Set the Lights for Every Time of Day
Our internal clocks—or circadian rhythm—are regulated by the sun’s patterns across the sky. But when we spend most of our time under artificial lighting at work and home, we’re prone to irritability, fatigue, and even headaches. That’s where tunable light can help. Smart LED bulbs alter their color temperature and brightness throughout the day to mimic the sun rising and setting, adding comfort to your home.
Crestron systems are compatible with Ketra, the custom-made tunable lighting manufacturer. Captivate is one of the few Ketra providers in Texas, and with their Natural Light fixtures, you’ll be able to create scenes and schedules right from your Crestron app. With bright lights in the morning, you’ll feel energized to seize the day. Dim, amber-hued lights in the evening prepare your mind to rest and start producing melatonin, so you’ll sleep better.
Cut Out Small Tasks to Reduce Stress
If you’re like most people, your to-do list feels endless and there’s never enough time in the day. Although tasks like lowering the blinds, adjusting a thermostat, and locking your doors don’t take too much time, a long list of tiny tasks can pile up to an overwhelming amount. Creston takes those to-dos off your shoulders.
With a scene like “Good Morning” or “Leave Home,” in one press of a button, you can adjust your lights, speakers, security system, thermostat, and motorized shades. As you grab your keys and jacket to head out the door, your lights will turn off, the thermostat will power down, doors will lock, and the security system will activate with one input on the app or a voice command. No more running around in a rush—Creston has it!
Check on Home Anytime
Another way Crestron Home relieves homeowners of stress is the security aspect of home automation. Whether you left the kids at home while at work or you’re away on vacation, you’ll never have to worry about the state of your house again. Remotely access security cameras or check the status of locks and alarms. If you notice that the garage was accidentally left unlocked, secure it right from your smartphone. Daily life is much easier to manage with a smart system on your side.
