Four ways an automated, integrated home reduces stress

Smart home automation isn’t just about incorporating the latest home technology in order to take advantage of the best new gadgets on the market — it’s about tailoring specific capabilities to your exact wants, needs, and desires. Naturally, reducing stress is at the top of the list when it comes to creating the right home environment for any of our clients. Learn how a home automation system can help you reduce everyday stress below.

Set the scene

We like to think about home automation and the implementation of smart home products in terms of setting scenes that align with your personal routine. We tend to think about this concept in three phases: home scene (come home routine), night scene (ready for bed routine), and away scene (leaving routine). These scenes tend to elicit the same step-by-step pattern for every homeowner — from arming a smart lock on the front door and setting the lights to a specific level, to closing the garage door and arming the alarm while heading off to work. Smart home automation has the ability to streamline these actions and actively make these specific times of day easier for you and your entire family.

Program for comfort

Our homes are our safe spaces. It’s where we allow ourselves to rest, relax, and find comfort every day. Our team prioritizes this idea when it comes to smart home automation. Some clients prefer their lights to come on when they come home without having to press a button or use a key. Likewise, many clients enjoy how easily they can leave their home, setting it ‘just right’ with one ‘AWAY’ command. By tuning into your personal patterns, interests, and priorities, you are ensured comfort and peace of mind as you interact with your home.

Simplify the checklist

Living in any home naturally comes with a long list of chores, to-do’s, and checklists — and it’s the role of smart home automation to eliminate as many of these as possible. Instead of the nighttime shutdown routine of manually adjusting your lighting, locking all of your doors, turning off the audio/video system, making sure the garage door is shut, and arming your alarm system, imagine it all happening with one button press (or voice command). “SLEEP” never happened so easily! Plus, when traveling or away from home, smart, connected homes offer you the comfort and peace of mind knowing you can control your home’s systems wherever you are.

Personalize your space

Your smart home system should be configured to your personal way of life, including the preferences and priorities you set. It doesn’t matter if you’re a die-hard Apple family, prefer Samsung over Sony or vice versa, or a music-lover looking to incorporate innovative speakers – whatever is important to you, is just as important to us. There’s nothing that eliminates stress like living in a home that truly feels configured to you and how you function each day … and when it has a glitch or it’s time for an upgrade, it’s equally comforting knowing we’ll be here for you.
