Never have we lived as comfortably as we do now, especially with technological advancements making life easier every day. Smart homes are one such technology that has helped us cope with our busy lives by taking much of the burden off our shoulders.
The intriguing part is that we often don't realize the extent of the effect of smart homes on our daily lives. We can probably name some of the features we obtain after converting our homes, but they are only a few out of many.
This blog will help you discover how beneficial smart home technology is for us.
Common Smart Home Features
Before we explore the benefits, let's first look at smart homes' features that we take advantage of the most.
1. Automated Water Consumption Management
Intelligent water consumption management is a key feature of smart homes powered by Tantiv4's Shield Automation. The feature allows the system to detect water leaks and shut off relevant pipes automatically while simultaneously informing you about the damage.
2. Intelligent Lighting Control
Intelligent lighting control automatically turns off the lights and similar items in the room when sensors no longer detect human presence. The purpose is to conserve energy and take care of matters even if you forget.
3. Advanced Security
Smart homes are automatically more secure, especially ones with Shield Automation running the operations. They have sensitive motion, smoke, and fire detection sensors that can alert you in case of possible emergencies or break-ins.
The best part is that you can synchronize your phone to ensure all messages and alerts are delivered to you directly.
4. Remote Access
Smart technology is integrated, which means you will have remote access over all aspects of your house controlled by smart technology, even when you are away.
How Living in a Smart Home Affects your Life
Given the features mentioned above, the following are the most prominent ways smart homes affect our lives.
1. Reduced Stress
Automated water consumption management or intelligent lightning control are features that can help reduce your stress. You can rest assured that you will not accidentally waste water or energy just because you didn't detect the leak on time or forgot to turn off lights or electronics.
2. Cost Saving
Undetected water leaks can cause extensive damage in addition to making the total water & electricity bill skyrocket. Therefore, having a smart home means you will not have to worry about getting an enormous utility bill because the house needed maintenance or you forgot to turn off lights a few too many times.
3. Sustainable Living
Water and energy consumption optimization is part of the intelligent framework of smart homes. This framework prevents wastage of resources as much as possible, allowing you to live life sustainably.
