05 Apr How To Transform Your Home Into A Technological Paradise
Perhaps you are a self-confessed technology obsessive, who always ensures they have the latest make of smartphone, the most up-to-date television set and a state-of-the-art laptop which you are constantly ensuring is running as fast as possible?
Conversely, maybe, you have up until particularly recently, chosen or simply never gotten round to modernizing the way you operate, both in a personal and a professional capacity. Either way, continue reading to learn how to transform your home into a technological paradise.
Invest In Smart Lights
One of the most aesthetically spectacular ways to substantially boost the technological prowess of your home is to invest in some, surprisingly more affordable than you may think, smart lights.
Smart lights are essentially lightbulbs and light strips which are controlled by your smart phone or tablet and each individual light can be customized to omit a virtually limitless number of different colors, shades and tones.
Additionally, most quality smart lighting packages also come with various pre-set options around a theme; for example, if you are holding a party in your home, you can choose a pre-set party light setting which will automatically change with the music you play.
Upgrade Your Broadband & Wi-Fi
If you consider each technological device and piece of equipment as a different organ of the body that is your house, then the lifeline that runs through each room, like blood through the veins, is the Wi-Fi connection.
Therefore, it is logical to invest time and a small amount of money in researching the best way to improve the strength, quality and overall speed of your broadband connection. Utah Broadband’s home internet service will ensure that not only will you receive the optimum levels of broadband service but will be afforded the highest levels of customization options possible as well as free installation.
CCTV Doorbells
A fairly recent invention in the technology world that will not only raise the ‘street tech-cred’ of your home but also serve to greatly enhance you and your family’s safety and security, is that of the CCTV doorbell.
Similar to smart lighting systems, CCTV doorbells are linked to your smartphone or other smart device and essentially afford you the luxury of seeing your home, either in the backyard, out the front or both, wherever you are, even if you are out of state or even overseas.
Motion Sensor Power Strips
Another incredibly new yet already overwhelmingly popular addition to the home of the most tech-savvy residents is that of one or more motion sensor power strips.
Basically, motion sensor power strips work by shutting off those devices in and around your home which have been left switched on and/or on standby for a certain amount of time, chosen by you, when not in use. Motion sensor power strips can save an individual resident a large amount of money, especially if you install more than one power strip throughout your property.
Automatic Water Shutoff Technology
Finally, the fifth most impressive piece of technology that will not only make your home seem as if you are living on a ship from Star Trek but will also serve to save you a substantial amount of money as well, is that of automatic water shutoff technology.
Automatic water shutoff technology is especially beneficial to those people who not only are looking to save money on their utility bills each month, but are also conscious of and actively trying to reduce their individual carbon footprint as essentially after installing such a device, you will only use the water that you need.
