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
A medium size apartment located in Suceava, in which we have provided KNX control as follows:
- lighting - switching and dimming using Gewiss Ice Touch and Gewiss Switches
- underfloor heating (combi boiler) and cooling (air conditioning) - using Gewiss KNX Ice thermostat
- roller shutter control - manual, automatic, scenes
- logic and server - Gewiss Gateway
- visualisation on Gewiss touchscreen
- phone and tablet app for remote control
- internet access for installer
Similar to other projects, the challange was in calculating the power supply and wires for all the LED strip lights from ceilings. The designer forbidded to install power supplies in ceiling with access hatches, so all the power emanates from the distribution board located in hallway.
