Detailed Description
Energy Efficiency
The usage of automated functions already save energy in every installation. Especially the usage of KNX has a lot of potential for further energy savings, which can contribute to a better environmental footprint. Be extending KNX to more functions and applications, energy savings of up to 60% can be realised. Thanks to the flexibility of KNX, these functions can easily be implemented in this installation
Innovation
Smart homes and buildings are always an upgrade in comparison to a conventional installation. Not only automated functions and a higher level of comfort contribute to a higher living standard, but also the possibility to be ready for coming innovations. Thanks to the usage of KNX, the door has been opened to integrate new innovative solutions, using the worldwide STANDARD for home and building control.

Customers Description
Apartamento empleado como prototipo/piloto por HogarTec y explotado con éxito desde el 2010.
Todos los elementos eléctricos de la instalación están controlados: iluminación, climatización, persianas, toldos, suministro de agua corriente, suministro eléctrico, seguridad anti intrusión, anti incendios, con detección y prevención de fugas de agua, control de la TV y el audio a las escenas, gestión remota vía IP y SMS.
Al ser un apartamento para alquiler vacacional se ha hecho especial hincapié en la facilidad de uso y en la autogestión. En la autogestión se desarrollaron funciones especialmente novedosas como el Autoarmado inteligente de la Central de Alarmas que evita que la casa quede sin protección a causa del descuido de algún inquilino. El autoarmado provoca además el corte del suministro de agua corriente para impedir fugas en cisternas estropeadas o grifos mal cerrados.
