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

Customers Description
This project was a challenge in several aspects, at first our client hired just the project and before
he could have contracted the products and the implementation he got COVID-19 and was
hospitalized in UCI for 17 days between life and death. As it was right in the pandemic beginning,
everybody still had a huge insecurity about the future. The constructions were stopped, the fear
and the insecurity about how life would be after COVID-19 was the most frequent feeling. Our
customer called us and said he wanted to hire the other services and products for his new house
that was being built, considering that he realized that the most important things were inside home,
his family. He wished to enjoy his best moments with more quality of life, safety and comfort for
him and the ones he loves. KNX protocol, due to its atemporal feature and high range of usabilities,
was the best solution for this client’s demand, in which our personalized interface could meet his
