Are you considering a smart technology upgrade for your home this winter? There’s a lot to consider in terms of individual devices, but you also want to make sure that you have a centralized control system that allows you to access all of those different parts without having to juggle multiple remotes and smartphone apps. That's where Control4 home automation is a huge boon, unifying your individual devices in a streamlined interface customized for your home and easy for everyone in your family to use. 

In this blog, we break down the key benefits of a Control4 home automation system, spotlighting why it’s an immensely valuable addition to your Jacksonville property.

Maximize Convenience and Comfort

Imagine having a home that automatically adjusts to your daily routine. Instead of a blaring alarm clock waking you up, you are gently eased out of bed by motorized shades rising to let sunlight in and your morning playlist gradually increasing in volume. The climate changes to your ideal waking temperature, so you feel totally comfortable as you get ready to start your day. 

This is all possible with Control4 home automation, which allows you to program your system to match your schedule. When you get home from work after a busy day, the smart lighting in your home will turn on when you open the garage door. Whether you like to relax by listening to music or watching TV, you can access your media system from the same app that controls your other devices and pick what media in whatever room you want. 

Lower Your Energy Bill

Everyone should be thinking about how they can conserve energy. It’s good for the environment and it’s good for your wallet, and with Control4 home automation, you can easily monitor your energy usage and make necessary adjustments like turning off lights in rooms that aren’t in use. Your Control4 system can even make these changes on its own, and by installing occupancy sensors throughout your home, your lights will dim or turn off when spaces are vacant. 

Reinforce Security

Security is essential to giving you peace of mind, and with Control4 home automation, you can trust that your home is protected in case of emergencies. If you’re away from home for an extended period, like on vacation, Control4 has a “Mockupancy” setting that randomly activates lights, motorized shades, and even A/V components to create the illusion that your home is occupied.

If an intruder is detected on your property, your smart security system will flash outdoor lights, trigger an audio warning, and send you an instant alert so you can contact the authorities. You can check your surveillance cameras directly from the app to see what is happening without putting yourself in danger.
