Smart homes provide control of your home’s environment and functionality at the touch of a button or at the sound of your voice. Along with energy efficiency and modern design, ABD homes come equipped with an RA2 Select hub by Lutron as a standard feature. This enables you to control your home’s lighting, shades, audio, and more at the touch of a button using a remote, keypad, or the Lutron app on your phone. Now that’s smart!

Voice control simplifies home automation by making it hands-free: no more fumbling around to find the switches for lights, climate, music, security, and more. Lutron home automation integrates easily with Amazon Alexa, Apple HomeKit, Google Assistant, Honeywell Wifi Thermostats, Logitech Harmony, Samsung SmartThings, and Sonos smart home brands. Lutron utilizes Clear Connect RF Technology so it is free from interference from other frequency
bands.  

Here are a few benefits you can expect from your Lutron home system:

Lutron is very easy to control and can be accessed on a user friendly phone app from anywhere in the world.

You control the brightness or dimness of your lighting and your automatic shades from one place.

You can set your lighting and shades to adjust when you enter or leave a room.

Lutron’s LED+ advanced technology offers the very best LED lighting for dimming plus your other preferred bulb options.

The Lutron system enables you to set your lighting and shades to a specific schedule for each day.

Lutron’s Smart Away security feature offers the ability to set various lights to turn on and off when you are away so it appears you are at home.

The app will notify you if you left lights on at home unintentionally and gives you the ability to turn them off from anywhere.

Music – A variety of music sources/streaming services can be integrated by Lutron. Create your own playlists and have them stream when you want.

Thermostat – Save energy and have total comfort in your home by scheduling and setting the temperature however you like it, whenever you like it.

Home security system – Have the peace of mind that comes from being able to access the controls for your security system including cameras.

Garage door – This can be opened or closed for your convenience and to ensure the security of your home.

A Lutron system is very flexible and can be used in many different ways, making ABD built homes even better for you and your family. Along with other features that ease the transition of aging in place, a voice activated smart home makes difficult tasks easier for the older generations. It also alleviates the stress of lights left on by children, battles for thermostat control, and time wasted finding the perfect shade adjustment. It is estimated that more than half of all new homes will be automated using voice command technology this year – ABD and their partnership with Lutron are already there.
