Your tiny house can be smart too! We will tell you how!

Transform your tiny house into a smart one! 

Just because of  their small size, tiny homes do not have as many build-in technological features as their larger counterparts.

Not because their owners don’t need or don’t want the technology. It’s just a hustle to make it fit your tiny home size. However, nowadays smart home technology has become more practical and affordable, even for tiny homes. Now having a tiny home is not an obstacle for a technologically advanced house. With the rise in popularity of tiny homes and revolutionary technology, now these two can be combined.
One of the great benefits of a tiny home is the cost savings. Because space is so much smaller than the average house, you’ll have lower electricity bills, smaller monthly payments, and lower upkeep costs.
According to Houston-based property management company Green Residential, the notion has always been that the bigger the house you have, the more successful you must be. But many people who live in big houses end up putting most of their money towards their home and they don’t have the financial resources to do other things.
In this blog, we will introduce some of the smart home items that will work even for your tiny homes.

Security/Home Access

Lighting

Regardless of your home size, security is crucial. Hikvision offers these facial recognition technologies to unlock the front door for your safety and convenience. It allows you to see who’s at the door and let your plumber or housemaid in when you are not even home.

Lighting in a tiny house

Some people tend to underestimate the importance of lightning in tiny houses. Lightning can make your space appear bigger.
Besides, due to specific smart lightning everyone in the house can relax and enjoy.

With smart lighting, you can change the atmosphere in your home with the touch of a button.

In case your spouse likes to sit up late while you prefer to go to bed early, you can regulate the lighting in your house so that you both can enjoy your ‘’family time’ at home.
You can also program it so that you use less energy and save more money.

Climate Control


Another trait of a small space is that it can heat up or cool down quickly.

With the Nest Thermostats, you can keep your room temperature comfortable. All you have to do is to use your smart home device that also controls everything in the home.
The Nest Thermostat works in most homes. It figures out what system you have and turns on the right features for you.

 Entertainment

If you live in a tiny house, you need to figure out the best way for you to downsize and simplify.
Tiny homeowners will prefer using a smart device to control their TV instead of the typical four remotes. In that case, there will be less clutter in the house.
And of course, effortless control of their entertainment. Who doesn’t want that after a harsh workday?
