Lutron, a leading lighting control and mootrized shading manufacturer, has perfected energy savings with its sensor and shading technology. But how does it actually work? Let's dive in. 

Access Control: It’s Not As Complicated As You Think 

Whether through key cards, pin codes, or even biometric scanners, access control systems use smart technology to verify who can and cannot enter your business. It’s infinitely more convenient than issuing physical keys for every staff member—and is much safer than forgoing entry management altogether. 

Yet, some business owners still hesitate to adopt a physical access control system due to several misconceptions. So, let’s debunk some of those myths floating around. Learn how remote access control really works and can benefit your Texas organization.

Optimize Your Meeting Rooms for the Best Video Conferencing Experience 

Zoom Rooms brings the Zoom video conferencing experience into the real world. Rather than join meetings on your own computer, Zoom Rooms are meant for conference rooms to unite in-person and remote teams.

If your Dallas-Fort Worth, TX, business is considering installing Zoom Rooms, you’ll want to set up the space for success. As a commercial AV company that installs Zoom Rooms for businesses, here are our tips to make the most of Zoom Rooms.

Rely Less on HVAC with Automated Window Shades 

With scorching hot summers and occasionally chilly winters, Dallas residents often rely heavily on air conditioning and heating systems to maintain a comfortable indoor environment. However, this constant need for temperature control comes at a cost: high energy bills and waste. 

According to the Energy Information Administration, the average household in Texas spends over $1,801 annually on energy bills, with a significant portion of that attributed to heating and cooling. Wouldn’t it be nice to use that money towards something else—a vacation, perhaps? Not to mention the environmental impact that energy consumption causes. Fortunately, there is a solution that can help you stay comfortable while saving money and reducing your energy—motorized shades.

Learn how motorized shades from smart home brands like Lutron can help your Dallas-Fort Worth home save energy automatically. And if you’re ready to bring motorized shading to your home? Contact Texadia Systems here to learn more. 

A More Comfortable Way to Illuminate Home 

Imagine waking in the morning, and rather than struggling to wake up in your stuffy, dim bedroom, your window shades automatically raise to let in the bright morning sun. You don’t even have to press a button—they’re scheduled to follow your routine. 

Later in the day, as you work in the home office and the sun starts to lower, all the right lights brighten to a comfortable glow. Your home’s lights shift to a cozy, golden hue in the evening, helping you wind down and prepare for sleep again. 

With a smart lighting control system, you’re never stuck with just one shade of white light. And it’s not just about aesthetics—lighting control also enhances your overall well-being and mood throughout the day. How? Let’s find out.

How Team Rooms Are Changing the Conferencing Experience 

If you’re looking for video conferencing solutions that work for hybrid teams, maybe you’ve come across or heard about Team Rooms. So what are Team Rooms, and how do they work?

Microsoft Team Rooms (typically stylized Teams Rooms) are purpose-built meeting room systems that enable seamless collaboration and communication. These rooms are equipped with high-quality audio and video devices that sync to your conference calls, making virtual meetings feel like face-to-face interactions. 

With Microsoft Teams Rooms, you can easily host meetings, share content, and collaborate with your team. Whether you have team members in different states or cities who can't physically attend the meeting or you simply want to enhance your meeting experience, Microsoft Teams Rooms provide an all-in-one solution.

Acoustic Treatments Aren’t One-Size-Fits-All 

We’ve seen it happen many times. A business renovates its office or commercial space, thrilled about the new windows, glass walls, or open layout—only to realize it’s reverberating with echo and reflections. 

Whether conversations are bouncing off the walls or you’re trying to stage live performances, acoustics are an essential component of design. But as rooms vary in width, height, and wall materials, each space requires different acoustic treatments. Foam or fiberglass wall panels may suit some rooms but won’t work in a glass-walled conference room, for instance. 

Let’s examine how various business spaces can improve their sound with acoustic treatments. And if you’re looking for acoustic treatments in the McKinney, TX, area? Contact Texadia Systems here. 

There’s an Easier Way to Manage, Update & Replace AV 

Is your Dallas-Fort Worth business still investing in expensive audiovisual equipment and replacing it every few years? That means someone on your staff needs to find a way to sell old equipment and order and install new AV. And if anything goes wrong with your technology, it’s your business’s responsibility alone to repair or replace it. 

That isn’t the case with AV as a Service (AVaaS), the new, modern approach to commercial AV. Rather than purchase your AV hardware upfront, AVaaS is a subscription-based model that provides access to the latest technology without the need for large upfront investments. Instead of purchasing equipment outright, businesses can simply pay a monthly fee for access to AV equipment and services.

Bright Ideas for Home Lighting Design

And you can do the same for your Southlake, TX, home! Here’s why partnering with an integrator is the smartest thing you can do for your home’s lighting design. Ready to learn more? Contact Texadia Systems here. 

Make Life Simpler (Not More Complicated) with Smart Home Control 

More people than ever are curious about smart home solutions. But if they aren’t careful, they can be led astray by DIY smart gadgets. It seems fun and easy to order a smart thermostat online and then purchase a few smart bulbs and speakers. But it’s less fun when you realize every device has its own app or remote to control it. 

Instead, you want a connected ecosystem that syncs all your solutions into one platform. From one app, remote, or touch panel, you have complete control over your security, entertainment, comfort, and more. 

Learn how smart home control works below, and contact Texadia Systems in Dallas, TX, to start your home upgrade today!

Hybrid Meetings & Presentations Don’t Have to Be a Headache 

It’s a problem plaguing offices nationwide: ghost conference rooms. As hybrid work grows in popularity and we rely more heavily on technology, many businesses find it easier to join meetings individually online. With half the staff working hybrid and half in the office, conference rooms are left unused. 

But in-person meetings still offer incredible benefits. In the office, people are more likely to voice their opinions, open up, and find solutions they may not have otherwise. Your office’s conference rooms don’t have to go unused—you may just need to make your systems more user-friendly. 

Here’s how you can improve the meeting experience with more strategic conference room audio-video. And if your business is in the Frisco, TX, area, contact Texadia Systems to install these solutions today. 

Bring Flexibility & Scalability to Your Texas Company 

Technology is always evolving. And although the latest AV solutions seem like the epitome of progress, there’s no knowing how technology will advance in the future. The conferencing systems, video displays, computers, and controllers you install today will likely fall behind in a matter of years. 

Even if your business has the latest and greatest tech, you need to continually purchase new devices as you scale and expand. New staff need computers and conference rooms, and it’s time-consuming to order new parts and install everything yourself. 

Thankfully, one way to future-proof your business and ensure it adapts to changing needs is by subscribing to AV as a Service (AVaaS). AVaaS is a subscription-based plan that allows enterprises to access audiovisual technology without the need for upfront investment or the hassle of maintenance. 

Let’s explore the advantages of AVaaS and how it can provide the flexibility and scalability needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving market.

Motorized Shades That Perfectly Fit Patios & Porches 

Wouldn’t it be nice to spend more time outdoors? Rather than eating breakfast at the kitchen table, what if you brought it to the patio or porch? Instead of working remotely in the office, you could bring your laptop into the fresh air of the backyard. 

This often seems like a great idea—until mosquitoes nip at your ankles, direct sunlight burns into your forehead, and your patio seat is covered with pollen dust. 

Thankfully, there's a way to enjoy the comforts of indoor living in the great outdoors, and that’s with outdoor motorized shades. With a tap of a button, you can lower light-filtering shades that make your space more enjoyable while still enjoying fresh air and nature views. 

Draper is one of our preferred partners for outdoor shades, and we specifically appreciate its FlexShade ZIP model, which uses an automatic ‘zipping’ feature to keep shades secure. Here’s why Draper outdoor shades and the FlexShade ZIP design stand out among other shading products on the market.

Why A Home Lighting Control System Is Worth the Upgrade 

Lightbulbs have largely functioned the same way for nearly one hundred and fifty years—ever since Thomas Edison first invented them. Sure, colored light bulbs emerged, followed by fluorescents and spiral CFLs that use less energy. Still, all lightbulbs worked the same as always—you screwed them in, turned on a light, and that was that.  

That is, until the LED light. With LED lighting, suddenly you can remotely control the appearance and atmosphere of your home like a magic spell. LED lights can be intelligently controlled to adjust their brightness and color and can even be managed in groups or as a whole system. 

Upgrading your home with an LED lighting control system has proven to enhance both comfort and efficiency in many ways. Read on to find out how.
