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
In these apartments we have implemented automation engineering systems of the building. The automation includes: lighting control from wall panels as well as motion sensors; independent climate control in different rooms; curtain control; system for monitoring energy resources and protection from emergencies; sun protection system on the terrace with safety function thanks to the use of a weather station. The users could create and edit their own control scripts. Implemented integration into Apple Homekit with the Siri's voice control.
