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 essence, smart apartments combine connected building systems, smart amenities, community management, and building automation systems (such as HVAC and access control). Whenever a typical apartment building is being constructed, the contractors begin by calling the water and electric utilities. You'll need to phone the KNX  a third time if you want an intelligent residential building. Connectivity is built into smart apartments from the start. Installing a KNX network, which links inhabitants, smart devices, management, and outside services, is the first step. WiFi-as-a-service, smart sensors, smart HVAC, smart access control, and a system management dashboard are all examples of connectivity. Property managers can gather information from the entire building through connectivity, not just from individual apartments. This enables businesses to make wiser decisions that will improve the functionality and efficiency of their facilities.
