Smart Lighting for Your 

“Smart” this or “smart” that—seems like everything is all about what’s smart for both inside and outside the home. And, as it happens, that applies to lighting as well. From convenience to customization to beauty, smart home lighting can offer a bounty of benefits. At Blind Builders serving Feasterville, we’re all about helping our customers create the comfortable and functional home of their dreams, including making sure the lighting is everything they want and needs. If you’re not familiar with smart home lighting, read up on it below! 

Things Smart Home Lighting Offers

Convenience, ambiance, security: these are just a few of the things you’ll get from smart home lighting. Switch-based and with individual lighting sources, traditional light systems don’t necessarily give you the ambiance you might want. Smart lighting can measure whether electric light is necessary or excessive, and some systems have motion sensors to detect if people are in the room. You might also get the following from a smart lighting system: 

• Convenience. You can integrate smart lighting with a whole-home system like Alexa to use voice commands or use your smartphone to make adjustments to your lighting. You can even create a schedule to turn lights on and off at set times
• Reduced energy costs. LED bulbs, used in most smart lighting systems, are more energy-efficient, which can help reduce your energy use. You can also dim the lights to reduce your energy usage even more—and that can in turn extend the life of the bulbs
• Personalization. You can set your system to use different colors or brightnesses of light or even use themes for occasions like holidays or parties. In addition, the smart light system can adjust the color temperature of its output—for example, cold light is more suitable for morning while warm light is best for the evening.
• Safety. Many smart lighting systems can integrate with security systems to make it seem like someone is home when they’re not and to brighten dark areas where burglars like to hide.

Boosting Circadian Rhythms

Our circadian rhythms are our internal clocks that tell the body when to eat, sleep, and wake up. For our ancestors, these patterns were originally driven by the sun. Although smart lighting can help the indoor environment feel personal and cozy, natural daylight is still the best way to help impact sleep patterns, daily routines, and overall health. Welcome PowerView® Automation! With this system, you can set your window fashions to open and close at programmed times, including local sunrise and sunset times.
