At Home in Berks December 2017 - 13

Consumers can gain precision control of daylight
through affordable, battery-powered shades, and
wireless or app-based remote controls. For example, Lutron's Caséta Smart bridge technology offers
home-automation and remote access through the
simple app and integration with other popular home
control products.

Smart technologies offer the advantage of being wireless
and portable, allowing customers to take the technology
with them when they move to a new apartment, or sell their
homes. Wireless systems make it easier to relocate technology
without disrupting the existing environment.
Keep in mind that whether consumers are living in a 400
square foot rental property or a 50,000 square foot retreat,
they will want the technology in their homes to be useful and
beneficial, but also beautiful. It's critical to select products
that are technologically complex and robust, but are also easy
to use, elegant and simple to install. Keeping up with expectations means delivering connected home systems that are
approachable and appealing to the broadest possible market.
The connected home market is about meeting consumers'
expectations, simplifying their lives, and enhancing convenience. Smart phones are becoming our hand-held computers,
every day communication devices, new-age encyclopedias,

and entertainment centers - and the more engrained they become
in everyday life, the greater the opportunity for the entire connected home industry.
Work with distributors who put the
customer first.
Every day there are new companies entering the connected
home market. Consumers will want to look for distributors that
sell products backed by 24/7 manufacturer technical support and
that make training a priority. Reduce risk by working with companies committed to serving their customers. Fromm is especially
proud of its 59-year history of service innovation, quality, and
service.

"The AccuVent baffles I
selected definitely made
the job easier. They don't
rot, and once stapled in
place, aren't going to
move."
