Not surprisingly, these are some of the first things potential homebuyers often have listed at the top of their checklists when searching for new homes. However, it can sometimes be challenging to find a fully renovated home in a tight housing market.
Schell Brothers, a homebuilder based in Delaware’s Rehoboth Beach, with offices in Richmond, VA and Nashville, TN, is a leader in innovative high-tech home features with its new HomeIQ Smart Living features, offering homeowners the lifestyle that meets all their needs .
Here are some ways that innovative smart home technologies that Schell Brothers includes in every new home can help upgrade a homeowner’s lifestyle to be more efficient and convenient for everyone in the family.
1. Create a more pleasant, healthier life experience.
A comfortable and healthy living environment is ideal in a new home to ensure that homeowners find the best housing arrangement for themselves and their families. Fortunately, Schell Brothers’ Home IQ smart living prioritizes comfort and health in the way homeowners use the technology.
With HomeIQ, every bedroom has an iDevice Instinct Switch. This allows homeowners to use Alexa, receive notifications from other Alexa devices in the house, set reminders or alarms, play music and check the weather at their leisure. Voice activation turns indoor and outdoor lights on and off and can set a night light, or users can adjust it with the remote control via the Alexa application.
Furthermore, HomeIQ monitors and regulates temperature and humidity, two things that make a home uncomfortable and potentially lead to unhealthy moisture-related problems like mold. The smart thermostats installed in the HomeIQ system, combined with variable air handlers, help the HVAC system independently reduce humidity by conveniently cycling the fan down to speed to remove moisture from the air while having a minimal effect on occupant temperature comfort. This is a huge improvement over traditional HVAC systems that simply measure and regulate temperature!
Residents can also stay up-to-date on the thermostat, as HomeIQ offers notifications about alarms and alarms, while also controlling the temperature through voice or touch control on the Alexa app.
2. Protect your family – even when you are not at home.
Home is a sanctuary where owners should be able to find a sense of relaxation and unwind from life’s daily stressors. Ensuring privacy and home protection from burglars and other unwanted visitors is an essential part of this equation.
Schell Brothers HomeiQ Smart Living features a Smart Home Command Center mounted in the kitchen of any home, allowing homeowners to take full control of their home’s security with a variety of functions directly from the screen. The technology allows users to set up facial recognition for each family member, control the security system and monitor who is at the front door with the Alarm.com IQ Panel, which includes a keyless entry system and a video doorbell.
In addition, the system offers a keyless door lock, giving owners the luxury of creating personal codes for the children and allowing quick access to those they trust. Residents can also remotely lock and unlock their front, back or garage doors from anywhere and receive notifications when someone has entered the home. The technology communicates directly to an alarm panel and command center where users can see everything they need in one place, ensuring their home security is under control.
When searching for a new home, potential buyers are looking for features they can easily use to simplify their living experience and make their daily chores, home maintenance and general lifestyle more efficient.
The Smart Home Command Center also provides convenience, allowing homeowners to set reminders, create shopping or to-do lists, use recipe books, play music, make phone calls and more. Homeowners can even talk to other family members throughout the house through the voice activation in the devices instead of running around looking for them when dinner is ready or contacting a family member if they need immediate help.
On top of it all, residents no longer have to search for their chargers. The HomeIQ system is equipped with built-in USB-C and USB-A combo outlets installed at each end of the Command Center and the rear kitchen wall for easy charging connection to the other devices in the house.
Everyone deserves a home where they can feel safe and benefit from optimal levels of convenience and comfort to ensure they have the best possible lifestyle. Once homeowners experience how high-tech innovations can improve numerous aspects of the home ownership experience, there is no turning back.
