What smart technology exists for my outdoor space? Smart
technology is taking over every room in the home, from smart refrigerators in
the kitchen to smart mirrors in the bath. Though quite a bit of this technology
exists for indoor use, there is also a diverse range of gadgets designed for use outdoors, like a smart pergolas. What smart features are
homeowners incorporating into their outdoor spaces as we head into 2020?
Smart Pergolas
StruXure
louvered roof systems feature app-driven iLouver operation,
allowing you to enjoy your outdoor space in comfort year-round, in any weather.
●
Open or close the louvers on your residential pergola on
schedule or on-demand, choosing between 4 pre-set positions.
●
Adjust settings to let
the sunshine inside in the winter, or deflect the sun’s rays in the summer, reducing air conditioning costs in your
home.
●
Ensure comfortable,
dry furnishings every day with rain
sensing technology, programming your pergola to adjust to changing weather
conditions.
●
Rest assured with “hurricane mode,” which overrides all
functions to allow for the free flow of air through louvers in extremely windy,
hurricane-like conditions.
Smart Grill &
Gadgets
Cook in comfort beneath your pergola on a smart grill,
enjoying your favorite beverage while waiting for your grill to inform you when
your favorite foods need attention. Smart grills from top brands such as Weber
and Napoleon alert you when it’s time for flipping and when food has reached
its desired temperature, allowing you to spend more time relaxing and less time
prodding barbecue.
Smart Fire Pit
Including a fire pit as part of the pergola design is one of
our most frequent outdoor living requests. Smart, mobile device operable fire
features such as the BioLite wood and coal-burning pit provides cozy warmth,
igniting in less than 30-seconds. Many are multifunctional, providing the
ambiance of fire alongside cooking capabilities.
Smart Sprinkler
Controllers
Control your backyard water use with a smart sprinkler
controller addition. Products such as the Rachio 3 and Elgato Eve Aqua help
homeowners reduce water use, providing irrigation based on weather or
app-controlled watering schedule.
Smart Lawn Mowers
If you dread lawn maintenance or have better things to do
than push around a gas-powered mower after-hours, a smart mower such as the Husqvarna
Automower or Worx Landroid may be for you. These
battery-powered, GPS and Wi-Fi-enabled devices are easily operated via your
smartphone and work similarly to robotic vacuums, allowing you to conveniently
schedule maintenance duties and cross lawn care off your “honey-do” list.
Smart Spotlight &
Security Cam
Keep your backyard secure with a smart spotlight and
security camera combination, such as the battery-powered Ring spotlight with
built-in camera and siren.
Smart Padlock
Gate, shed, or storage access issues? Bluetooth padlocks
such as the Master Lock 4401DLH allow for remote operation, granting access to
welcome guests on-demand.
