SmartLabs, Inc. announces that INSTEON® lighting and appliance controls have been selected as the automation solution for the 2008 Southern Show Home, on display at Southeast Building Conference (SEBC) in Orlando, Florida July 30th through August 3rd, 2008.
The 2008 Southern Show Home is a project headed up by the James M. Krantz Corporation to design and build a home that will showcase inventive architecture and interior design, setting the standard of contemporary living for the Southern lifestyle. The two-story home has over 6,000 square feet of space full of modern technology that will be on display to the public at the SEBC.
INSTEON was specifically selected as a low-cost automation solution that will link home systems together, such as lighting, security, comfort control, electronics, appliances and safety sensors for remote energy management and control. The build will incorporate approximately 100 INSTEON devices that will communicate with each other over power lines in the home and via radio frequency. This communication creates a network that will allow for systems to operate in harmony, offering the capability to press a single button on an INSTEON KeypadLinc to simultaneously dim a light, turn on an overhead fan, initiate audio video equipment and set the temperature on the thermostat. According to Smarthome National Trainer Steve Lee, “We have teamed up with the 2008 Southern Show Home to showcase INSTEON as an energy-efficient, functional and reliable home automation solution that people can afford.”
SmartLabs is dedicated to supplying consumers with INSTEON technology that is affordable, simple for the homeowner to install and reliable. Additionally, INSTEON home automation devices are energy efficient, environmentally friendly, convenient and fun to use. Ultimately, INSTEON makes home control readily available for adoption by everyone.
