Top 3 Reasons to Install PowerView Automation
Keeping up with every new smart home product that comes to the market can be challenging. Now, there’s everything from smart thermostats, smart lights, smart plugs; you name it! The Shade Shop Maine has a fantastic way to upgrade your home with the most functional motorized window treatment solution to date: PowerView Automation. This motorization option can be installed on a wide variety of custom Hunter Douglas window treatments.
What is PowerView Automation?
For all the smart home technology out there, the experts at Hunter Douglas® kept it pretty simple: PowerView® Automation is a motorized window customization that makes 100% hands-free operation possible for your window treatments. The control system is installed on each window treatment and controlled via the Pebble® Remote Control or the PowerView® app on your smart device.
Even better, you can integrate the PowerView® Automation system with your smart home hub and opt-in to voice control. That means that in addition to being able to control your window treatments with a remote or the app, you can simply call out: “Hey Google, close the living room blinds!”
1: Ease of Use
According to eMarketer, nearly 50% of U.S. homes own at least one smart home device as of 2022, and that number will go up in the next few years as product lines expand for big tech players like Google, Apple, and Amazon. Prices for smart home devices such as the Amazon Echo and Google Nest continue to get cheaper every year; the more smart home devices you have in your household, the easier it is to control your home’s temperature, lights, and even door lock from your smartphone.
This is why Hunter Douglas wanted to create a window treatment operating system that easily integrates with existing smart home hubs. They wanted to make it easy for homeowners to add their window treatments to their list of app- and voice-controlled home devices. PowerView Automation makes it easy to set up scenes in your home, utilize voice commands, and even set schedules so that your window treatments can work as easily and seamlessly as possible with the rest of your home.
2: Added Safety
In addition to being easy to use, the ability to control your window treatments remotely adds a great benefit of safety to your household. Whether you have little ones, pets, or you frequently travel, being able to control your window treatments being open or closed both while you’re at home and away is a huge plus.
You can easily set up a schedule to open up your blinds to wake up the kiddos naturally when it’s time to get up for school and close them with ease if you’ve already left for the day and accidentally left the shades open. Even better, when you’re out of town, you can manually open and close certain rooms to create a sense of movement in your home to deter unwanted eyes from thinking your home has been left alone for a few days.
3: Energy Savings
If your home has an existing smart home system with a smart thermostat, you’ll really get the most bang for your buck with PowerView®. When integrated with your smart home thermostat, you can set your shades to open or close if your internal temperature has surpassed a certain point. That means extra savings on your monthly utilities and assurance that your home will stay at your ideal temperature.
