Siepman is also seeing increasing numbers of integrated
systems installed in cottages, which means cottage own-
ers save time driving out to check on their property in
the off season, and receive instant warnings if anything
appears unusual.
"It simplifies your life a little bit," Siepman says. "It also
provides peace of mind, knowing that you can check in
at any time."
even if you're not travelling, there are benefits. people
who live alone will love having the ability to switch on
lights before they pull into the driveway, or turn up the
heat if the day turns unexpectedly cold.
rosenberg and Siepman say most people learn to use the
systems quickly and easily. the technology is extremely
user-friendly and the cost has decreased dramatically
since the technology first became available.
new homes are often pre-wired to accommodate inte-
grated systems, and they can be retrofitted into existing
homes.
both rosenberg and Siepman stress that integrated
home systems can be customized to suit individual pref-
erences. meet with a consultant who will recommend a
system that will meet your needs based on your lifestyle.
