Safety and Security

While the holidays are meant to be a joyous time to spend with loved ones, they can also come with stress and worry that your family and home are left vulnerable to break-ins. That’s why upgraded security for your space is crucial.

Connected security cameras let you check in on your home no matter where you are in the world. Monitor and watch footage right from your smartphone, so you can maintain peace of mind whether you’re about to go to sleep in your own bed or are across the country with family.

Set up an “away” scene on your Savant system that keeps your motorized shades and lighting control operating at different intervals throughout the day while you’re gone, making it appear as though you never left. This will prevent burglaries as your home will seem occupied.

Energy Management

If you’re having many guests over for a holiday event or party, you might worry lights throughout your whole home will get left on and waste energy. But with installed motion sensors in every area, you won’t have to worry about running after everyone and turning off switches. The sensors will detect when a person has entered or left a room and respond accordingly.

Set a timer for how long after a person has exited a space, and the lights will then slowly dim and shut off afterward, keeping an unoccupied room from wasting energy. Depending on the mood of the room, or even as you eat, dimming lights can create ambiance while also significantly saving energy.

Motorized shades throughout your property can also insulate your home and stop your HVAC system from overworking to accommodate the internal temperature. Connect motorized shades with your smart thermostats to save even more energy and help lower your monthly bills.

Better yet, monitor your energy consumption with Savant’s Breaker Companion energy control modules. Access this technology right from your Savant Pro App, manage energy loads, and adjust with ease to make sure your home’s energy consumption is efficient as possible.

Holidays with Convenience and Luxury

Smart home control lets you experience the holiday season like never before. With smart automation and AV throughout your home, you can host a holiday for everyone to remember.

Elevate your home entertainment with multi-room audio-video. Play melodic, inviting tunes as everyone arrives at the front door and keep the music playing subtly in the background as your guests dine and converse over a meal. Set your smart thermostat at a comfortable temperature and dim your lights to create a cozy atmosphere.

After dinner, reveal hidden TV screens and play a classic holiday film in your media room while the kids enjoy their own movie in the basement. Control and manage your media in every room from just one smart device.

Once everyone has left, you can shut off all your entertainment and lights, lock your doors, and more with just a tap of a button. It’s that easy.
