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

This project was a no brainer, back in the beginning on 2023 Vogelenzangstraat was using Niko home control technology to create the smart home. With no integrations and no smart automation it was a very simple set up. Moving to KNX was the ultimate best decision to bring everything together in one place with a seamless approach. Monitoring and visually reviewing our data usage was key and that is exactly what we have today. The hardware itself is also beautiful so our home is not just smart but it is also using the best quality modern products.
