Smart Technology for Modular Homes

Some people assume it isn't possible to incorporate smart technologies into modular homes, but this is simply not the case. Any type of smart technology available in today's housing market can absolutely be incorporated into the design of a luxury modular home. In fact, there are many good reasons as to why homeowners should consider investing in smart technologies, including saving on energy costs and increasing home and personal safety. In this post, we will outline just a few of the ways in which smart technologies can benefit home ownership.

Personal Safety


If you have children, wouldn't it help give you peace of mind to know they arrived home safely after school? With smart technologies, it's easy. Simply view them walking in the door of your home from a live feed, viewable on your smart phone. Or how about checking on your pets and interacting with them when you're away from home? Do you wonder after you leave the house whether you shut off your clothes iron or your coffee brewer? With smart technologies, it is possible to monitor everyday appliances in your home to ensure they are properly turned off.

Saving on Energy Costs

Smart technologies have come a long way from the days of programmable thermostats. Smart homes incorporate all the factors that affect energy consumption including current temperatures, blinds throughout the home, and air conditioning use. Smart homes can continually monitor and adjust the components affecting the energy consumption of your home while you are away to maximise energy savings, thus lowering costs.

Personal Comfort

With smart technologies, it's easy to prepare your home in advance for your arrival. You can turn on the lights before you arrive home, so you don't have to fumble around in the dark for a light switch or leave a light on all day while you are at work. If you are unexpectedly late, you can postpone turning on your home's heating or cooling system with the touch of a button on your smart phone. You can also program your lighting system to give the impression someone is home even if that is not the case, to discourage break-ins and theft.
