Benefits of PowerView® Automation

The great thing about innovative minds is that they are always searching for the best new thing. That is why we have air conditioning, electric cars, and flat-screen HD televisions that let us feel like we are right there at the big game. Of course, such advancements can also be seen right at your windows. In the past, we used to have to rely on finicky cords to adjust our window treatments. These cords also posed a tangling hazard for those who have small children or pets. Fortunately, Hunter Douglas offers an innovative system that eliminates cords all together while providing benefits that you will love. Read on to discover the many benefits of generation three of our award-winning PowerView® Automation today!

Benefit 1: Reduced Energy Usage

Summer is officially drawing to a close, and that means a lot of last-chance pool days, BBQs, and campfires with friends. Of course, this also means that a lot of us are cranking up our ACs to keep cool. This may keep us comfortable, but it will always lead to high energy bills. Fortunately, one of the benefits of PowerView® Automation is reduced energy usage. With PowerView® Automation, you can schedule your shades to close at midday to keep your home shaded and safe from overheating and protected from damaging UV rays. With PowerView® Automation, there’s less need for air conditioning throughout the year and more opportunity to reduce your energy usage. This is just one reason why you will love adding PowerView® Automation to your home.

Benefit 2: Voice Control

With as much running around as we do on the daily, the last thing we want to do is get off the couch during movie night or get up early on the weekends to adjust our window treatments to catch the sun as its light bothers our views. Fortunately, another one of the benefits of PowerView® Automation is that you can use your voice to control your shades and blinds. Using your smart home device, you can use a simple verbal command, you can control the window treatments in your home without getting up from your comfy spot in bed or on the couch. The voice control feature is also a great party trick when you have friends and family over!

Benefit 3: Custom Operating Options

Variety is the spice of life, which is why PowerView® Automation features custom operating options. In addition to using your voice, you can also operate your window treatments with your smartphone or tablet via the PowerView® App or Pebble® Control. With these devices, you can create customized Scenes that move each of your shades to your preferred positions throughout the day. You can even schedule Scenes to move with the sunrise or sunset based on your home’s location. The best part? The App is compatible with Apple® and Android™ smartphones and tablets, so you can pair PowerView® Automation with your favorite devices. These are just a few more benefits of PowerView® Automation powered by Bluetooth.
