The advancements in home technology have made it easier than ever before to keep you and your family members protected. In addition, ensuring your home is properly protected from damage, keeping utility costs down and simply living in a more relaxed manner has never been this easy. If you are looking for the best smart technology available today in order to ensure your home is well protected and life is made as easy as possible, consider these five trending smart home essentials.
Security Camera
It is incredibly important to have your home properly protected from intruders, especially if you have loved ones living with you. The fact of the matter is floodlights and easy to avoid alarms systems may not be enough to keep a break-in from happening. Instead, try using smart home security cameras to help you keep your home safe. From using the Nest Home Video Doorbell to utilizing smart window sensors, you can sleep better at night knowing your home is well protected.
Smart Light Bulbs
Using smart light bulbs is a great way to ensure your utility bill is as low as possible each month. They allow you to set timers to control exactly when they are on, control the level of lighting and turn them on and off through your smartphone. In fact, you can even purchase smart light bulbs that work on a sensor, so they only run when there is someone in the room. Regardless of the exact way you choose to utilize them, purchasing smart light bulbs such as the Philips Hue White LED Starter Kit can be incredibly useful.
Smart Flood Sensor
A smart flood sensor can detect a leak in your home and alert you of the issue before damage occurs. One of the worst things that can happen to a home is water damage, which can destroy the floors and lead to incredibly costly repairs. By having a flood sensor installed, however, you can avoid damage to your home and sleep well you know your home is always protected, especially in the moments you and your family may be away for several days.
Robot Vacuum
Perhaps a robot vacuum is not a necessity, but it is certainly a useful technology item to have. The days of living with dirty floors and having to constantly vacuum and sweep all of the time are over, and you can now have a robot vacuum do the job for you. There are several popular and trusted brand names out there to choose from, perhaps most notably the Roomba by iRobot.
Remote Control Shades
Remote control shades are not a necessity either, but they are a great way to take advantage of the advancements in technology. Whether you have indoor plants that need to get sunlight for several hours each day or you forget to close the blinds often before leaving for work, remote control shades can be incredibly useful and even help you save money on utility costs each month.
