How Can Home Automation Help You Achieve Your New Year Goals?

It’s safe to say that most of us are eager to leave 2020 behind and turn the page to new beginnings. A new year means creating new goals, which helps to identify what’s truly important to us. However, life gets busy and work gets stressful, which often makes it difficult to accomplish those goals.

Whatever your goals are this year, smart home technology can help you see them through. By partnering with a Savant home automation company to deliver a custom smart home system in your Brentwood, CA residence, you’ll have the tools you need to make life a little easier so you can focus on your pursuits with fewer stressors.

Leave the Small Routine Tasks to Savant

Think of all the routine tasks you perform every day at home. You make your bed, brush your teeth, wake up the kids, feed your pets, cook and clean, check the thermostats, adjust lights and shades, and more. While these are all necessary tasks, they can quickly steal time from activities such as reading, learning a new skill, exercising, and other personal pursuits.

While Savant can’t brush your teeth or cook for you, it can perform other routine tasks throughout the day so you have more time for your own endeavors.For example, you can program your house lights and shades to adjust on their own throughout the day. Wake up to an illuminated home and go to bed knowing you didn’t accidentally leave a light on or shade open.

With the Savant Pro app, you can create custom smart home scenes that activate different devices throughout the home simultaneously at the touch of a button. For instance, a “Goodnight” scene can arm your alarm system, lock allyour doors, adjust the thermostats, shut off the lights, lower the shades, and stream a meditative playlist in the bedroom. Create scenes like “Away,” “Relax,” and “Entertain” to adjust devices throughout the home and quickly set the scene for any occasion.

Improve Focus and Sleep Habits with Tunable Lighting

Want to improve your energy levels and sleeping patterns? While there are many holistic remedies to consider, such as eating better, exercising, and drinking lots of water, technology can also be of service. 

Savant offers advanced tunable lighting solutions that can transform your home and improve your wellbeing. Take advantage of circadian color shifting, which tunes your LED lights to various Kelvin temperatures and brightness levels to sync your circadian rhythm with the natural shifts of sunlight while indoors.

Our bodies thrive in sunlight, but because we spend 90% of our time indoors, we lose exposure to sun and sit under stagnant, often harsh light from morning to night. By simulating the changing color temperature and intensity of the sun, your indoor tunable lights can help regulate your internal clock and facilitate better focus and sleep.

Easily Monitor and Reduce Your Energy Consumption

These days, finding small ways to help the planet is a goal for nearly everyone. You can do this by shopping locally, buying secondhand, going solar, and recycling, just to name a few. Another way you can reduce your carbon footprint—and save some money at the same time—is by reducing your energy consumption at home. Savant makes it easy to monitor and manage your energy consumption so you know precisely how much power you’re using and where you can reduce that usage.

With flexible load management, you can monitor and control every load in your home from the convenience of your smartphone. Using the Savant Pro app, you can view your energy reports to see exactly how much energy you’re using and where. Cut power over to a generator during outages, shut power off to certain appliances when you’re away, and avoid vampire loads that use energy even when they’re “off.” Savant helps you make smarter energy decisions so you can live greener.
