Anticipates Your Needs 

Imagine waking to the gentle rays of the sun illuminating your room, all without having to leave the comfort of your bed. Motorized shades can be scheduled to activate according to your routine, so window shades open to start your day, then close as you leave for work. By the time you return, they’ll open to let in the afternoon light, then close again for nighttime privacy. You won’t have to lift a finger! 

 

Live More Efficiently 

Most of us are increasingly conscious of our home energy consumption, and thankfully, motorized shades can help. During the scorching Miami summers, automated shades can be programmed to lower during the hottest parts of the day, preventing excess heat from entering your home. You’ll automatically reduce the load on your air conditioning system. 

Motorized shades can also prevent your home’s furnishings and artwork from fading in the sun. Light sensors cue shades to lower, blocking harmful UV rays and preventing colors from fading, thus extending the lifespan of your furniture, rugs, and décor. 

 

Seamless Integration into Your Smart Home Ecosystem

One of the hallmarks of a modern smart home is the ability of its components to work seamlessly together. Motorized shades are no exception. They effortlessly integrate with your existing smart home ecosystem, whether that includes lighting, thermostats, or security systems. Imagine creating "scenes" where your shades automatically adjust, along with your lights and temperature, to suit various activities throughout the day—from waking up to winding down.
