The great thing about summer is that it’s the season for outdoor barbecues, having guests come over and generally just enjoying the outdoors. And with smart home technology, you can enjoy your outdoors even more, especially if you invest in the following enhancements:
Outdoor Entertainment System
Setting up the home stereo for your backyard party can be cumbersome. While you can buy those little wireless speakers designed for phones, they would sound tiny in a backyard full of people. The solution is a set of wireless speakers for home. They’re easy to install, virtually invisible and loud enough for a large crowd. You can control the music from anywhere in the house, use it as a P.A. or hook it up with an outdoor projector for a drive-in movie experience.
Outdoor Lighting
Smart outdoor lighting can be used for anything; as motion-controlled security lighting, mood lighting for romantic patio dinners or dynamic lighting for backyard parties. You can control the lighting from your compatible smartphone, including controlling the dimness. You can also hook the dimmer with a sensor that synchronizes the lighting with the music for that synchronized strobe effect.
Automated Awnings
Speaking of romantic dinners, you’ll want to make it as perfect as possible and not let a little summer shower ruin it. Automated awnings practically guarantee that you’ll enjoy staying at your patio without fear of sudden weather changes.
Smart Hot Tubs
Ever wish you can just plop into a waiting hot tub after a hard day’s work? With smart hot tubs, you can. Simply remotely turn on your tub, and it’s ready for you when you arrive. In addition to temperature control, you can also choose to have it hooked up with your home lighting control installation for some relaxing mood lighting.
Smart Grills
A summer gathering wouldn’t be complete without a grill. With smart grills, you can focus on food preparation instead of spending a lot of time getting your heat zones just right. Smart thermometers let you impress your friends by nailing that perfect medium rare every time. And if you prefer to use propane-fueled grilles, a smart propane detector can alert you if you’re running low. With smart home technology, you can enjoy the outdoors without worries.
