1. Easy Control

With traditional blinds, you need to physically open and close them, through a cord or by tugging on the shade. With motorized shades, however, you can open and close them at the touch of a button or on your phone. Your shades will come with a wall panel that’ll allow you to open and close them as needed. Plus, your shades will move in unison, resulting in a uniform look.

You can also control your shades through your home automation dashboard and app. From there, you can control the shades throughout your entire home all at once. It even lets you control your shades remotely, for when you are away from home but forgot to shut a blind.

2. Regulate Temperature and Light

Nothing runs up your utility bill like your HVAC system. Motorized shades can actually help keep that bill down by helping strike a balance between maintaining temperature and natural light. Lutron shades can open to fill your home with beautiful natural light, boosting your mood and well-being.

However, an open shade can also let in warm or cold air, which will force your HVAC unit to work overtime. To prevent this, you can set your shades on a timer so that they never stay open for too long. When they’re closed they’ll provide the necessary insulation to maintain your home’s temperature. You can also program them close whenever you leave the home.

3. Automate Your Routine

Imagine waking up to your blinds rising, letting sunlight in to wake you up naturally. When you leave for the day, they close to protect your home while you’re gone. As you return home, they open again, letting in the last of the afternoon sun, but close by nighttime to give you the privacy you need to relax.

All of this and more is possible by automating your shades to match your routine. You can set them on timers to open and close throughout the day when you need them. Additionally, you can integrate them with other technologies, such as lights and locks, to create scenes in your home. This way your home is always set the way you need it.
