compatible with one another, and you can set different triggers between devices to automate regular home processes. For instance, you could set your smart locks to turn on your smart lighting when you unlock the front door.
Control
Have you ever left for work in the morning when it was a comfortable 68° outside, only to come home to a sweltering house because the temperature shot up to 90°? With our connected home products like Smart Thermostats, you can conveniently adjust your home temperature from the mobile app so your family is always comfortable.
Our customers also choose smart home devices to better control functions within the home. With home automation technology, you can know what’s happening inside your home at all times, no matter if you are home, at the office, or on the other side of the world on vacation.
Comfort
Some people use smart technology to record shows or to play music throughout the home. Connected devices can also help create a comfortable atmosphere, which provides intelligent and adaptive lighting, sound, and temperature, which can all help create an inviting environment.
We can also increase your home’s energy efficiency by remotely powering off systems and appliances when they aren’t in use but still maintaining a comfortable environment when you are home. In addition to the standard home automation products that give you active control, some products actively monitor systems and arm the homeowner with knowledge, insight, and guidance to achieve greater control and energy efficiency.
Home Automation Systems
Wire Monkeys specializes in the design, installation, and support of customized home automation and integration systems. Our complete home automation and integration services can include smart devices, appliance automation, whole-house audio, lighting control, shade and blind controls, pool and spa control, home entertainment systems, and much more. An integrated home system isn’t just a home with smart devices. It’s a connected network with automated functions and features to fit your lifestyle. Each piece can communicate with the system and be controlled remotely or integrated into an automated process. Integration expands your devices into functional sequences and processes.
Home integration can do much of the work in your daily routine, but it must be designed, installed, and implemented by experts, like Wire Monkeys, to utilize the systems’ full potential.
Below are some of the many examples of how you can utilize automation in your home:
Schedule Automation
When your alarm goes off in the morning, your coffee maker can start brewing a fresh cup.
Climate Control
Heating or air conditioning can be activated, depending on the time, the amount of sunlight, or your work schedule.
Lighting Control
Lighting can be sequenced when you arrive home in the dark, so your porch lights turn on before you leave your car to illuminate your walk-up to the door.
Whole House AV
Your home entertainment system can play the Monday Night Football jingle throughout the house to let your family know the game is starting.
Benefits of Home Automation
Comfort and security are the driving forces behind homeowners investing in home automation. Not only does home automation allow you to enjoy increased convenience, savings, and peace of mind, but it also allows you to access your home’s function from any remote location. As more home automation systems are readily available and affordable, homeowners are finding ways to upgrade their houses.
Control From Anywhere
As technology evolves, more and more aspects of your house can be controlled – not only when you are at home but also remotely. Integration also provides more control and monitoring when you’re not there. For example:
Shade Control
If it starts to storm while you are out of the house, you can use your mobile phone to lower the blinds so your pets aren’t as frightened by the lightning.
Intercom
When a delivery arrives at your door, you can use two-way audio to communicate with the delivery person.
Security
If there is movement outside your house or within certain property lines, you can program external lights to flash, security camera footage to save, or emergency alerts to be sent to your phone.
Wire Monkeys designs customized integration systems to be easy to operate, with intuitive and easy-to-use products. We offer a state-of-the-art way to control the various components of your home using a central hub operating system, a wall-mounted touchscreen, or an app on your phone.
Home Automation Components
Ideally, anything connected to a network can be automated and controlled remotely, including “on and off” devices such as lights, power outlets, electronic locks, security sensors, and audio distribution. Where home automation becomes truly smart is in the Internet-enabled devices that attach to this network and control it. The classic control unit is the home computer, for which many of the earlier home automation systems.
Smart Device Integrations
Wire Monkeys can help you integrate your existing devices into a cohesive solution, expand your system, or help you plan a brand new one. With so many products on the market, it’s hard to pick which ones to buy. You can trust our experienced team as we guide you through the top products and best solutions to meet your needs.
Smart device companies like Savant, ADT, Nest, Hauwei, SimpliSafe, Ring, and Leviton offer smart home solutions. This variety of integrated solutions providers allows you to manage virtually all the technology in your home in a single, simple-to-use system.
You can start small with a few smart light bulbs, a video doorbell, or a voice assistant like Amazon Echo or Google Home. But this is just the beginning. Imagine telling your house to adjust the temperature, control your lights, and even close your garage door from your phone. Imagine never having to worry about if you left the lights or stove on at home when you left.
As the smart home industry matures, more products can be integrated into a more extensive system. Wire Monkeys offers home integration services that connect multiple devices from different manufacturers. The idea is simple: if products from smart home brands can work together, owners can consolidate into a single home automation platform.
No-Touch Tech
The newest technology solutions utilize light, sound, and even motion to operate, with no buttons required! The rise of presence detectors changes the lighting and temperature based on the amount of people. It’s likely that the sensors will soon be able to recognize particular individuals’ movement patterns, a useful feature for residential surveillance systems. Home automation is even in restrooms with self-cleaning toilets, temperature-adjusting showers, and even leak-detecting plumbing systems that will notify homeowners and shut off the system in case of a leak.
