Would you
like complete control over your homes’ atmosphere
with the push of a button? How about conserving
energy at the same time? With today’s advanced
technology and lighting control systems it’s
easy to have it all while simplifying your life.
Lighting control systems in NJ and NY allow you
to adjust both natural and man-made light in your
space to create the perfect atmosphere time and
time again. Unlike standard dimmers and light switches
(NYC), lighting control systems are connected either
through wires or wirelessly to a central commend
center. In most cases there is a main keypad in
each room that will command each lighting zone.
This helps in reducing wall clutter as well as
allowing homeowners to accent their home design
with different architectural and design finishes
for their wall plates.
Integrated light control systems usually offer
a master keypad next to the main door to control
the entire house or office. This master keypad
might include a “Welcome Home” mode,
which will illuminate the pathway and entrance
to your home as well as the hallways leading to
your room of choice. This master keypad should
also have an “Away” button that will
shut off all the lights and roll down the window
shades on your way out the door.
Imagine the possibilities: You are entertaining
guests and standing in the kitchen area, chatting
while having some wine. You press the “Entertain” button
on the kitchen keypad. The overhead lights dim
and the backsplash lights engage to create a soft
and diffused lighting mood.
Then you move to the dining room. Once again you
hit the “Entertain” button on the dining
room keypad. The NYC Motorized
Curtains draw closed,
providing a sense of privacy while overhead lights
dim and the chandelier light creates a warm hospitable
feeling. After diner you move into the den to watch
a movie. As you and your guests make yourselves
comfortable on the couch, you hit the “Movie” button
on the wireless table-top keypad; the Automated
Window Shades (NJ) roll down. The front lights
turn off, and the rear lights dim softly to create
an optimal viewing environment.
Once the feature is complete, your well-impressed
guests depart. As bedtime approaches, you press
the “Good Night” on a the keypad and
all the lights go down—save the hallways
and bathrooms to give late-night snackers a safe
path to the kitchen come midnight.
In addition to the features above, certain lighting
control systems such as Home Works by Lutron will
record your weekly lighting activities. Simply
play back this recording while you’re on
vacation for added security.
While Home Works by Lutron is more appropriate
for houses and offices with a large space, Radio
RA by Lutron is the product of choice for city
apartments and condos. Radio RA is 90% wireless
and can be retrofit for any existing lighting design
and electric scheme, making it ideal for those
of us who want to avoid running wires through their
existing walls.
Lighting control and lighting design systems are
also ideal for office and commercial spaces, where
gaining control over the level of light throughout
the day can be highly desired. Installing a lighting
control system in your office allows you to integrate
the man-made light controllers with automated NYC
motorized window shades and blinds which regulate
the natural sunlight. Integrating both light sources
allows you to maintain a consistent level of light
throughout the day for a healthier and more pleasant
working environment while reducing energy consumption.
Unique Window Treatments is committed to designing
and installing the system best suited to your life
style and needs. Unique will work around your schedule
to guide you through the infinite possibilities.
