Check out the Benefits of a Smarter, Safer & More Efficient Home

Not long ago, smart homes either marked the pinnacle of home luxury or were a faraway dream. Fast-forward to today, and smart systems are growing exponentially around the world as technology becomes more accessible for the typical homeowner.

Investing in a home automation system not only adds sophistication to your Dallas, TX lifestyle, but it also enhances your home security, helps you save energy, and ultimately makes living easier. Now more than ever, right now is the best time to reap the benefits of a smarter, safer, and more efficient home. Explore three of those life-improving benefits below.

Tunable Lighting & Motorized Shades for a Comfortable and Convenient Home

You already have lights and shades in your Dallas, TX, home. So why would you need to upgrade to smart lighting control? Well, tunable LED lighting and motorized shades offer countless benefits, from saving time to sleeping better and reducing energy consumption. And it can all be done from one intuitive interface, from one smart system.

Texadia Systems has recently partnered with Lutron, a pioneer in lighting control technology. Since 1950, Lutron has changed the way homeowners illuminate their homes and were the first to invent the rotary home lighting dimmer. We’ll share how Lutron’s smart lighting solutions work and what a difference they can make in your Texas household, so keep reading to see why we think you’ll love this solution.

Who Knew Window Shades Could Be So Beneficial?

Have you experienced the magic of motorized shades? 

Controlling multiple window shades at once is handy, especially when it’s done through a single tap of a button. But when you automate your motorized shades to follow a routine—and when you use the right kind of shading materials—you achieve incredible things. 

What kinds of things? When done right, your motorized shades help your home reduce energy consumption and even preserve your furniture, wall coverings, and artwork to last longer. 

While these benefits may seem far-fetched, below we’ll explain how automating motorized shades work wonders for your Dallas, TX home. And to learn more about smart home technologies, contact Texadia Systems here. 

See How Convenient Life Becomes with Smart Home Control 

Remember the days before smartphones? To travel, we’d consult paper maps or print directions from MapQuest. We made calls on our phones but took pictures with a separate camera. And to listen to music, we’d plug headphones into an iPod or mp3 player. We used a different device for every action, filling an entire bag with what today is consolidated into a single smartphone. 

Today, you can apply the same consolidation to your daily life with a smart home system. Rather than use separate remotes, apps, and wall switches across the house, all of your home’s subsystems can be synced into one easy-to-use controller like Savant. 

Savant is a home automation system that controls lighting, AV, thermostats, security, and more, creating a comfortable and convenient home experience. To see what it would be like to live with Savant in your University Park, TX home, read on to discover the benefits. And to learn more about smart home control, subscribe to our free monthly newsletter here. 

Learn Why Josh.ai Is A Superior Voice Command Assistant

Home automation makes Fort Worth living much more luxurious. With just a tap of a finger, smart devices throughout the home awaken to meet your needs; motorized shades lower to block out glare on the TV, and lights dim to set the mood for a romantic dinner. The ease of controlling your Texas home goes beyond a homeowner’s fingertips, though, because voice control is here.

The smart speakers found at big-box retailers have inundated the market, making Alexa, Siri, and Google household names. While helpful, the companies are known for sharing your information with third parties and using it for marketing purposes. This leaves most homeowners uncomfortable but feeling stuck – they want the ease of voice control in their homes, and they see the loss of privacy as a requirement. That’s not the case anymore with Josh.ai!

To learn more about voice control and other smart home innovations, join our mailing list, and read on below to understand how the innovative natural language assistant, Josh, elevates voice-assisted automation in new ways while additionally protecting your data and respecting your family’s privacy.

Managing Your Home Has Never Been Easier 

A smart home system like Savant has the power to consolidate all your home’s technologies into one platform. Just like our smartphones can call, text, navigate GPS, and search the web, automation includes all of your house’s subsystems under one umbrella. You can access lighting, audio, video, security, HVAC, and more from one intelligent controller.

If you’re curious about home automation, Savant has been one of the leading names in the industry since 2005. But what does smart home living really look like? And what will your daily routine be like with a Savant home automation system in Dallas? 

Until you’ve seen Savant in action, it’s hard to fully grasp what an automated home is like. But as a Savant dealer based in the Plano, TX, area, we’ll share what you can expect with a new smart home system.

A great get-together depends lots on the atmosphere. Music and decorations can contribute to a relaxing ambiance, but did you know you can use smart lighting control to enhance festivities too? Continue reading to see how to light up your home in Highland Park, TX for the holidays.

How Lutron Levels Up Your Home’s Lighting

New wireless smart LED lightbulbs like Philips Hue let users adjust the bulb’s color while toggling on and off over a smartphone app. But a complete lighting control system like Lutron is much more sophisticated than a single smart bulb. Lutron systems let you control every lighting fixture and motorized shade in your house, automating the ambiance automatically through sensors and schedules. 

With a lighting system, you won’t have to take out your app every time you want to use a bulb and change the color. Lutron knows your preferences and will adjust the lights based on your routine, responding to voice commands or pre-programmed scenes. 

How does Lutron work? As a certified Lutron dealer, we’ll share all you need to know about total lighting control below. And to learn more about installing Lutron lighting in your Dallas, TX home, contact Texadia Systems here! We’re always open to new home projects. 

Want to Minimize Your Energy Usage While Staying Cool? 

Texas summers mean heat—and a lot of it. With temperatures often reaching triple digits, it’s nearly impossible to get through the season without the air conditioning switching on multiple times an hour - even at night! But as everyone knows, cooling costs can accumulate on your monthly electric bills while harming the environment.

What can one do? Sweltering at home to be eco-friendly isn’t a practical option. But when you own a smart home system with technology like Lutron shades, smart thermostats, and automated lighting, you’ll instantly save energy while keeping cool. 

If you’d like to optimize your Highland Park, TX home’s energy usage year-round, learn how smart home technology can help below. And to implement these solutions, contact Texadia Systems here.
