Saving Energy

Lighting control allows to dim lights to only the intensity you need instead of having lights at full intensity when it’s not needed. There are other unique ways that lights can reduce your monthly energy bills as well. For one, you can install occupancy sensors in bathrooms and kids’ rooms so lights turn off automatically when no one is in the room. Furthermore, lighting fixtures work with your automated shades---automatically dimming as shades open and let in sunlight. 

Automatic Control

By employing preset schedules that alter lighting according to the availability of natural light, you don’t have to worry about adjusting lights throughout the day to get the right comfort. It’s also easy to automate lights for other activities for hands-off control. For example, have motorized shades open and lights slowly turn on in the morning when it’s time to wake up. Another common use of schedules is for outdoor lighting, so landscape lighting illuminates your home as soon as the sun sets. 

Enhanced Customization

Standard light bulbs come in a single hue, tone, and intensity level, but you can exercise more control over the color temperature and brightness of your fixtures with a lighting control system. The technology allows you to explore different lighting settings in each area of your home to find the right fit. Save those settings based on personal tastes and the task at hand and save them into the system to create unique lighting scenes. These scenes are easy to pull up from a mobile app, touchpad, or even custom-engraved buttons on elegant on-wall keypads.
