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.

Ease of Use

By integrating KNX, we automatically experience a higher energy efficiency and comfort. Furthermore, by the possibility to use further devices, in order to make the usage of the project easier, we can look at further opportunity to even make the whole installation easier in usage.

Customer's description

Brand new family house in Pirita. Building managing system consist of lighting control with a different scenes, independent heating control for each room and zone, weather station is used for the shutters control. Push buttons produced by Ekinex are used for lighting switching. The external surface of Fenix NTM® involves the use of nanotechnology. Its surface is extremely opaque, anti-fingerprint and features a very pleasant soft touch. DINUY dimmer is used for the dimming the light. EibPort v3 produced by BAB Tech is a system for the supervision and control of a KNX home automation system. Developed with web-oriented technologies, it has a uniform interface with high graphical impact on every platform.
