Home security and home automation
One of the biggest trends of the 21st century for homebuilding will be home automation. This technology cues your appliances, lights, heating and cooling. Home alarm systems are quickly becoming part of home automation packages that are being offered in new homes. How does home automation work? With a computer that runs the system, you can program certain events that will occur during the day. For example, when you return home from work and deactivate your home security system, the lights will in your kitchen and living room will come on, as well as your television. Your oven will begin preheating for the dinner you’ve planned to cook. Your home is at the perfect temperature because the system turned up the heat 30 minutes before you got home. Heat and motion detectors let you know where your children and pets are – you always know which rooms are occupied. You’ll know who is home because every member of your family will have their own personal security code. Often an intercom system is integrated into the system so you can summon your family to dinner from another floor.
