Somfy Home Automation, with its advanced features and innovation, claims to transform homes into havens of well-being and safety.
“While Somfy Home Automation means security, living comfort and energy savings, it also ensures you get the most out of your electric gates, roller shutters, electric garage doors and electric projector screen,” says a company spokesman.
He says the system is all about security. “With it, you can close all your home’s openings in one simple click. This centralised solution ensures you’ll never forget a window open. It also features presence simulation to control your house’s systems as if it were occupied.”
One of the main features of the Somfy Home Automation is that it delivers feedback in real time. This checks the correct execution of an order and the status of each electric gate, roller shutter, electric garage door and electric projector screen (open/closed, on/off).
For added convenience, the equipment can be controlled and monitored remotely, ensuring nothing has been forgotten and empowering households with the means to take action if needed.
“Somfy Home Automation embodies living comfort. Residents can free themselves from repetitive everyday tasks like opening and closing shutters.
“With a single movement, privacy can be protected, annoying reflections eliminated, and a room or the entire house ventilated. It allows you to create your favourite ambiance and change the overall feel of your home in a few clicks, and make your home or office feel perfect,” states the spokesman.
Another feature of the system is energy conservation. “By automating the opening and closing of roller shutters and solar protections, you improve the insulation of your home. This means less need for heating in winter and cooling in summer,” he concludes.
Depending on the installation, different levels of automation can be achieved, from simple to more complete, to suit the home owner’s lifestyle.
Somfy is claimed to be the world’s leading manufacturer of specialised motors and control systems for retractable awnings, rolling shutters, interior shades, blinds, projection screens and other lift-up applications for the home.
