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

In spite of the significant developments in “smart-building” in construction projects, some clients are still cautious, or rather skeptical, about using these smart systems in the building; they are usually concerned about their cost and/or complexity. In this 10-unit project, using various brands, while having the extraordinary technical features of the KNX system, we have made an effort to minimize the executory cost for the client. This successful experience has provided us with the opportunity to do other projects with this client as well. In each unit, multi-function, thermostatic push buttons are used that are professionally programmed and user-friendly, which enable the user to readily control the lighting, motorized curtains, and three-speed fan coils. Furthermore, a smart touch-pad is installed in the living room of each unit, which will enable the user to centrally control the system, and, having the mobile application and using Cloud technology.
