New generation energy efficiency
Intelligent glazing with electrochromic coating adapts to the climatic conditions of St. Albert. The system analyzes data from local weather services and automatically adjusts the operating mode of the windows. In conditions of frequent temperature fluctuations, this technology allows maintaining a comfortable microclimate with minimal energy consumption.
Security and access control
Smart windows are equipped with breakage and unauthorized opening sensors. When an alarm is triggered, the system instantly notifies the owner and the local security service. The mechanisms are equipped with an automatic locking system that is activated when leaving the house.
The most important pros of smart glazing:
- Reduction of heating and air conditioning costs by up to 47%.
- Automatic ventilation based on CO2 levels.
- Burglary protection according to international security standards.
- Integration with popular smart home systems.
- Remote control via a secure mobile app.
Peculiarities of installation of smart systems
The installation process includes laying low-current cables and setting up controllers. Specialists calibrate sensors and synchronize all elements of the system. Each window receives a unique identifier in the smart home network, which ensures precise climate control in each room.
Adaptation to local climate
The intelligent system takes into account the specific climate of St. Albert with its sharp temperature changes and frequent winds. Albert climate with its sharp temperature fluctuations and frequent winds. When unfavorable weather conditions approach, the windows automatically switch to the protective mode. The system independently regulates the level of natural ventilation, maintaining a comfortable microclimate.
Economic efficiency
Calculations for St. Albert homes show that the investment in smart glazing pays for itself in reduced climate control costs. Automated ventilation significantly reduces the load on the air conditioning system. Intelligent lighting control reduces artificial lighting costs.
Development prospects
