Modern Day Jeeves
Imagine waking up to the sound of your favorite tune slowly increasing in volume while your blinds gently reveal the morning light. Your night lights fade out while the hallway lights come on, leading you to your bathroom that has been cooling down to your preferred temperature. The TV comes to life updating you on what has been happening while you slept. After getting dressed, you walk over to your open kitchen led by the smell of freshly brewed coffee, light classical music, just the right room temperature and lighting to start your day.
The experience described is one of many that can be created with the Savant Pro home automation solution. This is a moment in life that has been designed specifically for the needs of the homeowner. The modern home today is much more than just shelter but a sanctuary that is meant to please and serve its master. It is a recognition that experiences within the home must also be designed. The heart of it is not only about technology but about making a home a home for each and every resident.
The way the system works is that it is centered on a hub (like a WiFi router) that talks to all the items that you would like to control such as your lighting, air conditioning, shades, audio, video and security. The hub is then controlled through either a Savant Smart Remote that is a beautifully designed touch-screen device with voice command and has a very simple user interface (unlike the remotes of the past), or via the Savant app on your iPhone or iPad. Savant has also recently launched a line of wall-mounted touch screen control units that can be used like light switches in each room but has access to the full controls of the hub.

Savant was founded in 2005 with the goal of delivering the best experience in home automation. They have achieved this through their inventiveness, ease of use and creating products that are future proof so that customers can enjoy their systems for many years to come. They were also the first to recognize the influence of mobile and have embraced this revolution to take the convenience of home automation outside the home wherever the owner may choose. All of this has led the company to be the home automation brand of choice for the most luxurious homes, castles and even yachts.
