Are you considering getting automated blinds but aren’t sure whether they are suitable for your home? Thanks to technological advancements, home automation products like motorised blinds are more accessible than ever before. They are easy to install and don’t require an electrician in most cases. Nothing needs to be special about your home in order to be able to have automated blinds in place.
State of the art technology you can enjoy includes Qmotion, which is designed to give you remote control of your battery powered roller blinds using a smartphone or remote. Below are some of the key benefits you can enjoy when you install an automated blind system.
Convenience
The most common reason why people want to get automated blinds installed is for the convenience. Many people are attracted to technological innovations that allow them to eliminate the hassle of doing a repetitive task, whether it’s washing the dishes, cleaning the floor or closing blinds. This is especially true when blinds are in high up or hard to reach places.
Energy Efficiency
You might think installing electric blinds will increase the amount of energy you use, but you can actually offset that by maximising your home’s ability to keep outside temperatures from entering.
Your automated blinds can be configured to open on windows that are receiving sunlight to let in heat during winter, and close ones that aren’t to prevent heat escaping. Of course, you can configure this to do the opposite in summer. This ultimately reduces your energy bills and environmental footprint.
Safety and Style
Cordless technology has been a selling point for a long time. People like a cordless mouse for a tidier work desk and cordless vacuum cleaners to prevent tangles and trips. For the same reason, people like to eliminate the cords on their blinds. It removes the hassle of manual pulling them up and down, as well as creating a cleaner look to the window, especially on very large windows.
Cords used to operate traditional blinds can be a hazard to children and pets who can choke on them. By getting blinds that are free of cords and chains, you can ensure a safer home for your young and four legged members of the family.
