Discovering the Everyday Benefits of Whole-Home Control
Let Your Smart Home Manage Daily Tasks & Routines
As humans, we are creatures of habit. These often unconscious routines become automatic behaviors and serve a critical purpose. They free up mental energy, increase overall productivity, and reduce decision fatigue and stress. One study found that we spend nearly half our time on routine tasks that have become habits.
What does that have to do with whole-home control and smart home living in Northeast and Central Ohio?
Everything.
Imagine your smart home in Cuyahoga Falls, OH, performing these tasks for you. In the process, life becomes simpler, and you find yourself having more time for the things you enjoy.

The Beginning of Your Day
What does your daily routine look like? For some, the morning starts by raising the shades, turning on certain lights, adjusting the thermostat, and tuning in to their favorite news channel or playlist. Others heat the sauna and jacuzzi, raise the home gym temperature to 95°F, and play their hot yoga video.
While we may all be creatures of habit, those habits are very different. Fortunately, your smart home doesn’t judge. It adapts to your preferences and responds to preset scenes and schedules. The result is a home that creates the ideal atmosphere from when you wake until you retire. And all you had to do was press “Good Morning” on the keypad or activate the good morning schedule to begin at sunrise.
Working from Home Routine
After breakfast, you head to the home office and set up a productive environment. With one tap, you stream The Piano Guys through in-ceiling speakers, adjust ambient and task lighting, and lower the shades to reduce glare on your computer screen. Throughout the day, the shades and lighting adjust to provide diffuse sunlight without harmful UV rays while maintaining ideal light levels.
Entertaining Friends and Relaxing with Family
Evenings may find you hosting a dinner party for friends or celebrating the end of a long week with a family movie night. Each event calls for a different backdrop, and your smart home is up to the task. When entertaining, it streams your ideal playlist, opens the West-facing motorized shades to reveal a beautiful sunset, ignites the fireplace, and adjusts the lighting throughout your home to match the occasion.
When enjoying a movie in the media room, say, “Movie time,” and the lights dim, the shades lower, the TV appears behind customized paneling, and in-ceiling speakers deliver lifelike surround sound.
At Day’s End
Your smart home creates the perfect end to a beautiful day by keeping your home safe and your family protected. A simple “Good Night” turns off the interior lights, turns on the exterior security lights, lowers the shades, turns off the AV equipment, locks the doors, and arms the alarm.
Should someone make their way to the kitchen, or the little ones need reassurance, a soft trail of lights illuminates the way.
