Spring is already around the corner, and summer will be here before we know it, which means now is the best time to get your smart home in Ladue, MO, ready for the heat. Keep in mind that a thermostat alone won’t do. After all, your home is a big place, and you are not always there to keep an eye on the temperature.

In this article, we will explore how an integrated climate control system keeps your home at the perfect temperature through the summer, no matter where in the world you happen to be.

How About That Smart Thermostat?

At Elite, we partner with dozens of industry-leading brands to offer our clients the latest home automation solutions. From whole-home audio to access control and surveillance, every technology system you own should be easy to operate remotely. Climate control is no exception. 

A Crestron smart thermostat, such as the DIN-THSTAT, regulates heating, cooling, and relative humidity through an array of built-in sensors. It also controls radiant floor heat and heat pump HVAC systems and seamlessly integrates with other Crestron and third-party products. Once we are done programming your thermostat, it will be automated to turn on and off depending on a wide range of conditions and readings from other smart devices. 

Motorized Shades Are Here to Help!

By integrating the thermostat with motorized window treatments around your home, we can program the shades to roll down right as the AC kicks into gear. We could also program shades on a seasonal schedule to roll up and down depending on exterior light conditions. To minimize the impact of heat through the spring and summer, we recommend honeycomb shades for optimal insulation. 

Don't Forget Integrated Lighting Control

If you are like most homeowners in Ladue, chances are your place will be empty for at least a few months this year. That’s perfectly fine, but it begs the question of how to keep your home running smoothly in your absence. With a smart lighting control system, we can program every switch and fixture for either optimal performance or energy efficiency, and switching from one to the other would be as easy as tapping on your phone. 

Smart home control is about comfort, convenience, and efficiency, all of which will be put to the test as the months ahead get increasingly warmer. Contact us today so we can have your place ready in time for spring!
