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
Medium size family house located in Warsaw, Poland has been built with the assumption of KNX home automation. Various stages of automation have been put in place starting from lightning , heating and blinds control followed by integration with irrigation system, CCTV, gates and weather station to prevent damage from wind and control water usage. System can be accessed remotely through the Gira Server which also provides visualizations for carious panels located around the house. Alarm system integration enables presence detection and window/door status to enable heating control.
