Four Amazing Ways To Add Technology To Your Home

In the decades since the introduction of the internet and personal computers, we have experienced a sea change in the way we access information, handle personal security, communicate with others and use conveniences to go about our day. Advances in computer micro miniaturization helped integrate technology into virtually every aspect of our lives. Though we are not yet living like The Jetsons; traveling via hover crafts and relegating chores to robots, there are splendid technological advances within reach. Many of these cutting edge breakthroughs can make your home fantastically post-modern.

Home security systems employ technology to enhance the quality of life and promote safety and peace of mind. There are four amazing benefits to adding Vivint Home Automation technology in your home:

1. Safety

From home surveillance to electronic door locks to home healthcare, you can now benefit from unprecedented levels of security. Infrared technology can detect motion in and around your home. Elder care is enhanced with the use of panic pendants that alert medical personnel in the event of a healthcare emergency. Wireless technology means intruders cannot compromise the system simply by cutting wires; making your home security virtually foolproof.

2. Going Green

Smart thermostats and energy saving components provide opportunities to reduce energy and save on heating and cooling bills. Fuel efficiency is more than just a nod to the green movement; thoughtful conservation equals smart consumerism and puts money back into your pocket.

3. Convenience with a Capital C

Managing home locks, lights and small appliances brings home convenience to another level. If you are able to unlock the door remotely for occupants and visitors, turn off appliances which were erroneously left on, and set lights to turn on and off at random intervals, you are truly the master of your castle. (The regularity of most timers can be detected by would-be intruders who observe the home for a period of time.)

4. Information at a Touch

Weather alerts, especially those that impact your home and safety, are available at the touch of a button. Recent weather events are a reminder that Mother Nature is not to be trifled with. Alerts about local inclement weather can help you and your family properly prepare if a storm or tornado is imminent.

There is no doubt that technology can improve our lives immeasurably. Home security by Vivint provides a huge umbrella of worthwhile conveniences. Though creature comforts are great; safety and peace of mind are priceless.
