Even though spring has only just begun, the sun is already starting to make itself felt forcefully. How can we improve ours comfort thanks to the home automation system? Control Casa allows you to interact not only with the air conditioning system, but also with the outdoor awnings. From an aesthetic point of view, awnings protect part of the home and the shutters from wear and tear due to strong sunlight, but let's see how they can also be used to make the home more comfortable.
There are various options and customizations. First of all, the module for opening and closing the curtains can communicate directly with the specification weather programming. By connecting to the online weather forecast, Control Casa will determine when it is necessary to lower or raise the awnings. By doing so, we can safely trust the home automation system without worrying about strong gusts of wind or hailstorms that could damage the awnings.
The opening and closing of the curtains can be linked to the opening and closing of the electric shutters. You can choose whether to have them both open or close or whether to open the shutters and keep the curtains closed, or any other solution.
We can choose to control the opening and closing of the awnings depending on the areas of the house. For example, we can set the opening of those in the living area and keep those in the sleeping area closed or vice versa. We can choose to carry out this operation not only based on the area, but also by programming the times and days. For example, at the weekend the times change and the home automation system changes Control Casa adapts.
A further customization choice consists in setting the functions relating to the awnings based on the Cardinal points. In this way, Control Casa lowers and raises the curtains following the movements of the sun, thus ensuring perfect use of them.
Con Control Casa which manages the awnings, it is also possible to reduce the use of the air conditioning. By shielding too strong solar rays, even inside the home the temperature is more regular and the air conditioner works less, thus exploiting the total energy efficiency with the various systems that work in synergy for us.
There always remains the possibility of manually interacting with the awnings via the web-app control panel Control Casa and check their status.
